Much in the Million $$ Challenge set out by Punk mid last year - i'm going to try and turn my $100 into something a bit more over the next couple of weeks/ months by doubling up on bets on the $1.90 lines on any sport.

Start bet will be
$100 @ 1.90 on Orlando Magic -2.5 against Memphis

You think i've put thought into this :roll: :roll: - I thought I would have lost by now... :oops: :oops:

I like going for Broke - but will set myself some limits on what I will go to before pulling it out and go from there (It isn't even close to $100k let alone the $1m that Bayman dreams about!!!) = for me it's about betting on anything you can to make some $$$ and Bayman's tip at the Trots was almost the next one - but went with the SA Footy Plunge on Sydney FC!!

Thought that Sydney had the only "real" goal scoring oportunities.... QLD had majority share of possession - but were quite weak in the final third...

It's all good - we start from scratch today and will have it back up and running in a couple of days...

You're spot on - but i'm playing them as single bets also - not just the double up challenge.. so i'm actually nice in front the last week, just need to keep on punting and we will be ok

I didn't get to watch - was playing Cricket, but I logged onto the net from my PDA and saw it - was a pretty scary last quarter though, with only 33 points!!
