TAB - The Premiership Multi Thread...

I know there's a thread for betting etc. but though this thread could swamp that so maybe make an extra one. I'm going to be doing a multi each game week for all 10 games and wondered if anyone else was already doing this, planning on doing this or would like to share tips and their picks each week.

Any rules i.e. stake, legs etc..

Three for me, and two for them.

Not really. Stake and winnings are your own (unless anyone wants a co-op). Suggest that only rule is you pick results of all 10 games (or all game in that game week for weeks where teams have a rest for some reason). If anyone is SUUUUUPER keen, I could try keeping track of everyone's picks and see who the top tipster is for the season.

Started looking through some picks today and the below would win you about $800 from a $1 bet.

  1. AFC Bournemouth v Aston Villa  - Villa
  2. Arsenal v West Ham United - Arsenal
  3. Chelsea v Swansea City - Chelsea
  4. Everton v Watford - Everton
  5. Leicester City v Sunderland - Draw
  6. Manchester United v Tottenham Hotspur - United
  7. Newcastle United v Southampton - S'oton
  8. Norwich City v Crystal Palace - Draw
  9. Stoke City v Liverpool - Liverpool
  10. West Bromwich Albion v Manchester City - City


The tricky ones for me are 1, 4, 5, 6, 8.

Will follow along this thread. Will have a go some weeks but not every week as I don't bet all that much. Usually try to avoid betting on my own team's games too as they never work out when I do!

Go for some happiness insurance and bet against your own team. Either they win, or you win.

I figure the first month of the Prem is a guessing game until the dust starts to settle on the promoted teams and new signings. Then the guesses start to become more educated.

Alright I've had a go this week. Similar to your picks but with a couple more draws. I've committed the cadinal sin I usually swear not to do - bet on my team to win.

Mine was still alive past the first game which is unusual! Looks like it was pretty dire after that though.

The first few weeks are checking out teams form. After that it's all winning thousands, cocaine and strippers for us all.

I'm skeptical.  I'll be happy with 1 collect from the 38 rounds.

Me too. But with the possibility of a big payout off of a $2 bet why not

Saw they were doing a promotion where if you put $20 in your account over the weekend they'd give you a bonus $10. Since my account was down to the last $1 I took this deal yesterday.

I put $100 in my account on Friday.

10 minutes later I got a notification about the +$20 promotion.

I was less than 100% pleased.


Incredible stamina. No shame. Yellow Fever.


Phoenix fans. We have to win them over one fan at a time.

Try Tweeting them...they may add it for you. Worth a shot

I would only have got 3, which is piss poor. Know how you feel.

Here you go. Plenty of room for more people to join and will work on more stats as they come up.

Just correct picks and percentages at the moment. 

Week 1 tipper of the week is...drumroll...me.

Thanks for keeping track of this. Though I only got 2, not 3. And Chelsea-Swansea should be a draw in the actual column.

I've just had the bonus $10 added so check your accounts to see if you got it.

No worries...and errors? What errors? If you want errors, talk to Petr...too soon? 

Cheers for proofing them, should be good now.

I checked it out, it seems to be only if it's your first deposit that you get it.

Fortunately, I won a $10 be from them last week on Twitter for sharing one of their promo Tweets.

The email just said:

Simply deposit $20 or more into your TAB account between Friday 7th August and Sunday 9th August (inclusive), and early next week we'll load a $10 bonus to your account*. Too easy!

The terms and conditions don't say anything about it needing to be your first deposit just that you have to have received the email to qualify. I think it may have been my first deposit though as I opened it with a free $20 through some promotion ahead of the World Cup last year and can't remember if I put any of my own money in before this. Perhaps that's why I got the email.

I'll jump on this bandwagon.  Picks for week 2 (betting sites blocked in the office, so have put the bets on using my phone and typed out the odds on here):

Villa vs Man Utd - Man Utd @1.67

Southampton vs Everton - Southampton @2.00

Sunderland vs Norwich - Draw @3.25

Swansea vs Newcastle - Swansea @1.91

Spurs vs Stoke - Draw @3.60

Watford vs West Brom - Watford @2.40

West Ham vs Leicester - West Ham @2.30

Crystal Palace vs Arsenal - Arsenal @1.67

Man City vs Chelsea - Man City @2.10

Liverpool vs Bournemouth - Liverpool @1.50

£2 @2157.69 = £4,315.39 winnings

All I do is make the stuff I would've liked
Reference things I wanna watch, reference girls I wanna bite
Now I'm firefly like a burning kite
And yousa fake fuck like a fleshlight
