Apologies for my absence

Well the title says it all. I have been really busy again Thursday and Friday this week and i havnt been able to get online either for a bet or to post on here.

Ok excuses aside let me tell you what i have been betting on first of all on Friday.

With not being able to get online i had to bet via betfair mobile on Friday and it began quite well. While listening to the cricket, particularly Ponting and Hayden hitting the fifties early friday morning i decided to have a look at the odds for just that, players to hit a 50 while they were both in there 40's.

There was money available but it was only a 1.01 shot and with them still having to knock 10 runs it wasnt worth it. Once Ponting moved to 52 i looked again. Low and behold a person not managing his position. The 1.01 was still there. Free money even if it wasnt a lot £1.19 after commision but then again i did the same with Hayden so a profit of £2.38 before 9am.

Good start. School boy error later. During the football i couldnt watch the match so was punting blind but decided the unders would be fine. Backing and laying off 7 pence lower. Not a great profit but £7 while your doing your food shopping i thought was good. Anyway the school boy error bit? The first bet hadnt been matched and i hadnt noticed. Cost me £28.

At the end of friday my balance stood at £604, a bit of a hit in a few days.

Onto Saturday. Nothing to do, couldnt be bothered to go to watch Stoke in Colchester (thank god, they lost 3-0). 2 Matches on Prem plus and the 3 o clock kick offs to play with and all day in i was hoping for a reasonably good return today putting the small loss of the week behind me.

First game up Liverpool V Charlton and it should of been 10-2 to Liverpool but it ended 3-0. Managed to get myself in a mess in the Over 2.5 market after the early goal and was £95 but i waited until half time and lumped on 2 goals or more locking in £134 win and £39 profit on the game.

Out of the 3 o clock games i looked at and fancied Newcastle to beat Watford with the ability to lay it off if needs be with the game going in play. Backed Newcastle to win and when they went 1-0 up laid off and saved my arse from going in the final ten minutes when the game was at 1-1 and others were still locked into the game. £56 profit on this one.

Next was Villa V Bolton a nailed on draw for me which i backed. The game was diabolical, really awful to watch and nobody looked like winning it. Not long into the game i laid off so didnt have to suffer it. Could of and should of waited longer only locking in £8 profit but i didnt have to watch the really rubbish game and i probably would have been tempted to let it run with the game ending 1-0 Bolton.

Over Friday profit £103. Overall bank £707.

Long post this but that will teach me to make them more regularly.
