(00:01):
You call yourself and me. Youknow you're a lying, low life,
more fucking gambling, degenerate freak.You know that's what you are. Well,
Helloly the General Fox and welcome tothe Degenerate Gambler. It's Thursday,
the sixteenth of May. We're herewith another episode, which is my actual
(00:23):
two hundred episode. So that's mytwo hundred episodes of me talking shit.
Anyway, let's sort of co andsay it's with the last week of the
Premier League. So yeah, solook at you. Bat into last week,
no starts again, not games,and I've actually picked two bets.
(00:45):
I picked a back for Saturday,bat for Sunday, and I'm also going
to be doing the Premier League lastday sort of three bets, first half,
second half on all over making aselection and if not every game,
most games, I'll try to makea selection every year just for a bit
of fun, you know, nothingmajor. I think I might do two
points on this time, so it'llbe you know, two three pound bats
(01:07):
and a four pound bat probably.But anyway, so with me and Bat
last week let down by Newcastle.They did score, but it was realed
out and it was greatly ruled outfor us said, but still annoying.
I know from our Sindy get beatour sending, get beat one of our
our guys and the send they getpicked at picked Newcastle. I know a
few other people had them, soit was a result that kind of fucked
(01:30):
everybody. So yeah, not notgreat Sunday. So something I did go
for something different. I went forlike a four point which is twenty quid
Haines bet. I got four upand got like eighteen pound return and I
ended up putting that holy ateen ona court in France that night and one
(01:52):
seventy three. So you know,it's nice to get a small winner.
But because it being the last weekof the season, I was like,
you know what, fuck it,I'm going to spunk the whole money on
a big, massive bet and sofar it hasn't. It hasn't turned out
well, you know if he gotone selection up and I when he got
two to play, So not great. But what I ended up doing was
(02:15):
a fifty eight pound Haynes bet anda ten pound bet bet building in liverpood
much. I probably should have includedbecause the thing I fancy in the Liverpool
game was both team to score overtoo at four to six, so that
would have been another selection up.But I left Monday out and went from
Tuesday to Friday run all week sixselections. I mean, I've been unlucky,
(02:35):
like said he, you know,didn't score in the first half against
Burts, scored started a second half. You need it. Newcastle last night
I had to draw. It's threeto Newcastle cut out of penalty. Could
have been a draw easy. Theother game that beat was Girona. There
were two to five booth to scoreand they went one all down and they're
the batter team hard up in theleague at home. So you know there
(02:59):
was bottluckler but it is what itis. But the end of the day,
way I looked at that, itwas the bookish money. You know,
I'm going to end this season winning. It's going to be a small
amount, it's only gonna be afew hundred pound, but it's still a
profit. You know, It's notgreat over seasons, fucking that's carible overseason,
but it's better than losing. Soso yeah, that's that's basically last
(03:22):
week. So for the Premier Leaguethis week, I say I'm going to
do three bets about the first half. Bet in the second half, and
a bet that runs the whole thewhole game, so that one the whole
game, want'll be cards, corners, goals, that sort of thing,
so you're always have me sweat.I've already picked the first bet, which
is the first half bet. NowI looked at doing over over point five
(03:46):
hours zero point five goals in thefirst half for all ten games, and
it was four to one, soit's fucking brutal. So I've obviously had
to change that because that's you know, I'm not gonn a three pounds on
that or something though in twelves,you know what I mean. So what
I've actually done is I've done someteams pecking the actual team that will score.
(04:08):
So did Arsenal Newcastle to score,the Chelsea to score in the first
half, and then the other gameshave done some over point five zero point
five that the prices weren't bought.I mean, like Burnley Forest and there's
one to four, you know,there's another one to four in there,
Fulham Luten there's one to seven intheir Spurs three out in the end because
(04:30):
they had already got decent odds fromthe others. So there's a few zero
over zero point five. There's afew teams to score and then there's one
two three over one point five firsthalf goals in the City West tom game
Liverpool Wolves on Palace Villa. Sothem games, the teams do score,
(04:53):
so you know, but I thinkit totally worked out of thirty odd to
one, so it pays one hundredand seven. But look, I'll post
that bat early and someday maybe evenposted Saturday after the football. So that's
the first uh bat for the PremierLeague. I'm gonna pick the others today,
but I knew what I was doingand that one was going to be
(05:14):
at our first you know, firsthalf goals. So yeah, the second
half one, I don't know whati'll do. I think the next one
I'll do is the the selection inevery game, so i'll have I'll have
that one done shortly. But anyway, so we're moving on to two bets
that I've picked. So Saturday it'sa cord and Sunday it's a five ten
(05:35):
are both with a tenor on it. I have one place and the other
one I've actually got Sunday's placed,but I can't get odds on one of
the games for Saturday because the firstleg was only last night. Let me
see you here the double check ifit's been updated. No, no,
(06:02):
so look i'll do that. I'llkeep an eye on that soon. Just
done. I've seen the price onanother brickie, so i'll give that price
that the other brickide is give.So anyway, Saturday's bet is Bolden hold
(06:25):
On one say yeah, Bolden Oxfordboth to score in the playoff final.
It's three to four. And look, I know it's a final and the
finals can't be taped, but thatboth teams do score a lot of goals.
Boton's last five three b three twoone three one draw three each win
(06:45):
to nil, draw too each,Afford, that's so good, draw one
each one one nil, went toone draw one each lost one nil.
But the final and the book Peakshould be going for it realistically, and
if there's an early goal in thatgame, back to the we both to
score. Next is Barn Barn areaway at Hoffenham and they're named at ten.
(07:10):
Look, obviously league's over and themto play for the rest players.
But Baron, we've still got agreat squad m hm h and just I
just think they'll they'll win that game. Next Atalanta away Lee Atlanta are fifth
(07:30):
in the league. They have agame in hand, so if they win
the game in handy they could endup finishing fourth here. But even fifth
is Champions League in Italy for nextseason. I think it goes to the
playoff. That but they also needto keep winning because right up their ours
(07:51):
Rum are only three points behind,so they need to keep winning. Let's
see fixtures, so they three theplay then they playing in the Rubble League
final and either yeah, so theyplay, and then they played to Reno
(08:24):
and Fiorentino the three decent games left. So but anyway, look, they
need to keep winning because they're they'retrying to get the Champions League. And
then lastly is in Vernez Hamilton,and that's the game. I can't get
praised up because they only played lastnight, but both to score, they're
about if they laugh and the evenmoney, the even money. Last night
(08:46):
there was two to one, andI do fancy it. Even before there
was two one last night, Ifancied the games to be both to score
because pretty even teams in totally that'sabout tender one so ten and that's going
to play one time. Next wego to Sunday, move on Sunday,
(09:07):
and I've only picked one Premier Leaguegame here and it wasn't on purpose.
It wasn't that I was trying tostay away from the Premier League games because
you know I'm doing the Premier Leaguelast lost the other season. But it
was just honestly, it wasn't alot that I fancied as far as wins
or you know, both to score. It was it was it was worth
(09:28):
putting it a bat that you know, it was decently praised. But the
one that I have went for isPalace Villa both to score at for the
ay, both teams are scoring andobviously they're one of the teams is in
the early battle is over first halfgoals, but that you know, it
doesn't really affect it. You know, I'm suppose to score in the first
(09:50):
half, graade, it means itmeans my main beats up. But you
know, you know, now notat half time and that beats the thing.
You know, both teams scoring thesecond half could be focus. Both
teams are scoring goals at the middle, then next is enter the latsial both
to score and that is four tofive to currently enter our top and have
(10:13):
won the league. Latzio seventh butin great form actually top of the table
and goals scored in the last fiveEnter scored, Sorry, that's your score
ten con seeded three and interscored elevencon seeded four. So that's my thinking.
Next, Monica heard home the Nunsto win. They are four and
(10:39):
eight and in form and stuff.Monico Sagan and the league leagues over.
Obviously, Nance Away down fourteenth,Monico the in form team twelve points from
fifteen. Nunce Away down in fourteentha game home form for Monicco. Three
wins in a row to draw beforethat, including Drome with PSG. That's
(11:03):
the way records, not bat twodrawers in the last three games and two
wins before that the end of defeat. Lastly, Salzburg versus Last Lask Stranger
of Salzburg sacked the manager and broughtpap Blenders in. I think, as
(11:24):
far as I read that he's themanager for this week, even though the
league's not over, or maybe maybeI could be maybe wrong. I'd have
to check that. But look,Steringratz are tab of the league by two
points. They win, they winthe league, but with Last Salzburg both
(11:48):
score lost are actually above them.The ten points in the last fifteen twelve
goal scored, six conceded, Salzburgfourteen scored, eleven conceded. So when
I looked at this and it wasfour to six, I was like,
I mean, that's that's a greatprice. I mean, obviously last going
for the league or anything. ButI don't think I'll roll over. They
(12:11):
are third, They can't go anyhigher, they can't go any lower.
But you know, I definitely seethat a game being both to score,
so that that pays only et theone. So that's gonna pay ninety I've
got that one place already. Letme just don't check that it pays ninety
(12:37):
two quid. Ninety two quid.So yeah, like that's basically it.
This will be as I said.It was my two hundredth episode. So
look we're chugging alone. We've donewell. This is the fourth season.
(12:58):
I think of four seasons, I'vemade profit three seasons and the other time
only lost three hundred. So look, I'm tulling law. This is the
worst season of profit because I madeonly three hundred or two three hundred.
(13:20):
But last year, you know,usually make over a thousand. Now two
go on I think one year.So look, it is what it is.
Has been a bit of a disappointingseason overall. Still a week to
go, you know, and Iprobably will still do a few bets because
the other league will finished till theweek after the Champions League and FA Cups.
(13:45):
Will be some small bats and thebets in there, just not every
day, and then I'll get mytotal for the season. I take a
few weeks break and then the Euros. I'll be back for the Euros.
So yeah, that just leaves meto say, if you're doing a bad,
good luck and have you pound themhere, get the fuck out of
(14:11):
here. Yeah thanks, let mefind out you fucked up. I'll leave
you wherever I'll find you.
You call yourself and me. Youknow you're a lying, low life,
more fucking gambling, degenerate freak.You know that's what you are. Well,
Helloly the General Fox and welcome tothe Degenerate Gambler. It's Thursday,
the sixteenth of May. We're herewith another episode, which is my actual
(00:23):
two hundred episode. So that's mytwo hundred episodes of me talking shit.
Anyway, let's sort of co andsay it's with the last week of the
Premier League. So yeah, solook at you. Bat into last week,
no starts again, not games,and I've actually picked two bets.
(00:45):
I picked a back for Saturday,bat for Sunday, and I'm also going
to be doing the Premier League lastday sort of three bets, first half,
second half on all over making aselection and if not every game,
most games, I'll try to makea selection every year just for a bit
of fun, you know, nothingmajor. I think I might do two
points on this time, so it'llbe you know, two three pound bats
(01:07):
and a four pound bat probably.But anyway, so with me and Bat
last week let down by Newcastle.They did score, but it was realed
out and it was greatly ruled outfor us said, but still annoying.
I know from our Sindy get beatour sending, get beat one of our
our guys and the send they getpicked at picked Newcastle. I know a
few other people had them, soit was a result that kind of fucked
(01:30):
everybody. So yeah, not notgreat Sunday. So something I did go
for something different. I went forlike a four point which is twenty quid
Haines bet. I got four upand got like eighteen pound return and I
ended up putting that holy ateen ona court in France that night and one
(01:52):
seventy three. So you know,it's nice to get a small winner.
But because it being the last weekof the season, I was like,
you know what, fuck it,I'm going to spunk the whole money on
a big, massive bet and sofar it hasn't. It hasn't turned out
well, you know if he gotone selection up and I when he got
two to play, So not great. But what I ended up doing was
(02:15):
a fifty eight pound Haynes bet anda ten pound bet bet building in liverpood
much. I probably should have includedbecause the thing I fancy in the Liverpool
game was both team to score overtoo at four to six, so that
would have been another selection up.But I left Monday out and went from
Tuesday to Friday run all week sixselections. I mean, I've been unlucky,
(02:35):
like said he, you know,didn't score in the first half against
Burts, scored started a second half. You need it. Newcastle last night
I had to draw. It's threeto Newcastle cut out of penalty. Could
have been a draw easy. Theother game that beat was Girona. There
were two to five booth to scoreand they went one all down and they're
the batter team hard up in theleague at home. So you know there
(02:59):
was bottluckler but it is what itis. But the end of the day,
way I looked at that, itwas the bookish money. You know,
I'm going to end this season winning. It's going to be a small
amount, it's only gonna be afew hundred pound, but it's still a
profit. You know, It's notgreat over seasons, fucking that's carible overseason,
but it's better than losing. Soso yeah, that's that's basically last
(03:22):
week. So for the Premier Leaguethis week, I say I'm going to
do three bets about the first half. Bet in the second half, and
a bet that runs the whole thewhole game, so that one the whole
game, want'll be cards, corners, goals, that sort of thing,
so you're always have me sweat.I've already picked the first bet, which
is the first half bet. NowI looked at doing over over point five
(03:46):
hours zero point five goals in thefirst half for all ten games, and
it was four to one, soit's fucking brutal. So I've obviously had
to change that because that's you know, I'm not gonn a three pounds on
that or something though in twelves,you know what I mean. So what
I've actually done is I've done someteams pecking the actual team that will score.
(04:08):
So did Arsenal Newcastle to score,the Chelsea to score in the first
half, and then the other gameshave done some over point five zero point
five that the prices weren't bought.I mean, like Burnley Forest and there's
one to four, you know,there's another one to four in there,
Fulham Luten there's one to seven intheir Spurs three out in the end because
(04:30):
they had already got decent odds fromthe others. So there's a few zero
over zero point five. There's afew teams to score and then there's one
two three over one point five firsthalf goals in the City West tom game
Liverpool Wolves on Palace Villa. Sothem games, the teams do score,
(04:53):
so you know, but I thinkit totally worked out of thirty odd to
one, so it pays one hundredand seven. But look, I'll post
that bat early and someday maybe evenposted Saturday after the football. So that's
the first uh bat for the PremierLeague. I'm gonna pick the others today,
but I knew what I was doingand that one was going to be
(05:14):
at our first you know, firsthalf goals. So yeah, the second
half one, I don't know whati'll do. I think the next one
I'll do is the the selection inevery game, so i'll have I'll have
that one done shortly. But anyway, so we're moving on to two bets
that I've picked. So Saturday it'sa cord and Sunday it's a five ten
(05:35):
are both with a tenor on it. I have one place and the other
one I've actually got Sunday's placed,but I can't get odds on one of
the games for Saturday because the firstleg was only last night. Let me
see you here the double check ifit's been updated. No, no,
(06:02):
so look i'll do that. I'llkeep an eye on that soon. Just
done. I've seen the price onanother brickie, so i'll give that price
that the other brickide is give.So anyway, Saturday's bet is Bolden hold
(06:25):
On one say yeah, Bolden Oxfordboth to score in the playoff final.
It's three to four. And look, I know it's a final and the
finals can't be taped, but thatboth teams do score a lot of goals.
Boton's last five three b three twoone three one draw three each win
(06:45):
to nil, draw too each,Afford, that's so good, draw one
each one one nil, went toone draw one each lost one nil.
But the final and the book Peakshould be going for it realistically, and
if there's an early goal in thatgame, back to the we both to
score. Next is Barn Barn areaway at Hoffenham and they're named at ten.
(07:10):
Look, obviously league's over and themto play for the rest players.
But Baron, we've still got agreat squad m hm h and just I
just think they'll they'll win that game. Next Atalanta away Lee Atlanta are fifth
(07:30):
in the league. They have agame in hand, so if they win
the game in handy they could endup finishing fourth here. But even fifth
is Champions League in Italy for nextseason. I think it goes to the
playoff. That but they also needto keep winning because right up their ours
(07:51):
Rum are only three points behind,so they need to keep winning. Let's
see fixtures, so they three theplay then they playing in the Rubble League
final and either yeah, so theyplay, and then they played to Reno
(08:24):
and Fiorentino the three decent games left. So but anyway, look, they
need to keep winning because they're they'retrying to get the Champions League. And
then lastly is in Vernez Hamilton,and that's the game. I can't get
praised up because they only played lastnight, but both to score, they're
about if they laugh and the evenmoney, the even money. Last night
(08:46):
there was two to one, andI do fancy it. Even before there
was two one last night, Ifancied the games to be both to score
because pretty even teams in totally that'sabout tender one so ten and that's going
to play one time. Next wego to Sunday, move on Sunday,
(09:07):
and I've only picked one Premier Leaguegame here and it wasn't on purpose.
It wasn't that I was trying tostay away from the Premier League games because
you know I'm doing the Premier Leaguelast lost the other season. But it
was just honestly, it wasn't alot that I fancied as far as wins
or you know, both to score. It was it was it was worth
(09:28):
putting it a bat that you know, it was decently praised. But the
one that I have went for isPalace Villa both to score at for the
ay, both teams are scoring andobviously they're one of the teams is in
the early battle is over first halfgoals, but that you know, it
doesn't really affect it. You know, I'm suppose to score in the first
(09:50):
half, graade, it means itmeans my main beats up. But you
know, you know, now notat half time and that beats the thing.
You know, both teams scoring thesecond half could be focus. Both
teams are scoring goals at the middle, then next is enter the latsial both
to score and that is four tofive to currently enter our top and have
(10:13):
won the league. Latzio seventh butin great form actually top of the table
and goals scored in the last fiveEnter scored, Sorry, that's your score
ten con seeded three and interscored elevencon seeded four. So that's my thinking.
Next, Monica heard home the Nunsto win. They are four and
(10:39):
eight and in form and stuff.Monico Sagan and the league leagues over.
Obviously, Nance Away down fourteenth,Monico the in form team twelve points from
fifteen. Nunce Away down in fourteentha game home form for Monicco. Three
wins in a row to draw beforethat, including Drome with PSG. That's
(11:03):
the way records, not bat twodrawers in the last three games and two
wins before that the end of defeat. Lastly, Salzburg versus Last Lask Stranger
of Salzburg sacked the manager and broughtpap Blenders in. I think, as
(11:24):
far as I read that he's themanager for this week, even though the
league's not over, or maybe maybeI could be maybe wrong. I'd have
to check that. But look,Steringratz are tab of the league by two
points. They win, they winthe league, but with Last Salzburg both
(11:48):
score lost are actually above them.The ten points in the last fifteen twelve
goal scored, six conceded, Salzburgfourteen scored, eleven conceded. So when
I looked at this and it wasfour to six, I was like,
I mean, that's that's a greatprice. I mean, obviously last going
for the league or anything. ButI don't think I'll roll over. They
(12:11):
are third, They can't go anyhigher, they can't go any lower.
But you know, I definitely seethat a game being both to score,
so that that pays only et theone. So that's gonna pay ninety I've
got that one place already. Letme just don't check that it pays ninety
(12:37):
two quid. Ninety two quid.So yeah, like that's basically it.
This will be as I said.It was my two hundredth episode. So
look we're chugging alone. We've donewell. This is the fourth season.
(12:58):
I think of four seasons, I'vemade profit three seasons and the other time
only lost three hundred. So look, I'm tulling law. This is the
worst season of profit because I madeonly three hundred or two three hundred.
(13:20):
But last year, you know,usually make over a thousand. Now two
go on I think one year.So look, it is what it is.
Has been a bit of a disappointingseason overall. Still a week to
go, you know, and Iprobably will still do a few bets because
the other league will finished till theweek after the Champions League and FA Cups.
(13:45):
Will be some small bats and thebets in there, just not every
day, and then I'll get mytotal for the season. I take a
few weeks break and then the Euros. I'll be back for the Euros.
So yeah, that just leaves meto say, if you're doing a bad,
good luck and have you pound themhere, get the fuck out of
(14:11):
here. Yeah thanks, let mefind out you fucked up. I'll leave
you wherever I'll find you.
