Having worked all day yesterday and then gone to a social at a friend's house I got home rather late so missed all the excitement of Arsenal levering the Premier League door open a chink for the blues!
Fired up the pc and had a look at a Colombian game ... there'd just been a red card for the away team, and u2.5 was trading at 1.1 with a pre match starting price of about 2.4!! The score was 0-0. So I laid £100 at 1.06. By 80 minutes it was still 0-0 ... but by 85 it was 1-1! I backed u2.5 to give a £15 profit there leaving £70 odd on overs. With the clock ticking the 'Suspended' sign came up - 'appy days I thought! But it stayed up ... for ages....then I flicked over to flashscores to see 'match abandoned'.....According to the betfair forum the crowd had erupted after a disputed penalty and the referee was escorted from the pitch under the cover of police riot shields! These Latin games can get a tad bad tempered, but thanks to that mini riot the bloody game was called off in something like the 89th minute and all bets were voided!
The other game that caught my eye was the match between Dallas and LA Galaxy. Starting far too late to stay up for I was able to do a scatter gun with £9 stakes fully covered by a £9 green on both sides of that market with pre-match scalping. The match finished 2-1 to the home team so I opened my betfair account today to find myself over £30 to the good with absolutely no down side. Fantastic.
