xHeroOfTheDayx - Road to $20,000

[xHeroOfTheDayx]

Last year, I road CCM to a lotttt of $$$. I used to be an active member on their fan boards. I always thought about flying out for a week, and catching a game.

Nice win there Hero... As far as A-League goes I watch my fair share of it, It can be a bit hard to predict at times though.. I think tonight you can see Central Coast defeat Perth the line is at the right price for the picking I think. I was also thinking about the Adelaide United game on Saturday but after the Asian Cup game I'm not too sure, they might rest a few players.

Vaasa 1-4 Honka +$1,000

Will update everything later!! How bad was that line off...

:beerbang:

Vaasa 0-1 Honka 27' :thumbs:


Great goal by Hermanni Vuorinen! Right back in Tapiola where he belongs!

[xHeroOfTheDayx]

Hey Beyond -

Your from Australia, eh? You watch a lot of A-League?

[xHeroOfTheDayx]

I'm still looking...

I was thinking about making a couple plays in the Belarusian league, but decided against it. I can't afford to take any unnecessary risks at the moment.

[BeyondTheGame]

I'm with you on your Honka play Hero - solid play considering VPS recent form.

Day 3 (9/25/08)
Bankroll: $3,116
Record: 3-2 (Blah)

Good stuff today. Tons of value IMO.


FINLAND: Veikkausliiga

VPS vs. Honka (+125) - $800 to win $1,000 (I'd still be playing this if it was -175. Honka is in a heated race with Inter for 1st place. In my opinion, Honka is twice as better. For the simple fact... they don't lose/tie important games. Other than Helsinki, they are fully capable of shutting any team out with ease. They should have no problem handling a banged us Vaasa, who cannot keep up the pace Honka will bring. Prediction: Vaasa 0-1 Honka

A couple smaller plays to come later.

[xHeroOfTheDayx]

Good for you man... because wow... that ******* Asian Cup game was just plain weird. I usually stay away from them, but wow. I was about 90% positive on a 3-0 day. Oh well... back to the grind.

Kapfenberg 0-2 A. Kärnten - +$600 (Prediction was right on. If they would all go this smooth, eh? haha)

Austria Wien 2-1 Altach - +$450 (After Schoppitsch scored that goal, I for sure figured that Standfest & co. would come back guns blazing like they usually do. Still hit though =) )

G-Osaka 2-0 Al-Karamah - -$714 (Should of never put 3/8 my stake for the day on this game. To count on Al-Karamah scoring a goal away... bad call on my part.

Day: 2-1 +$336
YTD: 3-2
Bankroll: $3,116

Least a + day. Still no doubt in my mind i'll complete the road this time. In the midst of every league. Wonderful selection tomorrow as well. Going to be a good day tomorrow!

ty for the winners bro, I placed my bets late last night and guess I was a bit out of it and didnt realize but I placed 2 bets on the over in austria that hit, instead of one on the afc cup and one in austria so I had a monster day. Dumb luck pays off thanks to your great call on that game.:beerbang:

[flmmkrz]

omg disallowed goal cause his own player ran into the goalie, this ref better not cost us the win

[flmmkrz]

austia over game is sitting at 2 and is the most boring soccer game ive watched in ages. Hopefully one can pop one quick and I can turn this damn things off

[flmmkrz]

GL xhero, im back tailing again :beerbang:

Day 2 (9/24/08)
Bankroll: $2,780
Record: 1-1

AUSTRIA: T-Mobile Bundesliga

Kapfenberg vs. A. Kärnten (+140) - $428 to win $600

I sure do love this game. Kärnten comes in with which could be the best D in the entire Bundesliga. Through 9 games, they have already exceeded expectations. Kapfenberg takes a shot on the chin every time they face a respectable opponant with a top notch LW/CF. Watch for Wolfgang Mair to at least have his name on the score sheet, as well as contributing to 1-2 goals. Prediction: Kapfenberg 0-2 Kärnten

Austria Wien vs. Altach Over 2.5 Goals (-133) - $600 to win $450

Potential bloodbath here. Vienna will NOT lose this game. But i'm simply not going to lay -450. Altach will be fighting with Kapfenberg all season on who will stay in T-Mobile. Altach has already realized they are over-matched in T-Mobile, and basically runs a muck for 90' hoping to snag a goal and play anti-football. (A strategy which has worked for them in the past in Lg. 2) Wein is currently 2 points out of 1st as Rapid holds top honors. There has been talks that Wein no longer has the fire power to keep up with Rapid, and will soon see its long time offensive assault slowly fade away. Not this week. Watch as the goals pile, as an Austrian Wein crowd re-lives it's old glory days, and puts a newly promoted team back in their place. Prediction: Austria Wein 4-1 Altach


ASIAN CUPS: AFC Champions League

Gamba Osaka vs. Al-Karamah Over 2.5 Goals (-142) - $714 to win $500

Alright, everyone knows G-Osaka... but who is Al-Karamah? Their actually a long time team in the SPL (Syrian Premier League). They absolutely destroy competition, as they are the only team even moderatly funded.... but who gives a ****? Bottom line is... Granted, i'v only seen Al-Karamah play 8-9 times out of their 26 games, but their plan is obvious. 4-3-3, and make it a shootout. They know NO other style of play. ****ty draw for them to get G-Osaka... because they are going to ram it right down their throat. If Osaka scores less than 4 here, I would be amazingly suprised. Look for Al-Karamah to get a least ONE of their through passes in deep into the 2H to get a goal for their efforts. Prediction: G-Osaka 4-1 Al-Karamah

Best of luck everyone!! I feel a +++++ day coming!
