Champions League - betting


Barcelona vs Arsenal

here's what i placed my bets on:
1. barcelona to win 3-1, 3-2, 4-2, 4-3, 5-2, 5-3 & 5-4
2. Arsenal to win 2-0, 3-1, 3-2, 4-2, 4-3
3. draw result of 2-2, 3-3 and 4-4
4. Barcelona to lead at the end of first half and draw at full time.
5. Barcelona to lead at the end of first half and Arsenal to win at full time.
6. Arsenal to lead at the end of the first half and Barcelona to win at full time.
7. Arsenal to lead at the end of the first half and draw at full time.

placed a pound or two bet on each prediction and i only had one right - Arsenal to lead at the end of the first half and Barcelona to win at full time.
the odds were 20-1 and because i placed 2 pounds, i won 40 pounds and less the 25 pounds investment, i made 15 pounds.
too bad Barcelona didnt win 3-1, otherwise, i could have won 51 pounds instead. oh well, better to have won something than to lose my investment.
15 pounds, can buy me bout 4 bottles of Magners this friday =)

i can't wait for the World Cup to start! keke

btw, i dont blindly bet on games. i do my research and calculations to minimise loss and maximise potential returns. but this is betting, nothing is certain, so be prepared to lose. i was prepared to lose 25 pounds, and i spread my bets with the 25 pounds just like what i did for the Grand National. i was prepared to loss 10 pounds. for now, it's 2 for 2...
