You may recall from Friday’s post that I posed two questions; one to WinnerOdds Football (to make sure the very heavily staked, very short odds bets won instead of lost – they listened – thank you), and one to The Value Machine (could they please do something about the weather because I wanted something to bet on – to be fair, they obliged too…and I blame myself for this because I forgot to ask, but perhaps one or two of them could win too? Please.)
And today, I need to ask a question of Tom Brownlees of Bookie Bashing. Their golfers are not supposed to lose in play offs. They don’t lose play offs. So what the bloody hell happened with Nicolas Echavarria then, eh? A 70/1 winner would have done me very nicely indeed, thank you. Instead I woke up this morning to find the Colombian had LOST A PLAYOFF. Does he not know the rules? Did he not realise that to let Weekly Golf Values down is just not cricket and is the last thing a true gentleman would do?
Apart from the various value bets from the Bookie Bashing Tools – Bruno Fernandes to commit at least one foul and to be fouled at least once yesterday was ridiculous value and the bet was landed before half time – it’s been a pile of crap, this past week. Everything else is down. The Value Machine the biggest culprit and it’s been a disappointing start to 2025.
I’m not going to go into specifics. Look at the figures and see for yourself.
And as for Bruno Fernandes being fouled at least once…by the end of the match yesterday I could have killed him, never mind fouled him. I hate football!
