Hey there folks!
Just wondering if any of the other BRM members is interested / involved in sportsbetting? I bet on football during the seasons, mostly Premier League and sometimes Bundesliga. Since PL and the other leagues are about to start maybe this thread could gather some posts on the subject.
Personally I prefer Expekt and Sportingbet as bookies, they usually have good odds and lots of different betting options.

I usualy make a bet if I am going to watch a match. Because og bonus hunting I have played on about 20 bookies I have only one advice, keep away from Mansion, they sucks! They owe me about 1000$ and say that I have cheated, but I never did!

Posted by B1gfoot: Im intrested in scalp betting, but not sure how keep track or find good bets. any hints? Do you win much?
To be honest I have never heard of scalpbetting! Sorry cant help you out there, but maybe someone else on the forum can...
I lost a bit during the 07/08 football season. The year before that went really well though. Im hoping to make some profits during 08/09 season again, as all other punters
Just like "sponsorplay" I cant really watch a match in case I havent made a bet, my motivation is more or less in the potential money to be won.

Theres nothing better than a saturday afternoon with some footie bets + gillette soccer saturday. i used to use ladbrokes bookies, but now live in the USA so gotta find a decent online bookie. i recently got scammed by ultimate bet, they charged me $110 on deposits i didnt make, so that has put me off online gaming for a while tho. I think man u to win the league + torres to be top scorer is a decent punt, i think u can get like 12-15/1 on it. as an arsenal fan it makes me sick to bet on man u but lets face it, they r too strong at the moment. anyway, good luck to all the football betteres, hope u have a profitable season! for the last 2 seasons when u look at chelsea's scores "most" have finished 1/2-0, so when they play a team outside the top5 that will definately be a good bet.
I bet on sports... Football - Italian league, Premiership, Bundesliga mostly but sometimes Box matches... I bet on Party bets as i play Poker there most of time, it's a pretty good combination when you can play both Poker and betting on one site... I think this treat will have many answers, many people bets on sport events...

Sportingbet is a great way to enjoy any sport I placed a couple of live bets recently on Bundesleageu. Got off with some nice winnings. Lost it all on casino tough haha. I do my live betting of betway. And usually watch the game on bet365. The oddsmakers on betway kind of suck gave 1.85 on the away team to win when they were ahead with 2-1 at half time that is a great odds i think
Ill definetly do it again. But I sometimes trap myself by betting Greyhound races or Horseracing in some Texas City Ive never heard of ou of stylistic reasons
So I blew all the the money I made when I bet 20 Euros Michael Ballack would score the lead in the game Chelsea against Manu and got a 1:17,5 return on investment. That was a great day....
So, reading this makes me want to bet Bundesliga or PL. Normally Im running quite good there. Only have to move a part of my growing Poker BR there. Nice winning at the moment.
