    I’ve advised Pengy to open a Betfair account, so he can back all three possible results in running :emoticon-0148-yes:

    Never fully understood 'over round' figures in bookmaking?

    The higher the “over round” the bigger profit the bookies are making on a race. They rig the prices so they can’t lose. For example , in Greyhound race the average prices will be as follows

    3/1
    7/2
    5/2
    7/4
    4/1
    3/1

    Realistically, at least two of those dogs, possibly more, have next to no chance of winning, and should be much larger prices. The bookies collaborate to reduce the “SP” to prevent shrewd punters from opposing one dog and backing the rest to make a profit on the race / meeting. If you had £1 on every dog in that field have quoted, you would lose at least £1 on each race. You should, as a punter, be able to bet as close to £0 return on a race as possible. That’s the over round. In short, it’s a rigged market and a con.,

    Will gladly provide updates for the 1st half, but proper football starts at 19.45 <cheers>

    As its live on SKY like all the big games this season, I expect Elf's to be watching.

    Can't afford SKY, I'm off round to Kojak's to watch our game.
    I hope he's cleaned his bedsit up.

    Kindly respect the thread tonight.

    If you must have an online dump, do it over on Charlton Life (where you are ritually ignored anyway).
