Tell me about it mate. Imagine I’d cashed out the match odds market without the main bet cashing out only fir Arsenal to score in the 95th minute. That’s a £2k swing and I’d have ended up £255 down lol

So last night…..

My mate insisted we left £500 in my Betfair account for the Champions League games (from his share). He picked out a 6 team acca United, Chelsea, Juventus, Bayern, Villareal and Barcelona at 18-1. We stuck the £500 on it.

Ended up cashing in £5k in the dying moments of the games - it was getting too stressful with 3 of the teams only having a one goal lead especially with United looking so volatile.

If we left it to run it would have been £9k, £4.5k each. Walked away with £2,250 each and left the £500 in to roll onto the next one.

Kind of kicking myself for not having the bottle to see out the last few moments, but one goal would have fucked the lot. Mustn’t be greedy - only 5 minutes previously before Juventus scored we were looking at nothing lol

Unreal mate. £4k up over the last 3 nights. My mate is £13k up lol

Great work. You would have been kicking yourself if you hadn’t cashed out, so did the best thing. Especially when your making a few grand profit anyway.

Yeah it’s one of those, what would kill you the most, walking away with nothing or missing out on another £2k each. Not a bad position to find yourself in to be fair. Lol

Big tip. It’s 2/1 on BF Exchange 2:30 Cheltenham. 5. Third Time Lucki.

    Was about to do the same but the odds dropped to 1.5-1 and thought better of it. He just pissed it - well in Granto!

    Along_the_Wire was mate, but got 6-4 by the time I got involved. £20 on the nose, can’t complain. That’s beers after work paid for

    Cheers fella
