Re: Darts Betting Thread
A West/Ratajski/Dekker treble is 11/1.
Re: Darts Betting Thread
MVG is 1/3 to beat Kist 3-0. Doubling it up with Wright to beat Portela 3-0 gets you just over even money.Ginge wrote:Would be amazed if its any better than 1/5, isnt he 1/100 just to win?Murphio wrote:Some of the odds on hills for what should be tricky games for the favourites are a joke - Hendo 1/4, Whitlock 2/7, Norris 2/9. The best value I can see first round is Steve West at 13/10 and van den Berg at 6/5. Ratajski is tempting to beat Wilson at 4/5. Think van Gerwen to win it at 4/5 is the bet, I am maybe going to have a lump on it. Wonder what price they will put on an MVG 3-0 over Kist.
Re: Darts Betting Thread
Agreed. Especially if MVG has the throw first set, you have a great chance of 3-0 since Kist would have to break in two sets.Ginge wrote:1/3 is generous, IMO.
Re: Darts Betting Thread
Did Van Gerwen, Suljovic and Wright all to win 3-0 at 11/2
Re: Darts Betting Thread
I wouldn't expect Kevin to lose 3-0 - not in set play. Too seasoned a campaigner imo. I'd play cautious on that treble and go for a Mensur win. 10 quid pays 25 back.BOOM wrote:Did Van Gerwen, Suljovic and Wright all to win 3-0 at 11/2

Anyone now the crack with new Sky Bet accounts - seems to be a limit on what I can stake (or more precisely, win). Maximum profit for a bet appears to be £500 - do I need to verify my account or something?
Re: Darts Betting Thread
For any bet or just for something on darts?

Re: Darts Betting Thread
Maximum bet on MVG at 4/5 was £625 - making the potential profit £500. Maximum bet on Anderson at 7/1 was about £73 - making the potential profit just over £500. I could however have a tenner on, for example, Devon Peterson at £1000/1. Just spoke to a guy on the phone - that is all they are taking from every customer on those two particular bets to limit their liability. Really crap if you ask me.BOOM wrote:For any bet or just for something on darts?

They will ask for you to verify your identity, only if they cannot verify it themselves.
Had some accounts suspended whilst checks were done, most accounts I have no issue with.
If you have deposited money for a bet and it is not a free bet or similar, there should be no £500 limit on it.

Re: Darts Betting Thread
As above - it seems to be a restriction placed on both Anderson and MVG to win the worlds. I can have money on the outsiders with no restriction.BlueSpark wrote:Unusual.Murphio wrote:Anyone now the crack with new Sky Bet accounts - seems to be a limit on what I can stake (or more precisely, win).

Nothing stopping you going round the High Street using the machines to put extra on.

Price manipulation normally the main thing they do, stake limiting not so often. But still common enough.
They try and weight everything in their favour, so whatever the result they will not lose out.
Re: Darts Betting Thread
Only opened an account because they were offering 4/5 on MVG and Hills closed him to 8/11. Still, I did get a couple of free tenner bets out of it. Stuck a tenner on James Wilson to beat Ratajski and the other a quad of Ratajski/Lim/Jamie Lewis and Jan Dekker. Probably won't use the account again.BlueSpark wrote:They do it all the time on markets.Murphio wrote:As above - it seems to be a restriction placed on both Anderson and MVG to win the worlds.

Play the game.
I tend to play online slots a lot.
Signed up to 888.com over two years ago.
They gave you £88 free play on slots, but you could only play 2 games and winnings were capped at £15.
Needless to say I got a balance of £15, this could now be played on any slots game. Can't remember the wagering requirement now, but it was a lot. Basically, I had to stake at least £1500 or £2000 or something, before I could withdraw my winnings.
Ended up withdrawing £650 after a furious day playing the site. 3 days later had to verify my identity. Bear in mind, I didn't actually deposit any money into the site whatsoever. They had to pay me by bank transfer as I hadn't registered or used a card
I couldn't believe it.

Only two bets for me will be Wilson at evens to beat Ratajski and Bruguier to beat Cody Harris at 7/4.

Don't know a whole lot about either Brugier or Harris - what's your thoughts on that bet?ssjsa wrote:Only two bets for me will be Wilson at evens to beat Ratajski and Bruguier to beat Cody Harris at 7/4.
