    TheYank's Picks
    Hey how's it going guys. I'm new to forums, and thought I would introduce myself. I'm in my last year of college and have been following European Football for 4-5 years now, and thought I would give it a go betting. I am definitely not a high roller, I only have a $105 bankroll. Right now I am only doing this for fun, but I want to learn and if something comes of it in the way of money I might increase my bankroll in the future.

    Right now I am going to just bet on Premier League and UEFA Champions/Europa League. My plan is to lay down no more than $20 on a single bet and try to manage my money conservatively. Who knows, maybe at the end of the year I will have a enough money for a wild night on the town or something.

    So I will be posting my picks here. Any advice from experienced bettors is welcomed, so feel free to criticize or offer me solid bets if you have them.

    Regards,

    TheYank

      Fulham PK or under 2.5

      If I had a 108$ bankroll i wouldn't even scratch my balls over the bets I make. Assuming you place about 5$ a bet. You should increase your bankroll to about 500$ that'll motivate you to take it serious. You can easily lose and chase, and end up reloading the next day, but you'll prolly avoid that. GL. Remember, there's other leagues to bet on..

      Good leagues on overs:

      Finland
      Norway
      Sweden


      Good leagues on unders, French National League.. Argentina..


      Look at those next weekend and see what ya can do. Premier League is tough to read.

        I will also bet on International Matches. I just laid down my first bet, on Mexico to advance past New Zealand to the World Cup. Can't believe the odds I got on this.

            How long do they have to take it back? How can they void a placed bet?

                      Could that be Mexico to advance via shootout or during ET?

                        Didn't say anything about Extra Time. It only said for Mexico or New Zealand to advance.

                          I like the value here. I don't see any reason why PSG shouldn't cover against the Belgian side Anderlecht with Cavani and Ibra upfront. Verratti and Motta should be back as well.

                                I like your CL picks, I'm leaning the same way..

                                CSKA not in good form, PSG and Man City should both win.

                                Not fully sure what to make of Schalke-Chelsea but don't think Chelsea will lose

                                  Chelsea needs to not lose, same with Schalke, so I think at the least they will draw and play conservatively. Also, considering Schalke's injury woes(Hoger, Kevin-Prince Boateng, Jermaine Jones, Timo Hildebrand, Chinedu Obasi, Anthony Annan, Jefferson Farfan and Klaas-Jan Huntelaar) I think Chelsea could very well win. I am tempted to lay down a straight up win for Chelsea here, but probably won't. I like the PK here for sure.

                                      Too easy. Never doubted Fulham. But then I did go for PK to be safe.

                                          Damn, should have bet the ML on Chelsea. Torres scores in first 5 minutes. Lets she if Schalke can respond.

                                            Should have gone with Chelsea ML, but I will take the PK.

                                            2-0-0. 100% after two days, the streak is still alive haha. PSG and Man City play tomorrow. Hopefully I can round out a successful week tomorrow.

                                                  Didn't lay down any picks for Premier League today. I like the action tomorrow though. Here are my picks:

                                                    Two late goals by the two Spaniards to close out the EPL weekend . Soldado and Torres with the late goals lock up wins for their respective teams.
                                                    Torres, what a late goal, when I thought it was in doubt, the most unlikely guy came through in the clutch and redeemed himself from his miss earlier today.

                                                    What a way to close out the week. If only Newcastle didn't lose, I would have gotten a 100% hit rate in my first week. I will take these results though for sure.


                                                    6-0-1

                                                    +$67.36 or 64% return for the week.

                                                      English League Cup is a toss up, and I am skeptical on the outcome of most of these matches. However, I like the value behind a Fulham PK in their match tomorrow against Leicester City at +140.

                                                      Even though they are going against a team that has the potential to move up to the Premier League next year in Leicester Cup, I think Fulham outclasses them(Leicester is also going into tomorrow without their top striker David Nugent) and has more to play for(to redeem themselves from their performance against Southampton and too stay in contention for some hardware). With their firepower upfront(Berbatov, Bent), I think this pick provides good value, and is too good to pass up. They have gone with their strongest XI in their last few League Cup matches, and beaten stronger teams such as Everton, I see no reason why they shouldn't win here at full strength.

                                                          Ok question about soccer and I'm sorry to sound ignorant, but I know little about the game. Thought about tailing this for some day action, but I guess I'm missing something. Here's what my site says



                                                          11010 Leicester City

                                                          SP pk,-½ -107 ML+115

                                                          11011 Fulham

                                                          Pk,+½ -113. ML +215

                                                          TP Ov 2½,3 -106 Un 2½,3 -114


                                                          DW +230

                                                          So question is where is the +140? What am I missing?

                                                            your book isnt giving you the option of PK, they have PK/+0.5 as a split bet. So if Fulham draw the game your bet is half win but the op isnt, (his will push) - however your price is a lot less.

                                                              Damn, I thought there at the beginning Fulham would pull through on that early goal. It was a disappointing outcome, but from a pure viewing perspective, it was insane with 7 goals total and 2 goals in the last 7 minutes. I thought when Fulham pulled even in the 86th minute I would at least push. But what can I say Leicester deserved to go through. They were the better team today. This makes my second loss of the betting campaign.

                                                              6-0-2

                                                              I am thinking of staying away from League Cups games from now on. However, I am tempted by the Man City-Newcastle fixture tomorrow. I am thinking of going on the Man City ML, but will wait for the line-ups tomorrow.

                                                              Does anyone see value in either of tomorrow's games?
