Soccer picks - Saturday

[Wilforth]

Australia: Central Coast Mariners +125 1u
EPL: Fulham +100 1.5u
EPL: Manchester City +160 0.5u
Italy: Genoa -142 5u

Comment on Manchester City:
Man City are the last team you can rely on for a road win. But Portsmouth are in a funk right now and they've just sold Defoe, who was one of their best strikers. One anticipates they'll struggle upfront and Man City always carry a goal threat. While Man City have their defensive lapses, one feels Portsmouth aren't in a position to take advantage of Man City's poor defense. So for today only (and only today), let's put Man City to the test on the road. Don't stake much.

Hi Wilforth,

For Italy: Genoa -142 5u. Just so I am sure, you did mean Genoa vs Torina in Italy - Serie A, correct?

I am new to betting soccer and there are so many leagues and teams it gets confusing. I know the EPL very well but outside of that I don't know the other leagues (although I will learn). Since its a 5 unit pick I wanted to make sure that I was picking the right team to bet on. Pinnacle has Genoa -.5 @ -112. Which is much more favorable the Genoa -142 so I wanted to make sure I was betting the right game. I can also get Genoa PK and -.5 for -157.

Thanks in advance!

[Wilforth]

Yes, it's Genoa (Serie A, Italy). I used Bookmaker odds, which are ridiculous.

Time to open up a Pinnacle Account Wilforth. Thanks for the picks.

I'm just gonna play it safe again and go with my usual Liverpool pick at -270. It's basically a lock and I'm throwing down $1350 to win a cool $500

GL today Wilforth, just jumped on Genoa (+100) for 5u

[Wilforth]

BB,

Let's hope Genoa delivers. I see Ipswich failed to deliver for you.

I am following you on this bet Cheesehead. I can't see Liverpool actually losing or tying to Stoke City. This game will be something in the area of Liverpool 3 - Stoke City 1.

FYI - I bet Liverpool on the ML at -250 using Pinnacle.

Summary: 4 games postes, 2 weren't played.

Anyone know when those 2 games will be played? Pinnacle is holding a good sum of my cash as hostage.

weird i use the greek and when postponed they give money back immediately
you should check site rules on postponed games than you will know when you get money back.

[MJ]

Pinnacle's rule for postponed games is if its rescheduled within 4 days the bet stays active. If the game is rescheduled again and it is within 4 days it continues to stay active. This can go on for as long as the game continues to be rescheduled as long as its within 4 days each time.

One of the bad rules of Pinnacle but otherwise I love the sportsbook.
