Will sign up tonight, is there different odds? So if arsenal were playing wigan, and you betted for a draw, you'd win more than say Arsenal winning.

yeh or if you bet on wigan beating arsenal you would get better odds

but arsenal beating wigan is unlikely

when you do an accumulator there should be the option of 8 folds, 7 folds, 6 folds, 5 folds, 4 folds, trebles and doubles.

instead of just sticking money on 8 folds (for example) stick money on every single one (so your betting on all of 8 folds, 7 folds, 6 folds, 5 folds, 4 folds, trebles and doubles) .

i put 1p on every one which should add up to £2.47

if u dont get it tell me what u dont get ill try help

So you don't have to get all the results to win on a Goliath?

well you do if you want to win the top prize but yeh u dont have to win. so say if you get 6 correct and miss out on two you will still win money

That's cool but I tried to do it on Ladbrokes and they require a minimum of 5p per line meaning that I have to bet like £12.50 each time. :eusa_wall

Looking at the weekends football, I'm tempted to stick this accy on...

Leicester V Hull | Hull 13/8
Scunny V Ipswich | Scunny 13/8
Oldham V Millwall | Millwall 5/2
Rotherham V Bradford | Bradford 11/4
Halifax V Oxford | Oxford 15/8
--------------------------------
£5 returns £1300.07
--------------------------------

It's fairly unlikely, but worth a punt; Hull are in fine form at the minute, Ipswich are average away from home, Oldham's injury list is longer than my penis (that's long :8), Rotherham will be downhearted about entering admin again, and Halifax are awful.

Other than that, I'll probably stick a couple of trebles on...

Villa V Sunderland | Villa 8/15
Chester V Darlo | Darlo 4/5
Aldershot V Altrincham | Aldershot 4/11
---------------------------------
£5 returns £18.82
---------------------------------

Stoke V Blackpool | Stoke 4/6
Stirling V Hamilton | Hamilton 4/7
Cambridge V Weymouth | Cambridge 1/2
---------------------------------
£5 returns £19.64

Aren't exactly big money wins, but likely to happen.

MK Dons is a bit of a risky bet, I stayed away from that one. ;)

£5 on each game all to win.
It just keeps me interested in watching the football today :)

I got an email from betfair that if i put some cash in the casino they would match it so been playing alot of blackjack today :p only £1 a time but put £20 in to start me off and now on £40 and waiting for them to add my free £20 :) I will transfer my £40 back to my sports account and continue using what they give me for free :) (in 72 hours)

My last £1.00 on my account. I've put it on Chelsea vs Arsenal - no goals at a return
of £8.00. I think the two teams will cancel each other out so it could well be a 0-0 draw.
