Just looking at the Istanbul/bursaspor match, and it seems like the home side is in better form, but I don't really know this league very well. Does anyone like this match enough to place a wager on? Seems like more of a tossup. Thanks for your advice!

any game in this league is a tossup. one of the most corrupt footballing countries. Having said that, I like Istanbul BB. Big Istanbul side actually not doing too bad compared to past years. The odds DID kind of point that way for a little bit last night...4.00 for the I-BB ML but it was only 1.875 for the Asian Handicap of +0.5, with Bursaspor -0.5 at 2.05. That has since levelled to 1.925 a piece.

I would say this is either going to have goals, and BTS is a solid bet, or it will be 1-0, 2-0 for a side. I know that's very broad but that's the way these go. Having said that, I lean towards the former, I-BB can score, I think they may even net the first, making Bursa desperate for a goal. I'd say BTS @ 1.90 would prob be my play.

Always lots of cards too. They don't offer Reds all the time at my book but a few weeks back I was scouring my book, couldn't find 'em, sure enough like 4 reds in 6 matches or something.

That's my take man, BOL whatever you do. Let's try and get some more discussion about this match here boys!

Also, last 5, I-BB is W-D-L-W-W, but Bursa is W-D-L-W-D. And I-BB has a Fenerbache win

Thanks for the advice! Interested to hear what others have to say. The more I look at it the more it seems to be telling me to stay away! Lol

Only discussion necessary.

LOL so Mati bruv, let's cap the fix

Bluedragon · 02-20-12, 09:46 AM

Another thought....if this was IN Istanbul, the lines would be the same, just reversed IMHO...so that shows even more that it's a tossup...no real fave here.

BTS @1.90, locked and loaded, 1 bullet only.

MatI · 02-20-12, 09:47 AM

Chances are, over the long run you should be on the right side of a fix the same amount of times your on the wrong side, but I just stay away. My only advice for turkish games is they are too unpredictable because you never know when the fix is in.

Or we need to hook up with the mob and get ourselves some proper action!

jules11 · 02-20-12, 09:48 AM

I went with the over 2. We'll see what happens.

YOu'd think they'd want to help a few nobodies make some money to eat...I don't mind doing a favour, whackin' and baggin' someone for a lifetime of fix tips

We are obviously hanging with the wrong crowd!

Semper Fidelis · 02-20-12, 10:04 AM

Isn't there someone on this forum from turkey? I thought I remember reading a thread recently about someone being from turkey and/or knowing those leagues pretty well.

catfishbilly · 02-20-12, 10:46 AM

Safest bet is the Over imo Turkish teams have a very weak defense. Last weekend 7 out of 8 games were OVER.

kmarinouofm · 02-20-12, 10:49 AM

we used to have two of the best turkish cappers in the world on this forum.. but we ran them off.. man i miss Kara.. on here.. glad i talk to him everyday...

he says this game goes over

shevshenko7 · 02-20-12, 10:57 AM

Great thread guys. Love some thoughts specific matches instead of "just" picks

How did they get run off of the forum? I believe we all specialize in one sport or league or whatever, and if we all work together we can help each other win money! I'm much better at American sports than soccer. Any chance they'd come back?

good ol' fukkin sbr...measuring dicks instead of capping games...

BigTimeWinner · 02-20-12, 11:01 AM

buyuksehir have a great attacking line and a poor defence so this SHOULD go over. At odds around 2,10 I will be betting on it w/o any hesitation

they started there own info site along with twitter group.. so sbr got crazy on them.. its a shame.. because these two murder turkish football... along with Soccer in general...

probably two of the best poster we ever had period..

2-3 years ago .. the soccer forum here was a joke.. these two guys basically brought it up from nothing.. made the soccer section one of the most profitable if you were following.. and then.. got booted.. lucky i am friends with both... again.. they told me today goes over..

i am lucky enough to still get picks from them... as we talk daily .

jules11 · 02-20-12, 11:58 AM

Would you be able to post their plays daily? Or at least their strongest ones? That would help us out so much!!!
