Drama's picks

[Johndrama]

I honestly felt good about the slovenian picks, maybe picks like celje and mura could've been left alone, but that's why I went smaller on them. What can I say...I was on the wrong side of a 20.00 odd, and I can only call myself extremely unlucky.

Seeing how I'm fade material today I'll share my mlb picks so people can make money betting on the other side.

I'm on Texas rangers for 2u and I'll be on the pirates for 5u. (3.5u straight win, 1.5 on the -1.5 line)

[Gamblan]

Oh boiiiiii, sorry to add a loss to that ridiculous slovenian bunch, for all of us.
I really liked all of your slovenian plays but unfortunately one of those day's.
Esteghlal should've at least given us a refund sigh.......

No worries, you didn't make us follow you

Summary 5/22/2013

2.5u Koper -0.5 -> -2.5
2u Koper -0.5 (0-1) @ 1.8 -> -2
2u esteghlal -1 @ 1.9 ->-2
Triglav +0.5; 0.7u -> -0.7
Aluminij - Celje - > 1u @ 2.1 -> -1

Overall profit : +4.32

Spent fuckking 5 mins trying to fuckking color aluminij as red and overall as purple but this shit wont let me, I'm bolding everything like a retard

EDIT : it worked, finally I look like the soviet union

[Johndrama]

Did surprisingly good in baseball yesterday, too bad the pirates didnt cover the -1.5 ah, lost a few on NYY but I parlayed hockey's penguins with red sox, also hit some 2.8 odd on astros and by the end of the night I was down not so much.

I'm not adding any profit or loses from other sports, I'll keep this thread full football + for me it's not about the money it's more about the accuracy; in baseball for me it's 50% tailing someone, 25% my own research 25% intuition, I'm basically throwing darts while in soccer I choose 'carefully'.

I felt like blogging when I woke up, pour my soul and say how much this thread/site/community helped me maintaining my confidence and not fall into the pit of anger and despair, throwing units on blackjack after a losing day. But fuckk that, I'm not saying any of that I haven't lost enough for me to start getting emotional.

Be right back with todays picks

Oh man editing on this annoys me so much, everytime I copy and paste a play for my summary it is all in bold and I can't change it, or the colour, so I have to type all of it out anyway

Not that hard. Select the section you want to un-bold and click the B in the tool bar, to change color select and click the A, drop down box will show, select color.

[Johndrama]

appreciate the help, I did that, it seems it actually worked but the changes do not appear when quick replying, the preview showed me it still wasnt bolded or coloured but after I posted it, it showed correctly.

Yeah I know, but when I highlight it and do that it doesn't change. (This is in 'Go Advanced' as well). It's probably just my browser

[Johndrama]

nah man I get the same shit, actually the browser takes your command and it bolds/unbolds but you do not see the change until you post it

Wolfsburg Women - Lyon Women -> Lyon -1 @ 2.00 ( 0-0 ) HT; 2u

[Johndrama]

classic johnnyfade rofl

[Johndrama]

lyon scored for at least once for 32 games I think. Fuckk the books

[Johndrama]

Well...I was on hoffenheim -1.5 and took the draw in the korona kielce game when they were leading 1-0; unfortunately put another 2u on lyon both to score : yes in the 80th min.

Gonna keep this official and let today's card have just the 2u loss on lyon. I always make a lot of last minute bets in-play and don't bother writing them off; I'll never count hidden bets towards the profit, if they hit, cause then I could just come and say hey guys I had 3-1 correct score @ hoffenheim.

Have some plays on baseball and I see some games I like for tomorrow, more on that later.

[onemoregoal]

You're from Belgium right? Whats the deal with White Star Woluwe? I read they are fukked financially and were fielding youth players as their main players were on strike... is still the case?
They have been consistently shit for a long time but odds are still very good. The only game they won out of the last 12 was a narrow 3-2.

I honestly have no clue, I'm paying less and less attention to the belgium clubs, I'm only somewhat interested in what the top clubs are doing. From a betting perspective, the league is trash and it's slowly becoming a coin flip league.

Wolfsburg Women - Lyon Women -> Lyon -1 @ 2.00 ( 0-0 ) HT; 2u

Overall : +2.32

[Johndrama]

5/24/2013:

Stromsgodset - Aalesund -> -1 @ 2.00; 3u. Now that molde seems to be out of the picture in what concerns winning the league, the hosts battle rosenborg for the top position. Aalesund had a impressive start to the season, having a decent away record so far but I'm afraid their true away form will be shown sooner or later. On the other hand Stromsgodset really impressed in their away win to newly promoted start, and with rosenborg's draw with molde, stromsgodset should be smart and further strengthen their position with a win today.
Adding Stromsgodset -1.5 @ 2.4; 1u

Laval - Chateauroux -> laval -1 @ 2.00;1u. I'm playing today the favorites to escape the relegation zone; laval only need 1 point but the guests are missing half their team and while I see them being a strong opponent their away form has been awful ( not a single win, drawing half and losing half of their away games ).

Le mans - Lens -> Le mans -0.75 @ 1.95; 1u. Lens starting a mix of half regulars half U17, last time they did this, they were trashed 7-0 away to guigamp. Leaning on home win.

[Johndrama]

adding live:

Tours - Monaco; Monaco -0.25 @ 1.95; 1u (1-0) HT

Guigamp - Dijon; Dijon +0.25 @ 1.95; 1u ( 1-0 ) HT

Dinamo Bucuresti - Viitorul; Viitorul +0.25; 0.5u (1-1) HT; Viitorul to win 0.25u @ 4.00

Any tip for tomorrow, guys?

[Johndrama]

5/25/2013

Toppserien Women :

Amazon Grimstad W away to valerenga W : Grimstad impressed last game at their home defeat to kobotn W but they fought hard and perhaps deserved a point, a point that I'm thinking they will take today. They road performance are not that great, having some creativity in mid and front but really awful defense.
Picks : Grimstad +0.5 @ 1.75; 0.5u // Over 3.5 @ 2.2; 0.5u

Roa W - Kvinner W. Roa were crown contenders, but they've been stripped of their top stars, players that have now moved on to LSK Kvinner. Roa is not the top team they were last season and without their stars they can no longer pretend they are.
Kvinner -1.5 @ 2.00; 1u

Kolbotn W - Stabaek W: the fight between the queens, a win by the hosts today would tie them to stabaek point-wise; kolbotn W are very strong this season and it would be no shock if they would finish first, but to achieve that they would have to get pass strong obstacles like Stabaek W to prove themselves. Their last meeting ended 2-2 in 2012 a game were Kolbotn led 2-0 @ HT.
Pick : Kolbotn W +0.5 @ 2.4; 1u // Kolbotn at half-time @ 4.4; 0.3u

[Johndrama]

Tippeligaen :

Molde - Honefoss. Shameful position by our last season champions, they will no doubt someday bounce back, but I'm hoping that day is not today. While Honefoss might not seem to pose a huge threat, they're a team that could put a huge performance if they so choose to.
Honefoss +1.25 @ 1.85; 1u. Honefoss to win @ 7.00; 0.25u

Valerenga - Rosenborg. The guests must be frustrated by their last game with molde, a game where they outnumbered the guests 11 to 10 for the most part score an offside goal and only manage to grab a point. With Stromsgodset leading the table, I think it's time for the guests to grab more than 1 point. I would take them to win @ 1.9, a value pick in my eyes but I'm off put they performance vs sarpsborg where they led 2-0 and then immediately threw that lead away.
My pick : over 2.75 @ 1.95

Yo, you alive?

sup man, yeah I'm alive, just woke up yesterday and had no internet. I honestly had the best day yesterday in months, hitting st liege, 4/5 in norway, liberec to win@ 5.00, crazy shit. Had to go to an internet cafe to place some bets and missed out on spain and france, when I saw sociedad and madrid, I mean if there was a day when the over would've hit and hit big, that was it....shed a tear when I saw the score. Got my internet back and running half an hour ago.

Tempted to play Ham-kam over. The line is currently at 1.55 so I'll wait live if I can grab it.

Kolbotn W +0.5 @ 2.4; 1u // Kolbotn at half-time @ 4.4; 0.3u -> loss -1.3
Honefoss +1.25 @ 1.85; 1u. Honefoss to win @ 7.00; 0.25u -> loss -1.25

Damn women play, spent 2 hours figuring what to play, wanted only the straight win, then just the over, then both, then confused on the amount, wanted to split the amount even, eh.

5/29/2013

I'm breaking my rule of not betting on romanians but fuckk em, the season is ending.

CFR Cluj - U Cluj -> This is a huge derby, both team have nothing to fight for which makes things bloodier. These 2 sides have hated themselves for a long time and this rivalry is not your usual one; you see cluj was once under hungarian occupation so now the population is mixed, you have your normal romanians and your hungarian speaking ones. Now I don't know how they got the idea but it is said that CFR is the "hungarian" side while U is the "pure" one; probably a poor choice of words and I'd get stabbed on a romanian forum. So this is your usual derby mixed with a demographic one, things will get heated.
Now regarding the squad, there is a cup final coming so people will field youngsters mixing in regulars, it's impossible to pick a winning side but judging from recent results with these squads ( 2-4 U - Petrolul ; 3-3 Astra - CFR ) I'm leaning on overs. People tend to get barbaric on these kind of occasions and we might see something similar to the steaua - dinamo game where people threw mobile phones at the players. Read that last part again. Yeah.
My pick : over 2.5 @ 2.1; 0.5 u

Petrolul - Gaz Metan Medias -> This is the kind of game and place where you can and should show your better team, better strat, coach, budget etc. I was impressed with petrolul's away win at U cluj, I would've leaned on U cluj +1.25 on that occasion but petrolul was the better side and I do not see gaz metan getting anything here today.
Petrolul -1.5 @ 2.00; 1.5u

Pandurii - Astra -> Pandurii seem to be exhausted, and the schedule is not helping either, they are physically and mentally broken, the pressure of their position in the league is killing them, their away game to chiajna concordia showed that, they were equalized by an offside goal by a 10 man team, it didn't count , but they barely got the 3points. Astra were robbed when playing CFR, the referees played a bigger role then they should have, a lot of scandal was born out of this and today the game might be tighter.
No bet for me, pandurii's home record is impressive, if astra scores, picking 1x might be a good bet.

Brann - Mjondalen -> I'll be riding Brann's unreal record at home this game. This being a cup game is the only thing keeping me from making this a 5u play, still brann should easily win against an inferior adeccoligaen side
Brann -1.5 @ 1.9; 2u.

[stemellor]

Nice to see you back John.

Might well join you in the Brann game, looks great odds.

Agree with your assessment on Pandurii. I've been itching to play Astra +0.25 at evens. I think Astra have enough to maybe sneak a win a and qualify for europe. Pandurii just need a draw and that can be a dangerous mindset. Astra know they need to go for a win and I have all 3 outcomes about the same probability based on current form. Astra seem the pick here to me.


Any interest in Finland tonight? I've got 3 picks if you're interested.

[Akatana]

Nice work John. I am certainly tailing the Brann play, and i am tempted to take Petrolul but i'm scared shitless of any romanian pick lol I'll make my mind up in the next 1 hour, BOL to you both

[stemellor]

Brann odds down to ~1.8 now. No play for me at this price. Good luck John, glad you jumped on this at a good price.

[Johndrama]

@stemellor
to answer your question about the finnish plays, I really dislike that league,I used to back mariehamn on several occasions for unknown reasons but that's about it. I was tempted to play the over in the inter turku game and I still might.
I saw in your thread that you took astra +0.25, ballsy play but a good one, you should at least have the referees on your side
Gl with your plays though.

@Akatana
proceed with caution regarding the romanians, I'm standing now and asking myself why did I make a 1.5u play and not a smaller one on petrolul, but in a 'normal' league this play is the recommended one.

[Akatana]

Thanks mate. I wish you the best of luck with the romanian play's and i sincerely do hope and think that you will cash on them. But for me i'm sticking to the Norwegian Cup i'm with you on the Brann play and i'm also on Tromso aswell. Later in the night i will be focusing on the Brasileiro. Bol to us all, may this be one clean wednesday for us.
