The Impossible(?) AFL Multi Thread.

[Selective Retention]

The Tab have a footy margins bet now.

Works like a condensed footy quad but on all 9 games.

Draw, 1-39, 40+ on each team for every game. Paid 30k plus last week.

Worth a look, and potentially a better way to place one of these.

Didn't bet until after ANZAC Day so only an 8 leg placed this week, got a $20 freebie and chucked it on after making other bets for the week.

Carlton - Under
WB - Under
North - Over
St.Kilda - Over
Geelong - Under
Hawthorn - Under
WCE - Under
Adelaide - Under

20 @ $440 (sportsbet)

Thats a nice bet.

Surely you would hedge going into showdown???

esp as Port is more than evens.

an easy $4k and no sweating !!!!

Let me know because Im curious whether you would let it ride, its different if games are played simultaneously there is risk involved, but the showdown is the last game of your multi and arguably the most riskiest of the lot!~

 

[jezah]

Am I missing something? Talking about hedging the last leg when only one leg has been completed (out of an 8 leg multi)? wtf!

 

[Ilike2play]

I'm assuming his saying...if it gets to last leg..do u plan to hedge....

 

[jezah]

Yeah I know...but what's the point (about discussing it) at this early stage?

Nice way to jinx it for him
He got 2 out of the first 5 right lol

Well done

Well for starters Im a punter not a gambler, there is a difference, in my vocabulary.

I plan and execute my bets for reasons that are well thought out and planned.

Secondly out of all his selections I felt the selection of the Power was the questionable one, disregarding the under/overs options.

Given his outlay and return, personally I would have planned the outcomes, ie. that the last game of this mega leg bet if all pans out for the first 8 is dependent on the final game which IMO is a 50:50 game, personally I wouldnt let $8k ride on a bet for such a small outlay and would rather guarantee a nice profit or similarly taken the Power with +24.5 or +39.5 start so even if the Crows do win i could still end up with the $8k and plus any extra money should the Crows win by less than the margins stated above.

lol, I hope your kidding about jinxing him.

Superstitions and the alignment of the planets plays no part EVER in my punting!

then why would you include that leg at all then, just let it be a 7 leg multi

 

[twarby]

don't bother lenny

Whats the difference between a punter and a gambler?

One was a former Australian cricket captain and the other is Ricky Ponting.

Hey guys need your help.
Ive put 15 dollars on a super multi that has 10 legs.
I selected system 9.
I have gotten 5 right so far and one wrong with 4 to go.
Is my bet still alive?

Yes still alive. What are the remaining legs/odds?

 

[tazaa]

Yes still alive. What are the remaining legs/odds?

Had Lakers negative line, into Spurs negative line, Ac Milan win, Inter over 2.5 goals, Juventus win, Tottenham over 2.5 goals, Barcelona over 2.5 goals, Mumbai indians win, into Nadal 2 sets and Azarenka win. Two legs wrong. Was tossing up between Azarenka and Fenebache and putting Tottenham 2 goal plus win. Oh well.

errr Note I wasnt the one that placed the bet to begin with!

Dont bother Twarby!

 

[Lensen]

i was referring to your explanation as to how you would place the bet, obviously you didn't place that particular bet but presumably you would place similar bets

the stupidity of the strategy doesn't change depending on what the legs are

well you presumed wrong champ!

 

[r32godzilla]

Damn you Saints and North. If they both won by 40+ like they were expected and I tipped I would have won 2.5k from a $5 multi :/
