#5buckcomp

G'day Punters,

So if you're not yet aware, Rik the punter (@Riky81) has organised with Sportingbet the #5buckcomp.  The general rules are:


- Start off with $5 and make ONE wager a day between $2 - $5 (odds must be > $1.25)
- You are allowed ONE reload ($5) on each new calendar day, however, this will incur a $20 penalty to your overall balance.
- Competition runs until the end of July.
- Punter with the greatest balance at 1 August is the winner and receives a free bet from Sportingbet (?)


I will keep you all updated with my picks.


Today is the first day and I've gone ALL-IN with a two-leg multi valued at $5.30.


- Yankees (-1.5) 
- Tsonga to beat Djokovic

Wimbledon Round 1

G'day Punters,

This is my multi for round 1 of Wimbledon which commences tonight: 

(Tennis) 17 units @ $2.19 Wickmayer / Zvonareva 2-0 / Venus 2-0 / Stakhovsky / Monfils / Kuznetsova / Kohlschreiber


This is paying $2.19.  I have 17 units on this one.


I think Bellucci is also great value @ $1.73 against Schuettler.  I will multi this up with a few "sure things" to beef up the dividends a little.


(Tennis) 8 units @ $2.22 Bellucci / Monfils / Stakhovsky / Wickmayer / Venus / Zvonareva 

Friday Night Football

G'day Punters,

How good was Origin 2?!?! I managed to score Row 13 tickets at the 40m line and the atmosphere was GREAT! Looking forward to The Decider.  Time to end this drought!

(NRL) 10 units on Dragons (-3.5) @ $2.41

Saturday Night Football

G'day Punters,


We're well and truly back in the green now!! I feel another big win tonight.  


I'm giving the Cowboys no chance in hell of winning this game without their #7 and captain, JT.  Manly will be just too strong down at Brookevale Oval.


(NRL) 15 units on Manly (-17.5) at $2.06


First tryscorer options ::


- 2.5 units on Michael Oldfield @ $9
- 2 units on David Williams @ $9
- 2 units on Steve Matai @ $13


Total outlay :: 21.5 units

Friday Night Footy (NRL)

Didn't have time to put up my footy tip for tonight's game but I posted it up on Twitter (@thehappypunter) for those who follow me.  The pick was:


(NRL) 15 units on Titans to win @ $1.93


Total outlay :: 15 units

NBA Finals Game 5

G'day Punters,

I don't know how to bet this NBA finals.  Lines are sharp and it's hard to pick the Heat when I wanna back the Mavs...

(NBA) 10 units on Miami 1st Quarter -0.5 @ $1.91

(NBA) 8 units on Miami to win by 1-10 points @ $2.65

Total outlay :: 18 units

WTA & ATP

G'day Punters,


I haven't been able to break out of this see-saw of wins and losses...can't seem to get on a streak...


But I've got a good tennis multi for tonight::


(Tennis) 19 units on Monfils / Tsonga / Hantuchova @ $1.93
