Our Double Dutch predictions for this weekend No 3

So here we are with a 100% record for our first two weeks. We’ve taken a very sensible approach so far and it’s paid dividends and that’s exactly what we’re going to be doing this weekend. You’ll probably be aware that the bank balance is now £258.35 which gives us a total stake of £25.84. It’s very satisfying to know that we are officially playing with the bookmakers money now!

The original intention of this feature was to give you bets from allsorts of markets but the current form of our selections in the “To win to nil” and the “both teams to score” market makes me more inclined to stay in this format.

With the exception of the Chelsea game I find it hard to pick a proper shut-out from this weeks games so both of our selections are “Both teams to score”. The first is Man City vs Bolton. Bolton are away and will have a lot to do at Eastlands – I would say too much even in their current form – but they’re going to get a goal at least – I’d say 2-1. The second fixture is Sunderland vs. West Ham which has goals written all over it especially off the back of West Ham dumping Man Utd out of the Carling Cup midweek.

The best odds we can find for this is with Skybet (click here to place it) they’re offering 2.1 and 1.91 respectively which makes a double of 4.01. With our stake of £25.84 that gives bets of £9.85, £10.83 and £5.16 respectively which gives a total potential profit of £62.06.

Once again, if you don’t have a dutching spreadsheet then by all means drop us an email at info@imawinner.co.uk and we’ll send you one through, whilst you’re doing that why not look at the site itself – www.imawinner.co.uk.

We’re tempted to add to our weekly free tips with some other options if anyone’s interested? Our main thoughts are a Lucky 15 weekend bet based around Goalscorers. We think that you’d stand a great chane if you selected Vidic, Torres, Drogba and Nasri for this weekend. The best odds available are through Stan James (Place your bet here). Would a weekly fixture of this be of interest? email us and let us know.

Happy Gambling!

Half Time/Full Time – A betting System…..

Here at I’m a winner we’re constantly looking at different ways of making gambling more profitable or at least more enjoyable.

To this end we’ve worked out an interesting Saturday Premier league bet that could give some handsome returns.

The basic premise is that you choose 4 games from the ten on offer that you believe will be a draw at half time. Statistically over the previous 5 years, 42% of all games are a draw at half time.  This I imagine won’t surprise anyone but the fact that this doesn’t just happen with equal teams may! For example, over the past five years, Chelsea have drawn 29 out of 76 (38%) at half time and Man U 24 out of 76 (32%).

So we’ve decided which games we think will be drawing at half time but the odds on that are pretty poor to be honest – so now we do something a little more interesting……

We back an accumulators across the four games we have chosen utilising all of the possible final results. Basically, we back fourfolds from DH, DA and DD for each game. These choices will usually give you odds of between 4-1 and 20-1. Putting these in an accumulator will give you a return of between 625 to 1 and nearly 195,000 to 1. There are 81 fourways in place so you will need to determine a smaller stake for your bet – just divide whatever you want to pay by 81 and use that as a unit stake.

You could of course back both trebles and fourways to ensure that you’re more likely to get a return.  How’s about 4’s and 3’s in the selection for 5p totalling £9.45.

Of course, you could help yourself by limiting your exposure – if you picked just two options, say the stronger team and the draw at full time you could have a larger individual bet. If you have four games and back both options you only have 16 bets which could pay dividends. To give you an idea, of the 29 HT draws that Chelsea had only one was a draw/away result, ten finished as a draw and eighteen as a home win.

It is worth however looking at their abilities both home and away, Chelsea are consistent enough that of the 27 draws they had away from home they went on to win 14 of them.

For this weekend I can see the following games being a draw at half time and the two betting options being:

Stoke vs West Ham DD and DH

West Brom vs Birmingham DD and DA

Sunderland vs Arsenal DD and DA

Wigan vs Man City. DD and DA

16 bets @

Or

Stoke vs West Ham DH and DD and DA

West Brom vs Birmingham DH and DD and DA

Sunderland vs Arsenal DH and DD and DA

Wigan vs Man City DH and DD and DA

81 bets @

I’m a winner‘s entire point is to try and give as many people as much free advice as possible to help them win more money. However, there are costs involved so we will be selling just a couple of systems on our site to cover the cost of website development, hosting, etc.

The most popular one – which has had some amazing success is based on HT/FT can be found here and is on special until the end of November. The system starts in December so hurry – we’ve used this for many years and we’re that confident we place bets of £90 each week throughout December, January and February. Last year we won over £60,000……
