Certainly a good year to be Spainish, these boys can do no wrong, even from the penalty spot.

Here is Ezequiel Calvente, who plays for Real Betis, against Italy in the U19 Championships in France scoring one of the best penalties ever.

Watch it the first time and think yeah, so what, but see the replay from behind the goal (30 secs in) and wow….

We are Inter the Money Again Thanks to The Nugget Crew

April 29, 2010 by Darren Hall

It was not just Jose running around with his finger in the air at the end of the second Champions League semi final. As it was another green night for “The Nugget Crew” and their trade of the day.

What we love about these trades is that all the main angles are covered, usually by trading one market off against the other. Not the usual “all eggs in one basket” approach you see elsewhere. Can’t wait to see what they have lined up for the World Cup and we will be working directly with The Nugget Crew combining free bets and trading to give everyone green, green, green screens throughout the tournament, so watch this space for details on that service.

Pre Match Analysis

BARCELONA v INTER MILAN 19.45pm

From a trading persepctive this is an intrigung fixture.
Speculation as to the final result saw Ads & I spending over an hour discussing it.

We`ve come up with the following:

LAY BARCA “TO QUALIFY” @ 2.5
BACK 3-0 @ 12.0
BACK BARCA TO WIN ON PENALTIES @ 44.0……in “Method of victory” market
BACK BARCA TO WIN IN EXTRA TIME @ 22.0……in “Method of victory” market

3-1 (which @ 10.5 in CS is too low to back) is covered by the “method of victory” bets

AUQ can be covered by big green on 3-0

Stats
Inter have conceded 3 goals only once away from home this season

Post Match Roundup

A relatively stress free trade despite the sending off in the first half of Inter`s Motta. 0-0 the HT score we then simply had to guard against 2-0 as AUQ became increasingly unlikely. Prtotect youre bank being the number one mantra here, we steadily layed Inter in the “to qualify” market in order to cover against the threat of 2-0. We spent a fair bit on insurance but came out with £11 profit to TOTD advised stakes

As the chaps say, this was a stress free trade and even though the early sending off shifted the odds against us a little we had all the angles covered to steadily exit the trade for a nice little profit all round
Then crack open another cold one and Mourinho to do his thing (just below in case you missed it).

In working with The Nugget Crew, we have two of the leading professional football traders at our disposal so we all have the opportunity to develop and nurture some very profitable football trading strategies together.

These boys are well known to our members of the bet72 membership site and have provided some invaluable content, free trading strategy guide book, many videos and live webinars over the last few weeks.

They have demonstrated the importance of determining a strategy that fits the criteria of a selected match, is adaptable when the game is “in-play” and has various exit points for closing both a winning and possible losing trade. Correct Score markets, Match Odds and Under/Over 2.5 goal markets are the most popular markets as evidenced by the amount of liquidity available. But they show how trading different markets in the same match can produce dividends. It’s a balancing act that requires knowledge of the movements of odds in markets that are mutually linked to each other. These boys really show what can be done by with a little out of the box thinking.

If you want a little flavour of the Nugget Boys, they have kindly allowed us to show one of their videos from their Nugget Collection below, really does make you think what can be done. And with World Cup year almost upon us, plus live football of some sort on virtually every single day of the week, getting some niche trading strategies in your toolbox could be a very profitable weapon to have, I have been picking up plenty of green screens lately that is for sure.

We’re Not Messi Traders

April 7, 2010 by Darren Hall

More Golden Nuggets last night in the Barca v Arsenal game. The boys pre match analysis and staking ideas proved to be spot on and once again it was green screens all around.

What we love about these trades is that all the main angles are covered, usually by trading one market off against the other. Not the usual “all eggs in one basket” approach you see elsewhere. Can’t wait to see what they have lined up for the World Cup and we will be working directly with The Nugget Crew combining free bets and trading to give everyone green, green, green screens throughout the tournament, so watch this space for details on that service.

For example last night before Arsenal scored we have a green on the under 2.5 goals cancelling out our red on the correct scores we had covered, so no risk whilst the game started to unfold. Then as the goals came our profits started to hit on the correct scores and we could exit the trade in a controlled manner.

Here is a look at their Pre Match Analysis. Adster is a gooner in case you didn’t know!

Feel for the boys tonight really do, am hoping it will be damage limitation and praying for a miracle! No Fabregas, Van Persie, Gallas, Arshy, and concerns over Song and Rosicky. Barca too have both centre backs out for the biggest game of both sides season. Much as love to see the Arse go through it would take a monumental performance and without their captain just can’t see it. Our dangers are 1-2, 3-2 but we have cover via the 3-3, AUQ, 3-1. The unders covers most of our loss on correct score market. Wouldn’t be surprised if we see 4 goals scored by Barca here, hence the big green on AUQ!

Back under 2.5 for £40

Back 2-1, £12
2-2, £6
2-3, £2
3-1, £13
3-0, £13
3-3, £3
AUQ, £33

Good luck all. IF stakes are too high etc just halve or quarter all of the above.

Post Match Round Up….

At 2-1 whilst £40 was lost on unders the decision was made to green up on correct score for £58 and not risk the 3-2 scoreline although believed Barca would score 4 it wasn’t worth risking a big red. £18 profit though, and some made more laying the 3-1 scoreline in last few minutes! If only Messi would sign for the Gunners!

So after 37 mins it was job done, money in the bank, crack open another cold one and enjoy the rest of the Messi show, lovely!

Betfair Stat Attack - March

March 31, 2010 by Darren Hall  
Filed under Bet72 News

Welcome to Stat Attack with our friends over at BETFAIR

Here we give a round up of the pick of the prices traded on the exchange during the past month’s football.

Certainly makes for some interesting reading…….

31st March

Arsenal v Barcelona (2-2)
• Barcelona matched at 1.04 to win (more than £200,000 traded) when holding a 2-0 lead
• Draw backed at 28
• Final score of 2-2 traded at a high of 48
• Over 3.5 goals backed at 12.5
• Latest qualification odds: 1.21 Barca; 5.3 Arsenal

• Final score of 5-0 backed at 32

23rd March

Two Ws came head to head tonight as Wolves travelled to West Ham and it is the former who will have a priceless W for win in the form guide after a remarkable 1-3 win that was matched at odds of [120.0] on Betfair.

West Ham were well-fancied to win this match courtesy of solid home form of late and went off at around the [1.7] mark. Wolves were matched as high as [5.9] to take all three points and never looked back after scoring the opener. In fact, West Ham’s only goal of the match was a last-minute consolation effort which brought great disappointment to those who had backed the 0-3 scoreline at the huge price of [210.0] although it did trade as low as [1.1] meaning in-play traders would have had plenty of chances to “green up”.

The win sees Wolves drift to odds of [8.0] for relegation this year, whilst dragging West Ham right back into it. After looking out of the woods a few weeks ago, the Hammers are now the fourth favourites for the drop at [4.4] with only Portsmouth, Hull and Burnley shorter.

18th March

Fulham v Juve 4-1 (5-4 on aggregate)
• Juventus matched at 1.01 to qualify with £51,544 traded after winning the first leg 3-1
• Fulham backed at 75 in the same market but win the second leg 4-1 to reach the quarter-finals
• The Cottagers have been backed at 560 to win the tournament (£4 traded)

17th March

The history books say no-one has successfully defended their Champions League title but on the evidence of tonight’s performance, only the bravest of layers on Betfair are offering odds of 3.0 that Barcelona won’t be doing just that. Pep Guardiola’s side outclassed Stuttgart in all departments during tonight’s second leg and in hindsight the in-running 1.37 about a home win was a case of “buying money” as Barcelona cruised to a 4-0 win.

The Catalans were only ever matched at a high of 1.34 on the “to qualify” market, when they were trailing the German side 1-0 in the first leg, whilst the “any unquoted” runner in the correct score market drifted to 5.4 before Zlatan Ibrahimovic’s last-minute goal.

No Barcelona rout would be complete without a significant contribution from the genial Lionel Messi and this match was no exception. The Argentinean scored the first and third goals of the match and has gone second-favourite to finish as the competition’s top scorer this year at odds of 3.4. Wayne Rooney’s odds are slightly bigger at 3.6 whilst Cristiano Ronaldo, who won’t be adding to his goal tally this year after Real were knocked out of the competition, is still the favourite at 2.26.

Over in Bordeaux, the French champions also booked their place in the quarter-finals but it was from straightforward. They did take the lead but Olympiacos hit back to level the score at 1-1 and at that stage another goal by the Greeks would have knocked Laurent Blanc’s side out. But it wasn’t to be and a late strike from long-term Arsenal target Marouane Chamakh ensured Bordeaux (matched at a high of 5.6) won the match in the end by 2-1. Bordeaux now trade at odds of 25.0 to win the Champions League, after being backed at odds of 390 earlier on in the competition.

16th March

Another big European night ended in familiar disappointment for Chelsea fans after Inter Milan were matched at odds of 22.0 on Betfair to beat Carlo Ancelotti’s side 1-0 and progress to the quarter-finals of the Champions League. After last year’s controversial exit to Barcelona in the semi-finals and their penalty shoot-out defeat in the final the year before, Chelsea look destined to not winning Europe’s blue-riband competition.

Curiously, for a third time running Chelsea’s failure will coincide with a suspension for Didier Drogba. He was sent off in the final two years ago, was suspended after his post-match antics in the defeat to Barcelona last year and was dismissed once more tonight, this time for an off-the-ball stamp on Inter midfielder Thiago Motta. A sending off in the match was matched at odds of 4.9

Chelsea went into this match as 1.62 favourites to win in 90 minutes whilst the draw traded at odds of 1.77 before Samuel Eto’s 78th minute winner; the Cameroon star was matched as high as 14.0 to open the scoring with Inter backed at 7.2 just before his goal.

Chelsea’s shock exit has predictably shaken up the winner market on Betfair. Chelsea were strongly fancied to go far this year and traded at just 4.5 to win the competition for the first time in their history. Inter Milan on the other hand, who were backed as high as 50.0 to lift the trophy whilst struggling to get out of the group stages are now the third-favourites at 5.7 with only Barcelona (3.4) and Man Utd (4.8) shorter.

Surprising as Chelsea’s exit was, a far bigger upset was taking place in Sevilla. Having secured a 1-1 away draw at CSKA Moscow, it looked a pretty straightforward task for the La Liga side but a 2-1 win for the Russian outfit saw them progress. The away win was matched at 8.2 with the correct 1-2 scoreline backed at 38. The Russians were also matched at a high of 5.8 to qualify. Betfair traders who backed them as high as 1000.0 to win this competition will have plenty of chances to secure a profit with their price now at the 40.0 mark and that may prove to be the best option. Only Olympiacos (260) and Stuttgart (150) who have huge tasks head of them in their second legs tomorrow night are bigger prices to go on and win the competition, which suggests the Betfair market thinks this as far as they’re going this year.

14th March

It was as business as usual for Manchester United at Old Trafford with a regulation 3-0 win that put them top of the table. There were few surprises on the score-sheet either with that man Wayne Rooney adding two more goals to his tally before Dimitar Berbatov added a late third. United drifted to 1.42 on Betfair when going into the break level at half-time and the flurry of second-half goals caught some of the correct score layers off-guard with backers of the final scoreline securing odds as high as 70.0. The United clean sheet was matched at a high of 1.88. The defending champions are now the favourites for the Premier League at 2.6 with Chelsea 2.72 and Arsenal 4.1

Fulham’s Thursday night Europa League opponents Juventus were on the wrong side of one of the greatest comebacks Betfair’s football markets have ever seen. At 3-0 up at home to the modest Siena, Juventus were matched at Betfair’s minimum price of 1.01 with the draw backed at odds of 160 before three goals from the visitors left Juve fans, and indeed their backers, totally stunned. 3-3 draws are few and far between but this weekend Juve’s wasn’t the only one in Serie A. Over in Livorno, Roma’s visit ended with the same scoreline, which was matched at odds of 220.

There may have just been just the two goals in it, but Manchester City’s visit to Sunderland provided an equally thrilling match as Adam Johnson’s last-gasp equaliser for Roberto Mancini’s side secured a share of the spoils. Sunderland scored early on and spent most of the match trying to protect their lead. They looked like they might do just that and traded as low as 1.13 before Johnson’s curled effort from the edge of the box secured the draw backers (at odds as high as 9.0) a big payday.

13th March

Bolton took a huge step towards avoiding the drop by thrashing Liverpool’s recent conquerors Wigan this afternoon. The Trotters were matched at 2.28 to take all three points and at 3.85 to be leading at half-time and winning at full-time. At odds of 15 to go down now, Betfairians expect Owen Coyle’s side to still be playing in the Premier League next season.

Over at Stamford Bridge it wasn’t all plain sailing for Chelsea but they got there in the end. Having conceded an equaliser when Scott Parker scored from long range effort just before half-time Carlo Ancelotti’s men were under some pressure and drifted to odds of 1.55 to win the match. But two second-half goals from Didier Drogba and one from Florent Malouda were enough to allow Chelsea to go favourites for the Premier League once again at 2.48, with Man Utd yet to play Fulham this weekend.

Spurs may be well out of the title race but their 3-1 win over Blackburn has allowed them to remain in real contention for a Top Four finish. At 3.6 they’re the same price as Liverpool but behind Man City who are the 2.5 favourites to clinch the last remaining Champions League spot with Man Utd, Chelsea and Arsenal virtual shoo-ins. The 3-1 scoreline against Blackburn was matched at 42.0.

Wolves came out on top in the six-pointer of a match over at Turf Moor, which has seen them eased out to 2.9 for the drop. The defeat means Burnley are now just 1.28 for the drop themselves, a far cry from the dizzy heights they reached at the start of the season when they were beating the likes of Man Utd and Everton, during which they were matched as big as 3.95 to go down. The Wolves win was matched at a high of 3.8

The comeback kings of the day were Birmingham City who came back from 2-0 down at home to Everton to salvage a draw. The Toffees traded at just 1.09 to take all three points with the draw matched at 14.0 before Birmingham found their feet and scored twice to take a share of the spoils.

9th March

Arsenal sent a chilling message to the remaining Champions League contenders that they mean business after dumping FC Porto out of the competition by winning the second leg 5-0. A hat-trick from Nicklas Bendtner did most of the damage in a game where they were matched at a high of 1.7 on Betfair to win. The Gunners had been matched at a high of 2.2 to qualify when trailing Porto 1-0 in the first leg.

It was a good night for those who had predicted plenty of goals with odds of 10 being matched on both the “any unquoted” scorelines and on five or more goals being scored in the match. Although they are already in the quarter-finals, Arsenal are still the biggest priced of the three English teams to win the Champions League at odds of 10. Despite still having tricky second legs against AC Milan and Inter Milan to negotiate, Manchester United and Chelsea are both trading at 7.0.

If it was goals you wanted, another five were scored in Florence this evening as Fiorentina beat Bayern Munich 3-2, yet still went out on the away goals rule. The Italians were matched at 3.5 to win the match and that was ultimately a winning bet, as was the 3.7 Bayern were matched at to qualify. The big winning punters were those who predicted the 3-2 scoreline though, that was matched at the most attractive odds of 95. Having been matched at a high of 150 to win this competition whilst seriously struggling in the group stages, Louis Van Gaal’s team are now chalked up at 14.5 on Betfair to go all the way.

3rd March

England v Egypt (3-1)

Mohamed Zidan matched at 24 to be first scorer
England backed at a high of 4
Egypt matched at a low of 2.32
Final score of 3-1 backed at 22
England 7 to win the World Cup

France v Spain (0-2)

Spain backed at 2.88
Spain 5.3 favourites to win the World Cup
France 18.5 to win the World Cup

Germany v Argentina (0-1)

Argentina backed at 4 in-running
Argentina 12 to win the World Cup
Germany 15 to win the World Cup

So you are a Premier League footballer with a nice wag on your arm but what do you need next, a flashy motor of course.

And help is at hand as Yianni Charalambous is in the business of providing elite and customised vehicles through the process of ‘wrapping’. Seems like most of the Arsenal boys have already had this treatment to their wheels and even Gordon Ramsey has been wrapped!

See the Players and Their Cars Here

Or if you fancy owning a ready made one courtesy of some of the Pompey players who are now trying to flog it as they think it has jinxed their season!

The Pompey skipper blames it for the club’s run of bad luck and decided to auction it on eBay, with proceeds going to charity. But last night it was still at their training ground after failing to meet its asking price. Pompey bought the 1992 Robin LX two years ago as punishment for the player who put in the least amount of effort in the week. The car is painted like The A-Team’s black-and-red van and comes with a trailer, alloy wheels and a megaphone on the roof.

More Nugget Profits

You will no doubt remember our previous articles concerning of the Nugget Crew Football Trading service.

At bet72.com we are all particularly excited about this latest venture as we genuinely feel this is a great opportunity for everyone to make some good steady profits throughout the year.

And this was true again as we struck instant green on the recent Arsenal v Porto Champions League tie.
Using one of the boys new strategies we backed over 2.5 goals and the 0-0, 1-0, 2-0, 0-1 and 0-2 scorelines pre kick off and went Bendtner struck after just 10 mins we locked in an all green profit, job done.

But also we had constructed a trading position such that even if the first goal took time to come we were still covered. As whilst the odds on the Over 2.5 goals would continue to drift, the odds in the correct score market would be working for us so we always had the safety net of some insurance, often overlooked with a lot of other trading strategies.

UPDATE: Also tucked up a nice green screen on the Man United v AC Milan tie. Advice was to BACK Over 2.5 goals with some 0-0 insurance, in and out in 13 mins thanks to a certain Mr Wayne Rooney!

In working with The Nugget Crew, we have two of the leading professional football traders at our disposal so we all have the opportunity to develop and nurture some very profitable football trading strategies together.

These boys are well known to our members of the bet72 membership site and have provided some invaluable content, free trading strategy guide book, many videos and live webinars over the last few weeks.

They have demonstrated the importance of determining a strategy that fits the criteria of a selected match, is adaptable when the game is “in-play” and has various exit points for closing both a winning and possible losing trade. Correct Score markets, Match Odds and Under/Over 2.5 goal markets are the most popular markets as evidenced by the amount of liquidity available. But they show how trading different markets in the same match can produce dividends. It’s a balancing act that requires knowledge of the movements of odds in markets that are mutually linked to each other. These boys really show what can be done by with a little out of the box thinking.

If you want a little flavour of the Nugget Boys, they have kindly allowed us to show one of their videos from their Nugget Collection below, really does make you think what can be done. And with World Cup year almost upon us, plus live football of some sort on virtually every single day of the week, getting some niche trading strategies in your toolbox could be a very profitable weapon to have, I have been picking up plenty of green screens lately that is for sure.

21st February

Manchester City and Liverpool played out a cagey, goalless draw at Eastlands this afternoon which means no ground was made by either side in the battle for fourth place. Liverpool are now slightly shorter than City at 3.05 to finish in the top four with Mancini’s boys at 3.25. The 0-0 score was correctly predicted at 11.5 on Betfair.

Aston Villa picked up another three points that kept alive their own hopes of still finishing the season in fourth place after being matched at odds of 2.76 on Betfair to beat Burnley. Villa drifted to this price in-running after Steven Fletcher’s early strike for the visitors but their comeback was nothing short of remarkable, scoring five before Burnley hit back with a consolation goal at the death. All of which was good news for those who had backed seven goals or more at the massive price of 60. Villa are now trading at odds of 4.0 for a Champions League spot whilst the defeat means Burnley are just 1.77 for the drop with only Portsmouth at 1.1 shorter.

Earlier in the day another relegation-threatened side also came back from their travels empty-handed when Bolton succumbed to Blackburn. The home team drifted to odds of 2.56 but won pretty comprehensively in the end with the 3-0 scoreline backed at 34.

Neither Birmingham nor Fulham are in any danger of the drop but the former will be kicking themselves after letting a 1-0 lead slip against another Europa League-place rival. A super strike from Damien Duff put Fulham back in the game before an injury-time winner from Bobby Zamora from a free-kick settled matters. As the free-kick was being taken the draw was being backed at 1.2 while Roy Hodgson’s team were matched by some ambitious, and ultimately shrewd backers at odds of 11.5 when the Cottagers were a goal down.

20th February

Everton staged a remarkable comeback against Manchester United this lunchtime which saw the final 3-1 scoreline matched at 140 on Betfair. When most teams go one down against the Premier League champions they normally take nothing from the match but this side of David Moyes’ is more spirited than most and those who backed Everton in the match odds as high as 22.0 will be grateful. United were backed at a low of 1.28 after Dimitar Berbatov, matched at 9.6 on the first goalscorer market, had put Sir Alex Ferguson’s troops ahead.

United are now 3.8 for the Premier League after Chelsea took advantage of their slip-up by going to Molineaux and taking all three points. Carlo Ancelotti’s men made a slow start to the match and could even have gone behind, drifting from starting odds of 1.3 to 1.64 before a Didier Drogba double settled matters. Those two goals have seen his odds to finish the season as the league’s top goalscorer slashed to 2.22 incidentally after 1.8 favourite Wayne Rooney drew a blank.

Over at the Emirates, Arsenal secured a win but it was far from straightforward. Many would have predicted a comfortable win but it needed an injury-time penalty by Cesc Fabregas for Gunners fans to be able to feel the win was in the bag after Niklas Bendtner’s early strike. At 8.6 Arsenal aren’t completely out of the title race but will be relying on plenty of slip-ups from Chelsea and Manchester United.

At Upton Park West Ham secured a healthy 3-0 win over Hull City after being matched at a high of 1.96, with the scoreline matched at 21. West Ham’s relegation fears were eased with these priceless three points as they now trade at 8 but the result predictably had the adverse effect on their opponents. Hull trade as the 1.94 favourites for the drop with only Portsmouth (1.14) and Burnley 91.82) shorter.

16th February

Manchester United took a huge step towards qualifying for the quarter-finals of the Champions League tonight as they beat AC Milan at the San Siro after being matched at odds of 9.0 on Betfair. The inimitable Ronaldinho was backed at 11.5 to open the scoring but that’s as good as it got for the home side with a fortuitous goal from Paul Scholes and a brace from Wayne Rooney turning the tie on its head. Milan were matched at a low of 1.44 when they were in the lead.

Many predicted a cautious affair before kick-off with goals at a premium but some Betfair punters disagreed and put their money where their mouth was, with five goals or more backed at odds of 20.0 and the 2-3 scoreline matched at 65. United are now 1.11 to qualify for the quarters, having briefly touched 2.0 when going behind earlier tonight.

Wayne Rooney’s two goals have seen his odds of finishing as the tournament’s top scorer chopped to 9.0 after being matched as high as 75.0 whilst United’s price to win this year’s Champions League has also unsurprisingly shortened to 6.8, making them joint-third favourites alongside Real Madrid, and behind just Barcelona and Chelsea.

The reason Real are on the drift is as a direct result of their 1-0 defeat at the hands of Lyon in tonight’s other tie. Matched at a low of 2.0, they couldn’t find that priceless away goal. Lyon were matched at a high of 4.9 to win the match but the Betfair market thinks the one goal lead won’t be enough to see them through. From a high of 5.5 to qualify, Lyon are now chalked up at 2.58 with Real fancied to turn the tie around in the second leg, which is why they’re the favourites at odds of 1.62.

Here’s a really great idea to put a stop to falling attendances around the country…..Pay What You Want and Sit Where You Want.

Hats off to Mansfield for coming up with something like this and in an era of take, take take in football, it is great to see someone giving something back to fans.

Here are all the details from The Stags website…….

We are offering the people of Mansfield a one-off opportunity to pay ANY admission price to watch our home match against Gateshead on Saturday 6 February 2010.

The revolutionary decision was made by our four owners as a token of thanks to the people of Mansfield for their support.

People can simply turn up on the day and pay any amount at the turnstile.

Spectators can sit anywhere in the stadium (except in Season Ticket Holders’ seats and the North Stand) as the entire ground will be open for the match.

Season Ticket Holders’ seats will remain reserved and they are advised to bring their season ticket books as usual.

This once-in-a-lifetime offer will also apply to Gateshead supporters.

Chairman Andrew Perry told www.mansfieldtown.net: “This is a gesture to the whole town and outlying districts.

“The Town has supported us since the takeover of the club and we are now giving something back to the community by allowing people to come to the match for a price which they decide.

“Spectators will not have to buy tickets, all they have to do is simply turn up on the turnstile and pay what they like.

“We want to make it as easy as possible for the people of Mansfield to get behind the manager and players in our bid for promotion.Let’s pack the ground for this match and roar the team on to victory.

“Season Ticket holders are also welcome to make a donation if they so wish.

“All monies which have come into this great football club since the start of the season, have gone towards the playing budget.”

We have had a fantastic response to our recent advertising of the Nugget Crew Football Trading service.

At bet72.com we are all particularly excited about this latest venture as we genuinely feel this is a great opportunity for everyone to make some good steady profits throughout the year.

In working with The Nugget Crew, we have two of the leading professional football traders at our disposal so we all have the opportunity to develop and nurture some very profitable football trading strategies together.

These boys are well known to our members of the bet72 membership site and have provided some invaluable content, free trading strategy guide book, many videos and live webinars over the last few weeks.

They have demonstrated the importance of determining a strategy that fits the criteria of a selected match, is adaptable when the game is “in-play” and has various exit points for closing both a winning and possible losing trade. Correct Score markets, Match Odds and Under/Over 2.5 goal markets are the most popular markets as evidenced by the amount of liquidity available. But they show how trading different markets in the same match can produce dividends. It’s a balancing act that requires knowledge of the movements of odds in markets that are mutually linked to each other. These boys really show what can be done by with a little out of the box thinking.

If you want a little flavour of the Nugget Boys, they have kindly allowed us to show one of their videos from their Nugget Collection below, really does make you think what can be done. And with World Cup year almost upon us, plus live football of some sort on virtually every single day of the week, getting some niche trading strategies in your toolbox could be a very profitable weapon to have, I have been picking up plenty of green screens lately that is for sure.
