Inter ****** up, Brest and PSG looking good. Looks like a 4-2 day.

Nice call Burk, 3-1 with a few minutes left. I played the over, so both winners (you got better odds though!).

[BigBurk]

Yeah nice hits for us both! Finally out of the red numbers!

[BigBurk]

YTD 38-33-5 = +1.38x

[beefcake]

Nice job getting over the Mendoza Line!!

[BigBurk]

Thanks beefcake! US citizen I suppose, using that term? Or just a baseball fanatic?

[BigBurk]

Saturday:

Chelsea (UCL) +½,+1 -118* vs Bayern Munchen (UCL) (1x)

Champions League final tonight! Locked this one in earlier, I am looking for a decent prop also to add to the fun of tonight. More on that later, possibly.

[BigBurk]

No props. Just the spread. Concerns me a bit though that it has moved to +102.

[Vaughany]

Obi Mikkel to get shown a card +150

Champions League final tonight! Locked this one in earlier, I am looking for a decent prop also to add to the fun of tonight. More on that later, possibly.

Chelsea (UCL)/Bayern Munchen (UCL) Over 2½ -111
Both teams score a goal -117

Hope we both win Burk (although I'm kinda pulling for Bayern)! Lotta juicy props, too many to choose from.

[BigBurk]

Yeah, a bit of a prop overload tonight!!!

[BigBurk]

That Chelsea play winner seals a profitable season, with only Evian left tomorrow there is no chance anymore to end in red figures.

On to the Euro 2012!

[BigBurk]

Live bet:

Willem II +110* vs Den Bosch (HOL) (1x)

[BigBurk]

Oh lorddd, right after I put it in Willem II scores the opener! Nice timing, and what a great goal.

[BigBurk]

2-0, 10 minutes left.

[BigBurk]

So, as of right now after the Chelsea and Willem II win;

YTD 40-33-5 = +3.48x

[BigBurk]

Sunday:

Evian TG (FRA-1) pk -104* vs Brest (FRA-1) (1x)

Pending play.

[swordsandtequila]

Evian -½ +129 for a small stake; good luck Burk. Start boning up for Euro '12!

[BigBurk]

Thanks, same to you!

Looking very much forward to the Euro indeed, less than 3 weeks left!

[BigBurk]

Once again it's proven not to bet on teams who have nothing to play for, especially against teams who do, even if they are the weaker side.

[BigBurk]

2011/2012: 40-34-5 = +2.48x (51%)

Hey Burk, getting ready for Euro! Want to drop a little on France to advance (pool play, Lampard out for England), 5Ds lines down at the moment. I enjoy the action, just don't know much about a lot of the teams. Look forward to your posts. Good luck!

[swordsandtequila]

Euro futures (first of many!):

Group A Winner - Russia +155
Group A Straight Forecast - 1st: Russia, 2nd: Poland +465
Group C Dual Forecast - Spain & Italy advance +103
Group D Winner - France +155


Already had:

Group A Dual Forecast - Poland & Russia advance +238
To Reach the Final - Germany +175

Added:

Poland -½ +102

Look forward to your write-ups Burk. You feel confident the Dutch make it out of Group B (along with Germany)?
Hate to take too much chalk, only takes one upset to screw things up. Good luck!

[BigBurk]

I like your bets mate! I think Russia is by far the strongest in group A, so they should be able to win it accordingly. Poland, Czech and Greece are more or less equal, but with the home advantage and the Borussia players Poland has a great chance to clinch the second place behind Russia imo.

Also very much like your France play. I think England will play an embarrassing tourney once again and I really don't see them advancing to the quarter finals. Even Sweden and Ukrain can beat them, with all their injuries and absence of Rooney during the first two matches.

And about the Dutch... I very much hope they will advance, but it won't be an easy task. Germany will probably grab the number one spot and Portugal and the Dutch will have to battle for second. A coin toss... It all depends on the form of the day.

I locked in France pk and Russia -½ earlier, haven't been able to post them. Will do so later.
