I think it's gone down from something like 11/1 though. NZ are still to post their first innings total too, and at the minute they're already 100-2. Long way to go, and England are still slight favourites.

Bet 365 are really angering me. Settle my bets you buffoons.

Falcao anytime GS is 5/4 on 365 tonight, opposed to 4/6 at places like hills. Might have a little flurry.

Have you ever had a winning run?

You might well be making the right picks, but just going through a bad run.

If this is the case, then welcome to the world of variance.


I know you say football has no value, particularly the PL, but if it wasn't for football betting, I would probably be down overall right now.
I've tried nearly every sport, but football is the only sport I can predict the outcome of the majority of the time.

Pretty much. The market is too efficient for the average punter to find value.
I'm confused by the cricket. Why was the first match a draw when England scored many more runs?

Who does? I'm not saying nobody does, but it's very hard and simply going 'this team is better than that team' won't win you money.

Was it a draw or a tie?A tie occurs when a team isn't bowled out before the end of play, regardless of how many runs have been scored.
