Hi.

I'm thinking of doing an accumulator each day and as I'm not a regular betting man I though it would be good to get peoples thoughts each day about the matches, where the value is and what accumulators people are looking at.


Jamie Caven (5/4)
Kevin Painter (3/4)

Jamie Lewis (4/6)
Mick McGowan (7/5)

Gary Anderson (1/14)
Mark Frost (12/1)

Michael Smith (4/9)
Ricky Evans (9/4)

I'm looking at a straight accumulator for tonight and looking at Anderson, Smith and Caven being the value (Painter not on form). But what do people think about Lewis vs McGowan....??

I wouldnt even bother with the Anderson leg unless you bet on him with a handicap. Coral have him as low as 1/20 just for the match. 1/2 to win in straight sets, though.

I don't like anything there to be honest.

Well yes, Smith has been crap recently but so has Evans hasnt he? Lewis/McGowan is a 50-50 game for me, as is the first one.

Agreed so the value is with Caven and Mcgowan in these games. If you factor in Caven's TV issues that game becomes a minefield.

The acca I did for the first round is:

Price
Petersen
VDV
Huybrechts
And one more, can't remember off hand - think it might be King

[Ginge]

Just had an email through from Skybet - for those wanting to bet on MvG there are odds of 5/1 available

































...as long as you think the losing finalist is Anderson.

You're massively misunderstanding the term 'value'.

He's an accountant, that's what they do

A Lewis
D Chisnall
J Klassen
A Norris
M Suljovic

Not great odds by any stretch but hopefully enough to get my a big lumper on an MVG/Durrant double.

Quite like the look of this. Bit wary about Anderson as frost has been playing superbly on the floor. But still looks a decent bet

[Ecky Thump]

Darren Webster is over priced on recent form against Bunting as is Wilson against Huybrechts.

I have gone for something similar. BUT, with Caven winning !!! (Gulp!)

(a small bet though)

Probably the dodgiest selection, can't have Anderson at 1/20 though.

Huybrechts will batter Wilson

[Ginge]

Every match to go at least 4 sets except the Ando one (winning in 3) is 2.6/1 if anyone likes the look of that (Skybet)
