Even if I wanted to, I couldn't - I can only back events that will be resolved in my week!
I wanted to back Luke to win Big Brother 9 . .  |

He's not a stirrer; he's dead funny!! He was a little geeky brat when he went in and now he does his hair and dresses really nicely, bless him!
He reminds me of Luke Turnbull; a little rugrat with a really squeaky annoying voice, but there's something about him that makes me giggle!!
They have something else in common too . . .
. . . neither of them can go into Rileys for a game of pool right now.

Right . . . After having a quick look at the sport for my particular week and learning that there is actually sweet FA happening in which I have the slightest interest, the first weeks money is going on the following players at the 137th Open Golf Championship at Birkdale, starting Thursday 17th:
£5 e/w: Sergio Garcia @ 9/1*
£5 e/w: Ernie Els @ 9/1*
£5 e/w: Phil Mickleson @ 16/1*
£5 e/w: Vijay Singh @ 25/1*
1/4 Odds Place 1,2,3,4,5
(* = Current odds offered by William Hill, although prices may change by tomorrow when I put the bets on . . . )
I'm sorry - I'm afraid I may have spunked our first weeks cash, but I pick horses by name so don't think that's the best option with other peoples cash! Roll on the footy season, that's all I can say . . .

Jamie, I spoke to Dany about this. Is there any way of opening up some sort of consortium account, when more than ones card details are held???

unfortunately not - 1 person could open and deposit on behalf of the rest and place or you could all individiually open and each get a nice free bet. We are quite strict on cards; especially those in others names for obvious reasons. Happy to facilitiate where i can...let me know how you want to proceed. |

if garcia or els get placed your only gonna get your money back as it's 1/4 odd @9/1 and you've made 4 e/w bets... seems like a nonse bet to me
as for bluesq... i've tried many o' times to place bets with their mobile service and it always bombs out on me... useless if you ask me! |

No i didnt ask, however i think i have the reason. Perhaps its the humidity which was making the keypad slow and the buttons stick...just a thought! |

Thanks for your input.
As far as i'm concerned, if I manage to put £40 into our kitty for week one, then i'll be happy. I'm quite obviously going to put my weeks money on something I think will give us some form of return. If I didn't, it'd be a bit daft and going against the point of the syndicate.
What if Garcia AND Els get placed? And Mickleson? And Singh?
That's what i've picked. Luckily you're not in the syndicate so I can tell you to do one.  |

can't believe you've never heard of www.oddschecker.com!!!
generally betfair will get you the best outright prices and it also enables you to 'lay' bets... i.e. bet someone will lose
bluesq will probably get you the worst prices but like most firms will offer a bigger variety than betfair
i'm pretty sure all bookies offer introductory offers, just look in the daily rags especially the racing post |
