Your favourite fun bets..

We've all had them. When we place a bet that is totally out of our character or not in our betting system or philosophy. What are your fun bets? Mine are following tips from telly or on this forum when I really shouldn't sometimes. I also sometimes like to take a bet against a team I support, so if they win I feel happy cos my team won, and if they loose I feel richer. A win win situation

On Saturday night in the box... shouting for Stormers but forecsting the score Stormers 12 Crusaders 19... and winning two good bottles of wine... as you say LD... win win

NEVER back against my own team but 95% of games I'll back Man Utd to win 5-0 irrespective of opposition or venue

My correct score miniscules are for fun really... I just think they give me a better chance of a lottery win than the lottery itself -

My favorite fun bet is taking an ATC on Long Term Sports Bets, the one I have done this year is, for 31500/100:
Vettel (F1 Champ) (13/10)
Chiefs (Super Rugby) (9/2)
Bayern (Champ League) (4/1)
Chennai (IPL) (4/1)

No jokes, after you told me to try the ''score prediction bets'' i made R3000 on a Yankee for R55 outlay, and i agree with you Englander better chance than the lottery..

EXCELLENT! I think its a good bet mate, if you keep to the principles. Would lose heavily if attempting it all matches but if you can identify the ones with potential its worth a go, its fun, keeps an interest going, cheap (or not depending on how you want to play it), but sh1t it can be annoying as fark.... eg Swansea Bradford when I would have won 500 pounds upwards on 6 or 7 to 0/1, 30 mins to go 4-0, against 10 men and they start playing keep ball!! :X lol

I meant to add, I think RM-Galat has potential tonight...

I stopped punting. My only fun bets now are Hollybucks.

my fun bets are taking wins on an opisition country in cricket dont get me wrong i am a true suppoter(tu)
e.g if the proteas win the first t20 then i will back the oppsing team to win and when the opposing team wins i will back the proteas to win (cheeck the consistency with the pakistan odis works for me)

(never do this for test matches sa tooooo stroong go straight wins on sa)

also

when a cricket match goes to the last over i bet my arm off

Chennai losing in the Final cost me a nice ATC. Vettel looks like he should win the Formula 1.
