    Holy shit, talk about being over-defensive. You're right that I know little about soccer, and wrong about just about everything else that you've attempted to assume about me. But that's not even important.

    I wasn't trying to be negative at all, and if you go back and look at my post at the beginning of this conversation that should be obvious.

    The point I was trying to make is that you would probably be better off not trying to hit a certain number, but instead playing plays as usual as it seems to be working for you. And I still believe that. If you disagree, that's fine and it's your thread and your opinion -- I was just voicing mine as well. Didn't think you'd take it so hard.

    Anyhow, I'll still wish you luck even after all that bullshit, as it seems you probably just misunderstood me.

    Later, guy.

    I am kicking myself for being late to the party and not discovering your thread sooner. You are one of the most impressive pickers on here and hope you continue. I'm tailing from here on out.

    Your first comment wasn't what irked me, it was the one that was quoted.

    The first one I looked at as a form of constructive criticism but it did puzzle me somewhat that you would make that comment if you knew the situation here - me targeting 100u profit, which is why I questioned it with an emoticon rather than diving in head first. Your intentions may well have been good up until then. Once I explained it to you that should've set things straight & it's happy days - you then proceed to fire back a comment that to my eyes had a condescending undertone which is why you got the response that followed.

    Don't think I'm being over-defensive at all, I just don't take crap from anyone which is something that you've now come to realize.
    If by fact your comment of "you also acknowledged that you were trying too hard to specifically do that." was whole hearted good fun then more power to you because your choice of words was terrible.

    One leg not looking good at the half - Guiseley down 0-2 at home against one of the worst away sides in the league, I think I had a play on them 2 days ago as well so maybe I've somehow jinxed myself, was actually contemplating leaving that out as the north & south conference in England doesn't have live scores updated until ht / ft, which is a pain in itself & you can imagine my astonishment to see them down 2 at the half at home when they have been so reliable this season.
    Was actually going to go with o2 in Tottenham for the exact same price instead but decided to go with the former, something I'll probably regret unless they Guiseley can turn it on in the 2nd half.
    If they don't come back I'll refer them to the black list & not bother including them in these again.
    Other legs look fine as it's just Newcastle pushing for that elusive breakthrough at home to cellar dwellers Bolton.
    First time tailers - sorry can't win 'em all, I'll have one posted soon for some games starting later.

    Well my fears are overturned in the previous post with Guiseley fighting back to win 3-2 after being down 2 at the break.

    Despite that good news the parlay was smoked in a short spell at Goodison Park with Everton / Sunderland staying at 1-0 until 75' with Everton running riot with 3 goals in the next 5 minutes from Pienarr, Osman & Anichebe for it to end 4-0. They finally decide to ship in a few goals at home on the worst possible time for me although they have been under machines this year & I've profited from this so the fact that they were the sole spoilers of the parlay doesn't deter me from backing unders in their games in the future.
    Just tough luck Sunderland decided to switch off defensively for 5 minutes.

    Grading this one earlier than usual because I've got a little 4 teamer here to try hit my mini goal tonight, game in Greece ha now just started so unfortunately guys won't be able to be tail that unless you play it live.

    EPL Aston Villa - Stoke 2 or 3 goals / $1.95

    Unfortunately I've been out & didn't have the chance to get this in earlier for people to tail, all games start in 5 minutes, not sure if you could get a live line on these as it's doubtful games in the 2nd league in Macedonia have coverage.
    I'll grade the last one with an updated record in a minute.

    I think the ES Setif - CR Belouizad game was postponed, but the others are there in the live section.

    No, it wasn't, my bad.

    Well I went 0-3 yesterday with every parlay losing by just a single leg in unlucky circumstances, 1st up it was Everton scoring 3 goals in 5 minutes when the under was looking safe at 1-0 with 15 minutes 'til full time.

    Then you've got the above parlay with the game in Poland playing sole spoiler as it was a push until the very last play of the game with the home side up 2-1 & then in the 4th minute of injury time Lech Poznan score off an intended cross that the keeper misjudged & subsequently flew over his head & into the back of the net.
    Bad way to spoil me hitting 100u in here but unfortunately it gets worse as I played this one in the screenshot below later in the night to include the game at Craven Cottage between Fulham & Chelsea, a game in Argentina & some NBA games mixed in. Unfortunately I'm a victim of my own greediness as seems to be the case when I miss the more lengthy parlays by a single game.




    You can't blame me for adding the losing leg though as Toronto had clamped down on defense while not scoring much in the process throughout the 5 previous games played in April.

    My selection was under 195 as I teased it up to that number with the o/u set at 188.

    The total score from their previous 5 games was 191, 179, 177, 164 & 166, Indiana also play good defense.
    I was watching the game and the live lines throughout & the o/u never went above 182 which is below the pre-match market of 188 let alone me teasing it up 7 points to u195. Unfortunately with about 2 minutes to go in the 4th quarter both sides suddenly were hitting every shot & even with that being the case it was still safe for the under until the last 8 seconds. You'd think I'd get used to bad beats but posting some every now & then in here makes me feel a little better, ha.

    Let's hope my fortunes turn around today!

    Parlay record 11-30 +90.56u

    Once again it's a bit too greedy on my end but when you look at it closer it's more annoying than anything. It's amazing how far Wozniacki has fallen this year in terms of consistency after dominating the women's tour the past 2 years at world #1, she's down to #6 now but to be fair she was playing a player 87 places below her in the world rankings @ #93 & someone she would usually annihilate playing in her home tournament (also being one that she's won the last 2 years). Instead she decides to play like a complete bum in the first set to scrape it 7-6 which toasts any chance of my under hitting, last time I'm adding women's tennis in here & I'm pretty annoyed because this hit would've sent me well above 100u & instead of celebrating that I'm left berating the effort put forth by her.

    Of course the soccer legs cashed easily so I'll have to try to stick to my strongest sport from now on in here.

    Seems I'm heading in the wrong direction in terms of reaching triple figures the past day.
    At the risk of going 0-2 in here for the 2nd day straight I'm trying this lengthy one mainly boosted by the "2 or 3" goals market both in the Premier League & Serie A, the odds look a bit daunting on the surface but the rest of the parlay is cushioned by asian lines as always. I was initially leaning towards toward Blackburn on the handicap but I like this market better so I may wait for a live play on that game to choose a side. Definite lean towards Blackburn though is my thoughts on that match as Liverpool is in a classic 'look ahead' spot with a big derby game coming up against fierce rivals Everton in the semi-finals of the FA Cup. Surely they'll see this as a big opportunity to get closer to adding more silverware in the Cabinet this season after their fortuitous Carling Cup win & with the chances of European football next season all but gone you'd think Kenny Dalglish will see it as a chance to release the pressure that has been put on him following their recent poor form. Reina is serving the 2nd game of the suspension from the Red card he picked up at Newcastle for head-butting James Perch so Dalgish will be forced to look to reserve keeper Doni again - who up until the weekend had only ever played 1 game for his club (a pre-season friendly) due to Reina's insistence on playing every game.
    Didn't catch the game on the weekend at Anfield to gauge how the new keeper went but if anything bts may be another option in that match as I see Rovers getting on the scoresheet at the very least as they desperately need the 3 points in the battle to avoid relegation.

    I've broken the rule in my previous post of only playing soccer in here pretty much straight away as I've added an MLB game that starts in an hour but Kershaw (the pitcher) @ home is easy money.

    Unfortunately I'm late on this one again so a couple legs have now just started with the rest to kickoff in about 10 minutes.

    EPL Blackburn - Liverpool 2 or 3 goals / $2.00
    ENG C Reading +0 / $1.55
    ENG CONF Fleetwood Town +0 / $1.35
    ENG CONF/s Havant & W - Salisbury u4 / $1.20
    SCO D1 Dundee +0 / $1.21
    SPL Barcelona win to nil / $1.61
    IRE/N Linfield +0,-0.5 / $1.30
    ITA 1 Chievo - AC Milan 2 or 3 goals / $2.00
    MLB LA Dodgers ML / $1.45

    Total odds: $37.12
    Risking 1u to win 36.12u

    Here's to some better luck on this one.

    Lucky didn't play blackburn on the handicap, down 0-2 with Maxi netting a brace in the first 15 minutes, guess I just have to hope that Liverpool try to defend what they've already got but it could go either way really.

    Nothing to say here, the 2 riskiest legs lose in the 2/3 goals market with games ending 2-3 at Blackburn, & 0-1 in Italy, rest of parlay cashes.
    Oh well, officially cold yesterday & today but 2 bad days in a row rarely happens so will refocus & hopefully come back strong tomorrow.
