THE BETTING THREAD

[John Smith]

Good luck - will keep an eye on others - id imagine Reading are very high odds for something similar - but its got to happen right? Be worth a £1?

I suppose it's worth £1 given our record up there. Sold.

What's the bet here lads? X team to score both halves and take 3+ corners each half, oppo to have 1+ card each half?

[Pepe the Horseman]

I've gone btts both halves in the two games tonight. Double is 320/1.

yeah - i think going with cards damages the bet somewhat - 1st half cars are rare...

will have a look later and post up

You are right about first half cards-if betting in that market only it is often best to wait until half-time when the quote will usually be significantly lower.
BTW when it comes to Reading we are one of the cleanest sides in The Championship.

[Hendo]

Wasn't the red card on Saturday the first one under Pauno? Pretty good going to get through nearly 2 years without one.

[Pepe the Horseman]

Drinkwater sent off 100/1

Well done Paul.
Just out of interest, since the start of the year there have been 3 goals or more in 10/12 of our games.
Bookies usually quote just under evens for over 2.5 goals seemingly for whoever is playing.

We used to be a good bet in the corners over market but not so much this season.

[Pepe the Horseman]

Reading to beat B'ham and Ince to score is 10/1.

Reading 1-0, Ince to score is 55/1. But Ince first scorer and last scorer is 70/1. Surely same thing?

[Pepe the Horseman]

Drinkwater 13/2 for a yella tonight.

[South Coast Royal]

Reading to beat B'ham and Ince to score is 10/1.

Reading 1-0, Ince to score is 55/1. But Ince first scorer and last scorer is 70/1. Surely same thing?

No, we could win say 2-1 with Ince scoring the first goal, Birmingham equalising and then Ince scoring again.

Good luck with your Drinkwater bet which must surely happen some time with a missed tackle.
I will probably stick with goals over 2.5 (they concede a few) plus Holmes and/or Morrison to score anytime.

Yeh sorry, I mean if it finishes 1-0 it's the same thing, just much better odds (unless he has to score two, but it definitely isn't clear). And also gives you an extra chance in the scenario you explained.

[Silver Fox]

I was sure the 1-0 scoreline was implicit in your post

I'm sure it wasn't, thus the reply.

[Pepe the Horseman]

Just to clarify for everyone's benefit...
I was going to do Reading to win 1-0, Ince to score at 55/1.
Then I looked at Ince to score first and Ince to score last, which came out at 70/1, even though this would also be the case if he scored and we won 1-0. Basically the question was would he need to score twice? I think it's a loophole, but I'm sure B365 will have something to say about it if it comes in.

[Silver Fox]

Oddly enough I looked on B365 and if you do it on a bet builder first goalscorer is 60/1, last goalscorer (the same thing) is 55/1, anytime goalscorer (again the same thing) is 60/1, combining first and last takes your 60/1 down to 55/1
