Aust. Vs Sth Africa - Test Series

[centreman]

Your mail is correct G, but trouble was i took the $2 and $1.80 on sunday when SA looked home. Wasn't smart enough or brave enough to back them friday morning!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I tipping you wouldn't of been either!!!!!!!!!!
Be worst though if you took the $1.22 Aust on friday morning!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[G]

You are correct centreman as I only got on the final day at around your 2nd price but I talked a mate into having something on SA when AUST were 3/ 150 odd @ $6 in the 1st innings.
Too clever to get on myself

To quote the great man MAL - "EVERYTIME YOU WIN, YOU DONT LOSE".

[Wedgie]

Ive got on Australia at $2.44 to win the 2nd test, pretty good value IMHO. Im on for $50.

[G]

I no longer bet on Tests before they start as I'd rather watch a day or so and get a feel of the game.

[Browny25]

Anyone else get on the special sportsbet offered yesterday by Unitab?

ANY player to make a ton on the 1st day of MCG test - 7/1

Maximum bet of $10.

I put 2 bets of $10

Fingers crossed!

2nd Test

[Sheik Yerbouti]

SA out to $7 already. might be a bit of betting on the run value this test.

$9.20 already!
Crikey, you'd think Australia were 1 for 890 not 1 for 89.
Easy for those of us who took the $5 on the Aussies to make a quid out of this game now!

Amazing flucs this game, bloody draw that looked 100/1 this time yesterday now in the red.

[Dutchy]

Id written off my SA bet now I reckon they are still value, a couple of cheap wickets tonight and they will be at evens

Adding one for the 2nd dig, reckon Katich might go cheap -

Ponting to make more than Katich 2nd inn
1.1 Units @ $1.90

[Dutchy]

Ponting gets up!

also will take advantage of SA's good start this morning to hedge a little -

LAY SA to win
1.5 Units @ $2.88

moves my position to -

AUS -1.50 Units
SA +6.12 Units
DRAW -1.50 Units

[Sheik Yerbouti]

Jeez, I thought we were all expert punters here, over on the cricket board every man & his dog have put their house on South Africa, at 10/1 no less. Not one of them backed the Aussies.

Geniuses.

[Dutchy]

LOL maybe the Cricket Room should be renamed the Gambling Room

anyway real bets here declared as they happen!

The rain for Melbourne worries me a bit tomorrow so a bit of insurance, would hate not to get a result from this game -

BACK Draw
0.25 Unit @ $16-

AUS -1.75 Units
SA +5.87 Units
DRAW +2.25 Units

[JK]

I have the South Africans at $6, Draw at $13.

I also backed Ashwell Prince prior to the start of the series, being the leading scorer.

Oh, I also have $10 on Collingwood to win the flag at something like 15/1.

There we go lads, thats all my pending bets, happy?

[Dutchy]

It wasnt a shot at you CP, your one of the few on here I believe...its when someone who has never posted in here starts going on about it on other boards I get suspicious

Would love to get your punting views on cricket in here, gone a bit quiet on the cricket front, we have proven previously when we all put ours heads together the $$$ roll in

[Browny25]

Sorry I meant Sth Africa..

Still think they will win series...

AUS will win in Sydney but SA to win in Perth and Melb

WHY DIDNT I BAK THIS!!!

All good mate, I was just taken aback as I was one of the last punters to have said I'd "got on".

TBH, I usually only give my views on SANFL or AFL, because they're the only ones I back my judgement on, sometimes EPL also but even then I get influenced by my own loyalties, whereas with the SANFL I tend to call it as I see it regardless of my own mob (let's be honest, it's been pretty easy money to back against them in recent years).

Up until recently, the SANFL is about the only comp I've ever made any money on lol, as Im only really a mug punter.

The Betfair graph on Sth Africa trading over the test match, shows how you can trade just like the share market...over $18m traded on this game so far!

Their price has fluctuated with trades from $1.09 to $19.00...
