    Very good question. My wins have been so small they've never had a problem paying out. They have been very tardy paying out but its usually on horse racing which is MUCH easier to nobble as it's basically fixed to begin with, like boxing, whereby a horse can be way out of his class for 4 or 5 races and gets dropped down into easier and easier classes until he suddenly hits a class of competition that he can dominate.

    That happens where his jockey deliberately doesn't race him hard so he looks crap, next thing you know he is in a race with donkeys and the jockey gives him the spurs and he cleans the field out.

    One day I was watching Southampton vs Spurs and Newcastle vs Everton. It was actually in 2019.

    Spurs were 1-0 up and Everton were 2-0 up.

    The odds on both of the losing sides drawing got to 2000-1 around the 80 minute mark.

    They both WON, 2-1 and 3-2 respectively.

    But the chances of throwing two games like that at that late late stage is practically impossible. You'd need so many people to be in on it at both ends. You would need 22 guys on board. Can't happen.

    The angle in soccer is the minimal time-differences that allow people to bet on something that happened 4 seconds previously. It's no different to high-frequency gambling where your tech setup allows you a gap to profit on an angle the market hasn't yet cottoned onto.

    Much easier with horses. Horses tend not to tell anyone anything. :Jest:

    I figure any large payout probably raises a flag somewhere. No different than an insurance claim even if on its face there is nothing suspicious. My guess is they would first look into the wagers and timing in case there was something cyber security related to it. In other words if they could subvert the system into making a bet after already knowing the result.

    For non technology side; insider info that Hampton/Spurs/Celtic/Everton thing would probably be impossible to "fix". If somebody put a massive wager at 2000-1 odds at the 80 minute mark some kind of investigation would take place though. If it was a big enough hit they might make an attempt at a settlement or refuse to pay out and tell the winner to sue if they don't like it.

    For sure they hate paying and I think its because they know there is an element of fiddle involved and they don't have to pay where you used somebody elses money to make the bet. It's ironic. They have all the tech in their favour but they can't control time-zones :Jest:

    I've never seen a weekend like it.

    I think, so far, City are the ONLY home-side this weekend to win.

    Everton-Drew 2-2 vs Liverpool
    Spurs-Drew 3-3 vs West Ham :Jest:
    Leicester-Lost 0-1 vs Villa
    Chelsea-Drew 3-3 vs Saints :Jest:
    WBA-Drew 0-0 vs Burnley
    Newcastle-Lost 1-4 vs United

    Leeds vs Wolves- Pending
    City-Won 1-0 vs Arsenal
    Palace-Drew 1-1 vs Brighton
    Sheffield United-Drew 1-1 vs Fulsham


    That's gonna be a maximum of 2 home wins even IF Leeds win.

    Statistically, it would make sense to back Leeds FTW vs Wolves, 20:00h GMT today.

    Bit of both. Milan are top of seria a & our last 4 home performances against remotely decent sides have been astonishingly bad. Like the worst ive seen in 25 years

    Haha, seems our only way to avoid defeat.

    Its a weird one because we were looking so, so good last year. Topped a tough group, bossed games comfortably, beat the side that was topping seria a home n away. Then just....became fucking shite. Literally happened at half time away in copenhagen. Shouldve been winning 5-0 at ht; have been totally outplayed for every minute of every game vs decent opposition since.

    Its a funny ol' game as grievsie said.

    I've got another idea in case that one won't work.

    Early in the match have one of the Celtic players argue with the ref about some call. The rest of the squad then surrounds the official completely blocking his view. While he's occupied Neil Lennon hits Zlatan from behind with a steel chair!

    With Fraser 'The Wall' Forster in goals we mightve scraped a win last night. Instead we saved ourselves 10 quid and we've got a greek junky in goals. Its nearly november and ive not seen that lad make one save. Ya joonkiest joonkiest austerity goalkeeper, yee.

    Rangers continue racking up the european wins & clean sheets. This is legit one of the best goals ever scored. Cunts.

    In Dutch Tweede Divisie today's matches have been postponed. So if you were looking forward to IJsselmeervogels vs Spakenburg or Koninklijke HFC vs ASWH you'll sadly have to wait.

    Liverpool losing again. It's quite the fucking year for messed up results. Fabinho judged to have brought his man down inside the penalty. FFS. If they can't make their mind up what side of the line a chap is, forget it.

    The way people sit there agog, waiting for the phony canned applause and hollering after some clown and his/her partner manage to skate across the fucking floor to some preposterous "Latinized" tune or some horrific version of "Always look on the bright side".

    Country is fucked. Here, come get your fix of Circus. Bread is extra, though.
