Question.... Just looking on 888 sport and on the in play betting on St Johnstone v Celtic there is a bet "2nd Half"... the game is currently 3 nil... does this mean to win the 2nd half? IE: if game finished 3-1 then St Johnstone would be the win in that bet or does it mean at 3-1 Celtic would win the bet

yeah that sounds like it would be betting on who wins the second half...

Help needed, please :)

Just about to place my first bet with PP - do I select Win-Draw-Win under the Market column?

Thanks

Sorted. For any other newbie seeing this, the answer is to click on the name of the Football team in question. It then shows the full boxes for you to select Team A, Draw, Team B for your bet.

Was gonna rattle a few quid on Celtic unlaid (Luckily I never bothered LOL) On a more positive note, Aguerro got me a £5 and Forest got me £20 on GMM and just need Brazil to win tonight (Never bothered laying them)

Aye, with a few small slot wins and all the football money I've made around £400 in the last few days alone

Bank of Bets is now no longer a free service, just logged in and now it wants £15pm/£149pa... It still has the better oddsmatcher and far more offers than PA has. Bit of a shame that, I like BoB but not willing to pay 2 services, so am back to slumming it with PA till January when my sub there runs out

I had signed up but not really used it since I like PA though when my subscription runs out I am thinking of paying for a month or so with Odds Monkey just to see how I get on with it and how it compares to Profit Accumulator. Then I can decide which one I want to pay for for another year. Bank Of Bets might be another one to consider and at least try for a month to see whether it is any good.

Gah!, been a long time since using PA oddsmatcher, I forget how crap it is, anyone recommend a free oddsmatcher on another site? Trying to place my Pokerstars free bets but PA doesn't do Pokerstars!
[member=117]Blackpepper1[/member] BoB is probably worth the sub, I dunno how it matches up against Oddsmonkey, but it has more offers than PA certainly (Though I see PA is catching up with the sign ups that were only on BoB) and the BoB Oddsmatcher is up to date and includes ALL the bookies unlike PA... Where BoB falls down slightly is the support forum. I will maybe try some other 1 month subs myself once my PA finishes.

Oddsmonkey all the way for me,cheaper,updates more regular,has better offers,has better forum,has loads more to offer than pa by a country mile imho.
I don't think pa will be around much longer from all accounts.

Go with oddsmonkey as with the oddsmatcher it has all the bookies include the new ones and it refreshers every minute

Shame about BoB, I second not paying for 2 services. i was with them from the start. I think many users there already had their paying accounts and won't pay for a 2nd. OM is sound. I suppose some will pay but others will consider options. I just hate when something free turns to paid. It's the same as a price increase and nobody likes those.

I have noticed with the PA Oddsmatcher it isn't always up to date and also the odds are usually not the same as on the bookie site.
I refresh but it doesn't help much.
Good to know the Odds Monkey one is better. I will definitely be trying that for a month or so when my PA membership ends then just do the paid year with Odds Monkey if I get on with it ok.
Least there are different options now.

First.... Damn that doughnut in your avatar looks nice! Mmmmmmm

I've never used BOB but the reality is that any website or service costs money to run and needs to recounp that money somehow

the green site has skim links
TMS has affiliate links
Google / Facebook have ads

There might have been another avenue bob could have gone down to get that money back but this is the avenue they chose and that's just the way services run these days :)
