    Beat the Bookie






    Welcome to this week's top tips from hibs.net. Each week a hibs.net member presents their selections for the weekend.




    Last week, mim climbed to the top of the BtB ladder, clambering over Desperate Dan to get there. mim had a nice 10/1 return with his correct score (Birmingham 0 v Wolves 0) so that gained him a £6 profit, assuming a virtual £1 on each of the 5 bets. Well done.


    This week's Tipster trying to grab the top rung is TQM and you can see his selections on the hibs.net Front Page... HERE

    If that one game doesn't end up a draw you're totally effed.

    I'll be sticking my cash on 5-0

    So if WBA and Norwich don't draw, 3 of your bets are goosed?? That's going against one of my key tactics of putting on multiple coupons - don't put the same game on both.

    Doing that is an absolute guarantee that it won't go your way, and both/all your bets are up the spout!!

    I hardly ever pick the same team in various bets.


    Garry must be new to this betting malarky



    School boy error G

    I'm sure he said he'd be taking out Doyle sponsorship if any of those bets come in.

    BroxburnHibee and HappyHibbie are in big time.

    Big time

    Fairly decent looking bets, G.

    I'm normally loathed to bet on footy, but I might have a wee bet on the WBA/Norwich draw.

    I'd have swerved the Newcastle/QPR match.

    I was given minutes to do the bets .. it showed - however Andy's 'support' was a sure sign of failure

    Garry i never supported you bud, Made it evidently clear Norwich would win and burst your bets.


    Norwich did indeed win and your bets were goosed.


    Sorry to be the party pooper, But nae danger was i taking WBA in 3 bets to take care of Norwich.


    Hate to say ' I told you so '

    So how did TQM do?

    Drew a blank but was a bit unlucky inasmuch as the game in which he'd rested most of his hopes ended up 1-2 when he needed a draw. This meant his single, three draws and correct scoreline were bust.

    A couple of goals in the right netting might have seen his treble come in but it was a win and two draws.

    Single = beat

    Treble = 1/3

    Five Fold = 2/5

    Three Draws = 1/3

    Correct score = incorrect.

    So £5 down on the day, assuming a virtual £1 on each bet.


    We're still looking for more BtB volunteers.
