Request-a-Bets (was 'Sky Bets' thread)

[ryanh97]

Can anyone else not get the request a bets?

[Faugheen_Machine]

Keep checking Ryan, they will reappear this evening.

They went down over the weekend I assume to adjust for any involving Samcro but we're back on yesterday. Dont know the reason they've took them down again today though.

Not a big price but there has to be some value in the Champ and Gypsy Island both to place in any race special at 3/1.
We are as certain as we can be on their targets (in November) but there are always curve balls thrown and as the pair are in the region of 8/1 for the RSA and Mares Novices 3/1 strikes me as a decent bet....

Using Archie's logic (I think) from a season or so ago about a horse being around 6/4 to make it to the festival, let alone win or place, you'd have to think 3/1 is a bit skinny really.

I think his calculation was that horses in the previous Summer are about 50/50 to make the festival.
This is value is based on the current prices and there’ll be plenty of people throwing free bets and real money on the ew double which pays marginally more than 3/1, but of course this is an ‘any race’ special so if connections of GI get giddy and fancy a crack at the Supreme this bet is still a runner...

Sky have got creative:
Altior - any race
Tiger Roll - X Country
Paisley Park - Stayers
Pinatubo - 2000 Guineas
66/1

Not sure this represents huge value but if you’re in the corner that has Altior attempting a third 2 mile championship, where he is likely to be much shorter than the 4/1 ish quotes he is currently getting, then maybe this is one of the more enticing crackheads....

[Quevega]

That would be a good title for this thread.
Skybet's 'crackhead' bets.
Wouldn't say I'm an addict, but like a smoke every now and then.

[Star Of A Gunner]

Having trawled through these earlier, this one sorta stuck out to me without betting on it....I probably will tomorrow. Thanks for reminding me Ista!

[charlie]

Other than the specials and free weekly bets skybet really arent great ante post. Terrible any race market and no cashout option leaves B365 as the far more preferable AP option. Skybet do have the best offer in festival week though, il give them that.

Think yourself lucky 365 are happy taking your business charlie, everyone is only a couple of nice winners away from the proverbial red card....

This is my first proper year using them. 2 of the people I go Cheltenham with every year are banned so I’m enjoying it whilst it lasts

[Kevloaf]

There will be a huge shift on this forum when eventually we're all banned and can't talk about cashout anymore.

I'm still a lucky one but it does take the risk out which in the long run isn't making me a better punter.


I just hope because I'm aware of it, it doesn't count as much
