See my mate in the bookies (Ladbrokes) at 5:55 wanting to put 1k on Marseille to win tonight. They rejected it and said £100 max only!

Why? Anyway me and my mate put an extra £100 on each for him so he got £300 on them in the end. Think he was off to Coral up the road to bet some more

There currently 1-0 up, I added them to my trebles but wish I'd gone big too at the mo!

Winning in the bookies is like winning on fruit machines. After a while they don't want your business. Phone betting is even worse. Every bet gets referred and then you get knocked back. A few years ago chanel four did a documentary on betting. They went into a bookies in the morning to have a grand on a horse at 20/1. the bet was taken at SP only. The film crew went to the racecourse where the bookies on course rep bet the horse down to 8/1 with only a few hundred quid of cash. The horse was average and ran unplaced.

WOW! What a strange night for scores. Did 3 different lines £20 each, 4 teams on 2, 3 on the other.

Lazio and Rangers let me down on 1 line both drawing 1-1.

Man U, Bordeaux and Barca were all behind at one point but all managed to turn it round add Marseille to them and thats one winning line :P

3rd Line - Marseille, Falkirk (for value 11/5) and waiting on Leeds tomorrow!

Happy days, but looked like I was going to get screwed badly at one point!
