Thanks guys and also well done naidoo who also liked Tolo. He was short in NH best i got was 9/2 and topped up with some 33/10 with another bookie i had funds with.

Been a super betting olympics and just wish it wasn’t ending tomorrow, but I’m going to look for a lurker in women’s tonight. That course was brutal and won’t suit a good few high up in the betting.

Mens 800m (Saturday)
Marco Arop Gold medal @ 9/1 & Top 3 @ 0.85/1
Already mentioned Marco Arop, and he ran well in his heat this morning. In his post race interview he mentioned his trying for the record and that is needed to win Gold. Unlike the two betting favs, Arop prefers these races where there are heats, semis and finals. The betting favs, prefer once off racing such as IAAF Diamond league meets. Marco Arop betting odds are wrong and I have already placed these two bets last week (mentioned earlier in the forum), so just adding them here again.

What a race and nice job South, Lokedi gave you a proper run for your money.

Hassan is a phenomenal athlete, to medal in all of the 5000, 10 000 and Marathon is crazy. Well deserved winner.

Yeah a great watch and was hoping she might hang in there but not to be.

Is there anything else left to punt today?

Belgium vs Australia

Australia lost clearly to the USA and because the Americans ran away with it after the first qtr, the Australians rested their players, so that none of them played more than 25 minutes.
Belgium had five players with more than 30 minutes in their OT win, three of them with 38-41 minutes.

I think Australia will win the match and take a lead from the first quarter.

Bet 1: Australia to win @1.64
Bet 2: Australia to win the first quarter @1.74

Got to love a 3-Pointer at the death for a winner, nice Quill!
