I have noticed that Brent started the year with 12 units left on his Sunbet account and he has spent 5 units on losing causes. I have a BetXChange account on which I have racked up 15 consecutive losing fixed odds bets leaving me with virtually 7 units exactly. My bets have ranged from long odds to the absolute desperation of The Clippers at -3.5 for half a unit ( @ 7/10 ) - A losing bet . We have decided to spend our last 7 units under this thread in a desperate attempt to redeem ourselves. The bets will be placed over the next 2-3 weeks ( minimum 1 unit - max 7 units ) at the books we are trapped with ( ie Sunbet and BetXChange ). My aim is to finally place a winnning bet with BetXChange and absolutely over the Moon would be to add 3 friends to my 7 units. I will leave Brent to post his aspirations.
Anyone is is welcome to join us in our quest with the simple rules.
7 units - min 1unit bet - only @ one book - obviously between 1-7 bets. ( No limit on odds as I will probably go for a 10/1 acca should I come up empty handed after 6 bets )
There are no prizes and the Thread finishes when our last bet pays ( or possibly loses ).
A word of warning though. If there are any Hooray Henry's out there who happen to turn their 7 units into 20 plus in the next couple of weeks - Brent and myself will probably not speak to you for at least a month.
Any commesirations will always be welcome

The old " Hail Mary" right up front
BetXchange don't offer the 10 and 20 golf markets and they had Dufner v Kim at odds on - so no bet. I am going to follow the advice of that punting sage on his blog - Patience the key in 2018 and wait for the weekend.

You are more than welcome - but just a word of warning. Azzman ( 12 off last 2 deliveries )/RB and Stokes have already been burnt so tread carefully

In the ATP Sydney Final, Medvedev vs De Minaur, De Minaur is in great form at the beginning of this season. He is coming off a semifinal showing in Brisbane and he has defeated Fernando Verdasco, Damir Dzumhur, Feliciano Lopez and Benoit Paire so far in Sydney.
He has a huge chance to win this ATP tournament in front of the home crowd.
Bet: De Minaur @1.74

Sometimes I get a feeling on a match which is not backed by anything. These bets are definitely not posted on the boards. Unfortunately in this instance the best odds are at BetXchange which means I either leave it alone/take the lesser odds or make an arse of myself on the boards.
Despite the fact that Rafa says " I think it's important that we don't lose" and Mackem's call of under 1.5 is solid
Newcastle v Swansea
1 Unit on over 2.5 goals in total @ 13/10 ( 1.34 to be exact )
Balance is 5 units
