Big Mike’s Wednesday Betting Advice & Betfair Market Pointers

Firstly thanks to Tetley over at my main site for another excellent column yesterday and his insight to the latest from the markets.

Remember its vital to check prices near the off as connections are playing Betfair very cleverly with so many `phantom` gambles. A gamble in the morning for instance is used as a `staircase` for connections to use their Exchange accounts and imply the horse is fancied.

Quite regularly you will find these `gambles` are just the opposite and its a means for those close to the action to lay their horses at very low levels. It does go on and seems to be an increasing problem.

Take care when backing a horse for instance which has doubled from its morning summit laying price.

Big Mike’s Saturday Betting Advice & Each Way Double

Attractive Racing today with some top class stuff. I am opposing Kauto ew with one of my favourite horses plus a small Hughie on another. I think we would have had a big pay out but for the fall of Aikman at Musselburgh but again my `preaching` of low mines came off with stake recovery plus for many on the Forum as this one was laid to 1.11. Its a cheap, easy option so do include it on all your bets – not just mine. Incidentally a sharp reminder last night for gambling yards on the Flat – especially favourites – `JUST` finishing out of the placings in 4th.

Big Mike’s Wednesday Betting Advice & Horse Racing Each Way Double

Busy day today.

The Ashes Urn stays in London & England deservedly go 2-1 up in the Series. Now my full members have a Series bet which is very much alive and I would like members to take cover. OK I`m a boring old **** but if you keep making profits you wont go bust. So on our Correct score 2-2 line I want them to lay back sufficient to go green for £1 on all other possibilities and leave the major profit on 2-2. The ploy still gives you options in the last Test anyway.

Surprises in the Darts and Wade departs. The Pyramid technique again receovering many stakes yesterday over at the paid for service. Whitlock looked quite good though didnt he? Fat Lady (nor Fat Geezer from Stoke) not singing just yet.

Prices shown are Best Odds Guaranteed via b365 – also paddypower.com/vcbet etc – always play this way.

My bets today :-

***DOUBLE DIAMOND ***

2 x £20 win singles (Always do not play the second single if the first horse obliges as we will have enough on via the Double) & £30 ew double (Half equally divided)

For Bill Leopardstown 12:20 15/8
Accordingtojodie Newbury 15:50 11/10

Big Mike’s Sunday Thoughts & Heineken Cup Rugby Bet

Shouted to the wife this morning `All Off` which resulted in a quick slap across the face. All I was referring to was the Racing. Must have been lost in translation I suppose.

Anyway for anybody interested we are still virtually cut off at the Farm but hopeful of clearing enough of the white stuff to venture out tonight. Good luck to McCoy tonight.

Anyone looking for a Banking Return of 14% in a day should do OK with AP finishing in the first three with paddypower.com (1/7 there). Surely pretty safe.

On the winner – Maybe a Reversed forecast on McDowell/McCoy may be worth a little flutter though I agree with `tetley` – Lee Westwood a far bigger `personality` – however a Reversed Forecast for me on the 2 Big Macs. (9/4 & 8/1 with Hills).
