I did about 10 of these games, but also made the mistake of going for Arsenal amongst them

I'm not a betting man.
However.....if that kind of money is the prize for being able to say barcelona and Madrid will win, then I'll definitely try it in the future. I only do bets with my mates tbh, but not with major corporations

the thing is at least 2 times a year there is a weekend where all favourites win their games, thats why it pays to play small amounts every weekend and hope to be lucky.The only favourites who did not win their games this weekend from all top leagues are

Napoli and Arsenal and maybe Everton

@ Scousers

Its not that easy.You can gamble for 10 years and fail to win even 500 quid.The thing is on accies u must play the smallest amount but consistently and hope for a football weekend like the one that has jut passed

Only joking. However, it's true that these sorts of 'favourite wins' happy around once every year. If you out £1-£2 on most of the favourites each week, then if the worst happens, you only lose around £38-£76 a season.
That's fairly decent considering you could make half a million

Scousers the funny thing is as much as my mate won that much, Book makers raked in 5 months profit on the Arsenal game alone.Thats the thing, there are always upsets here and ther, no matter how great the weekend.

I have a gambling strategy of say, avoind cup games and just play league games.Those are the most reliable but for some reason i stuck Arsenal on all my coupons this weekend.

Not quite. On an accumulator like that he would have played a pound a line, and he played it 3x (covers). This bet would have cost him about £100.

You're not getting 800 grand back on a 3 quid bet!

Who puts £100 on an accumulator?

his last team to play was Benfica, it was 0-0 in injury time and they got a very debatable penalty to win it,
there was a big fight at the end.
