Just adding to this - I'd love to be your mate at the start of the match. I'd have taken your bet of 300, then bet 300 on bet365 for Tendulkar to score less than 37.Not sure on betfair, but at the start of the innings on bet365 you could've got even money (which is the same as your bet) on Tendulkar to score 37 or less (which obviously gives you more chance to win).
In other words, the market suggests your mate jipped you.
Only you can make an injustice of 7 runs on a bet sound like I made the worst decision of my life.Just adding to this - I'd love to be your mate at the start of the match. I'd have taken your bet of 300, then bet 300 on bet365 for Tendulkar to score less than 37.
His potential results would then be as follows:
Tendulkar scores less than 30 - he breaks even
Tendulkar scores more than 36 - he breaks even
Tendulkar scores 30-36 - he wins 600.
Awesome situation to be in. Narrow margin for potential win but a no-risk bet with a potentially massive reward.
Now now. Don't be like that.The book needs to be thrown at Tendulkar for running on the pitch. What a cheat.
Presuming you didn't catch much of the Ashes ?Wow, Bresnan's bowling has improved massively since the Ashes.
If he gets out for 33 you will hate me so much.Only you can make an injustice of 7 runs on a bet sound like I made the worst decision of my life.
Sadly missed by none and sundry.Vicleggie banned. Well that's a shame.
Not really the thread for it - but in a nutshell he got banned for three posts in which he plainly and directly insulted a member rather than playing the post. Got an infraction each time. He will be back next week.What'd he get banned for? Thought he was... adequate... on his return.
Why?Presuming you didn't catch much of the Ashes ?
