    Soccer picks 2011. Go Fulham!

    1-2-10
    Start with 100 dollars

    I know it's against conventional wisdom to start risking the majority of your money on your first pick, but I feel good about taking Rangers +115 for 75.

    The Glasgow Celtic Defence is filled with players who haven't played together and their forwards have a paltry 4 goals combined. Forward James Forrest is 19 and he faces an experienced back line in Rangers. However, Patrick McCourt is a threat and Rangers should keep him marked.

    Vladmir Weiss will get his first start in the Old Firm Derby and the on loan midfielder from Manchester City should thrive in this environment. Kenny Miller has a total of 21 goals in the Premier League so far and should add to his total.

    Hopefully I don't make a fool of myself on my first pick. But I'll take the Rangers to go top and win the Old Firm at the Ibrox in front of their home fans.

    75/86.75
    Rangers +115
    this fixture, it always plays host to a cracking atmosphere.

    Risky business - placing most of your bankroll on one play.

    Yeah, bad pick. Risky business for sure. I'm not a sharp in the least, just like to watch soccer on the weekends.

    Go to google and read up on bankroll management. If you stuck with good management you should only be down 10 dollars right now, using 5% as 1 unit.

    Thanks for the tips. I reloaded 50 dollars and hit a three team parlay. Celtics -3 1/2 2 (H), Miami +18, and Seattle on the ML +155. 25/195. I also did Seattle plus 3 at -110 and parlayed Fulham +115. 25/77.64. Come on Fulham!


    Here is parlay today. Maybe I shouldn't do soccer.

    #28504539: Parlay (01-02-2011 19:21) Seattle Seahawks ( +155) (FG) W 195.44 Boston Celtics (-3½ -120) (H2) Miami Florida (+18 -110) (FG)
