Brestnik 1948 v Levski Sofia

It being the season of goodwill and all that I have changed tack somewhat to see if I can turn £20 into £20,000 by 23rd December. That's 15 days and no small task.

I'm going to need a hell of a lot of luck but the way I look at it he's got no other option so I'll give it a crack.

The first bet is £20 on Over 2.5 goals in this match @ 1.59

Shocking price really for goals but when needs must!

I will try and find some Christmas link now. That will be a toughy as I've exhausted Sofia as had so many bets on teams from there!

Ok  here goes... Brestnik is in the Bulgarian Province of Plovdiv. 
Plovdiv is host of the international BOXING tournament "Strandzha" which takes place since 1949. In 2007 ninety-six boxers from 20 countries participated in the tournament. Some fights take place during the DAY.

So there you have it BOXING DAY

0-1 at half time! Need an early goal in the 2nd half to ease the nerves of Confushush I think!!

Bangladesh v Sri Lanka

After last nights disaster with the Ice hockey I realised that I probably ought to reduce my bank on sports other than tennis really. As such I am going to withdraw back to £100 each day until the tennis season starts.

You know there's not a lot on when all you have to punt on is football between these two countries. Cricket maybe, but football???

Oh well I watched the first half hour or so and Bangladesh had a 1-0 lead I decided that 1.18 was good enough value for a second goal.

As we approached halftime Sri Lanka equalised but the market was settled so quickly while I was making a coffee that I can only show my P & L screen shot.

As for my Christmas list well The national bird of Bangladesh is The Magpie ROBIN

Over 1.5 Goals Wins 
Profit £17.17

At halftime I decided to have another punt on a goal and got 1.41 on over 2.5.

Over 2.5 Goals Wins
Profit: £45.83





Just had another dabble in this match. This time backing the Bangladesh win at 1.22 and out at 1.14.


Profit: £10.91


Total for this match: £73.91

Carolina Hurricanes @ Pittsburgh Penguins

Pittsburgh have a very impressive home record this season and only lost last time out against a good Chicago team in Overtime without their Captain. He is back today and The Hurricanes haven't won on the road this season!!

I thought about taking the Moneyline price of 1.37 on Penguins but instead I've gone for the Regular time odds at 1.64 with a saver lay of the tie so my book looks like this:

Hurricanes: -£253.78
Penguins: +£224.94
Tie: -£473.01

I'm hoping for a nice easy win for Penguins. 2-0 up in first period would be good! :-)

As for my Christmas list well I'm still looking. Why are Penguins only found in the southern hemisphere??? there goes Lapland and the North Pole!! Oh well nobody said it would be easy.

Good luck if you're on and Happy Punting!

Got my Christmas link.

Pittsburgh is named after William Pitt the Elder.
He had a son, William Pitt the Younger.
When William Pitt the Younger became Prime Minister of Great Britain his Government was ridiculed and nicknamed "The MINCE PIE" Administration as many didn't think it would last beyond the Christmas season. However he remained in power for 17 years!

So Mince Pie is done now let's hope Pittsburgh turn this around as they trail 1-0 early in the 1st period!

Hmm 2-0 at end of 1st Period

3-0 early in the 2nd!! Well this is a turn up for the books!!

3-1 C'mon !!! I think it's time for some Hot Chocolate!! ;-)
3-2 I do believe in miracles!!

3-2 it remains at the end of the 3rd! Really need them to continue dominating in the 3rd.
