    Glasslike's football picks
    Hey SBR forum posters

    I'm a 3rd Year Pharmacy Student with a bankroll of $10000 betting with $100 units mainly on Soccer and on the odd occasion other things.

    I live in New Zealand during study and in the holidays live with my parents in Australia (Melbourne and Brisbane). I've been sports and greyhound betting for almost 2 years (only 19 years old) and I love it.

    So I've decided I want to post the picks I make on this forum.

    I have not system as per se but I research all the bets I make before I make them.

    I'll be starting off slow for the next 2 days because of exams but after that I'll make more bets everyday (I have nothing else to do during the holidays)

    My book is usually TAB (New Zealand) but will transfer my bankroll to Pinnacle once I go back to Australia for the holidays.

    I'll start off with 3 bets for today

    1 - Spanish Football: Athletic Bilbao (2units to win 2.7)

    2 - A-League: Brisbane Roar (5units to win 2.75)

    3 - MLB: St Louis v Texas-GM 6, 7 and under (1unit to win 0.75units)


    Thanks for reading my thread, and have a good day.

      Hello there, and welcome to the forum. What soccer leagues do you follow? I assume the A-league is your best sport? Looking forward to your picks!

            In my opinion, that Bilbao play is a dicey proposition. Both of Atl Madrid's away losses come against top five squads on the table. And, with the exception of the 5-nil rolling by Barcelona, Atl Madrid has been stingy with giving up goals. In this spot, maybe the draw is a better proposition. Definitely a better price. GL

              I suppose betting of teams in the middle of the table is always dicey, you can never really know for certain. But with Atletico Madrid's away record I think it will be a win for Athletic Bilbao. Price wise you may be correct though but already bet so I can't back down now.

              Thanks for your opinion.

                I think that's a solid bet. I was already on it, and seeing you on it makes me like it even more. I also like Espanyol, for what it's worth.

                  Espanyol is on my parlay for SBR Sportsbook along with Palermo, Athletic Bilbao, Zenit, and Colorado. Not real money so not posting as an official bet though.

                  Good Luck on your bet(s) Semper Fidelis

                    I also have those same teams, minus Colorado. I jut recently started wagering on soccer, so I admit I don't know as much and rely on people like you that know much more than me because you follow it more closely! I'm American, so naturally I know these sports much better. By the way, my girlfriend is a pharmacist, so I know you have a good life ahea of you! Lol Good luck with your beta as well, and I look forward to seeing and discussing picks with you in the future.

                              We did pretty well tonight! I had the over and the cardinals as well-I only lost one bet tonight, and that was on a stupid NHL game. That one game cost me my parlay which would've paid $1500. Oh well, I guess I couldn't complain-I'm significantly better than I was this morning. Now just trying to decide how much to put on Brisbane...

                                  have you looked at tomorrows EPL card Glass? I think Man U is going to make an example out of Everton tomorrow after getting spanked by City. Any thoughts?

                                    Hey there guys. I have a horrible book, they only allowed me to wager to win $250 on the money line and the spread, so I was only able to make $500. But that's better than winning nothing! I also had Bochum, Leverkusen, and NAC Breda, so it was a pretty good day! Haven't fared so well tonight though...

                                      As far as EPL goes, it seems that united should whip up on everton, but I don't know enough about that league, and soccer in general, to say that with much confidence. Although I have been picking good games lately. I'd defer to glasslike and the others here for that one.

                                                All bets have different juice...odds.. The team he is playing/backing will pay you 2.9 Units if you bet 2 Units... If you bet 1 Unit you will win 1.45 Units..
                                                Your unit can be anything you want.. $10...$20....$1,0000....
                                                Basically all it say is if you bet $20 you will win $29 dollars
                                                He is doing all this to keep track of his winning over the course of the season..

                                                  It means you bet 2 units, and the odds are such that if you win you get 2.9 back. The more heavily favored is the team you are betting, the less you'll get in return for your bet. In this example, if you wager $200, you'll win $290. Notice the EPL one with tottenham-they are currently a -300 favorite at my book, so of course you'd get less because they are more heavily favored. In this case a $200 wager won't even net you $100-that's the inherent risk in betting on heavy favorites.
