    Yes. Perfect. :beer:

    On Betfair, in the pink box for the lay odds 1.4, you need to check that the amount of money available is at least £50.52 (or in fact £51, as it doesn't show pence).


    :j:j

    OK, I can't see on the Betfair website where the amount of money available is? Is it where it says matched: £1790

    or whatever in the top right corner???
    I've got my own flat :j:j

    Now I have to pay the bills :eek:

    And feed my interiors addiction ;)

    Those are very good odds. Beware: many bookies require you to bet at certain odds or about (e.g. above 1.5 which this wouldn't be).

    Seriously, should we have a separate thread? Feel like the MBing stuff might overwhelm the rest of the thread and most people aren't doing it?

    OK, I've got it except now on that match there is only £39 against that outcome. So I suppose I would be best to sign up to Betfair and Coral's now and then see what is going on tomorrow?

    Re: seperate board, I don't mind it being mixed in but then I am one of the happy betters....

    Sarah is Chief Goddess of SAID so I guess she should rule one way or the other???? :confused::D

    The match has started - it's one that you can bet on at Betfair while it's being played. The odds and amounts of money will fluctuate a lot now.

    Are they both on Quidco?

    Ha, ha!! :rotfl:

    I feel like I've pulled a muscle in my leg. How can I have, when quite frankly, I've done b*gger all? Maybe I've got 'laptop leg'...
    Though no one can go back and make a brand new start, anyone can start from now and make a brand new ending
