Ladbrokes – Horse Racing Update

  • April 30th, 2009

Horse racing, they say, is one of the oldest sports and one of the world’s favourites. First let me tell you a little about its history.

Horse racing is a gambling sports that has been around since ancient times but it was only later in 12th century when it became a professional sport when King Henry II of England started breeding Arabian stallions with English mares. This is the breed extensively used in horse racing today.

As racing became more and more popular through the years, the breeding of racehorses also underwent some changes. More Arabian stallions were imported to the country and bred with English mares producing powerful and spirited horses with amazing speed.

Gambling expanded in an alarming rate when technological innovations that were developed in the 19th century led horse racing into becoming the most popular sport in the country with millions of people watching and now with the boom of online betting and bookmaking sites such as Ladbrokes, Paddy Power and Gala Coral, people found an even easier way to place their bets and right from the comforts of their homes. They won’t have to drive to betting shops and waste gas or sit in traffics.

This became one of the issues most talked about today, gambling sports such as horse racing, greyhound racing and darts could be doing more harm than good to the society as they seem to be encouraging more and more people to turn into gambling especially with the credit crunch biting hard.

Ladbrokes – No matter the Sport or Political event or even reality television show that you are interested in their will be a bet available on it at Ladbrokes.

Although you can say that sometime the price offered at Ladbrokes is not the best which normally it isn’t you can be rest assured you will not have to look for long before finding what you are after due to their brilliant user friendly website that is very straight forward unlike many of their competitors of today.

Dependant on the level of money you like to stake on your bets is how high I would recommend Ladbrokes to new customers, meaning if you are a punter that likes to stake low and look for maximum payout then I would say categorically stay away from Ladbrokes because you will not get rich quick on this site, but if you like to stake big then I would say get signed up quick because Ladbrokes allow some mega bets which others seem to be scared of.

Ladbrokes now operates over 2,200 betting shops in the UK and Belgium, there website has lots of deposit and payout options including new ones including PayPal, Enets and Western money transfer to name a few.

Poker players need not look elsewhere than Ladbrokes also with a 25% cash bonus on your first deposit, and up to $100 free just for playing regularly in Ladbrokes poker rooms, Ladbrokes Casino also has many new bonus player incentives as well but far too many to mention so pop in and have a look.

Ladbrokes Review

  • April 29th, 2009

Cricket is an international sport played extensively in England and in other countries such as Australia, Pakistan, India, Zimbabwe, New Zealand and South Africa where the sport is quite popular.

To place a bet on ladbrokes.co.uk click here!

 

Some said that cricket originated from a game devised by children living in small farming and metal-working communities in the Saxon or Norman times and was passed on from generation to generation before it was taken up by adults. Definite references have surfaced proving that the game has been around and has been played for hundreds of years and now as a sport played worldwide and enjoyed by many.

In England, they have county championships for the sport, with both four-day and one-day competitions held all at the same time during the summer months. The Cricket World Cup, on the other hand, is conducted every four years and is a one-day competition, organized by the sport’s governing body, the International Cricket Council. Australia has bagged the award these recent years, having won the Cricket World Cup in 1999, 2003 and 2007.

The 2011 Cricket World cup will be the tenth Cricket World Cup and will be hosted in the four Asian Test cricket playing countries – Sri Lanka, India, Pakistan and Bangladesh from the months of February to March 2011.

The attack on the Sri Lankan cricket team last March 03, 2009 though, where six members of the Sri Lankan cricket team were injured and where six Pakistani and two civilians were killed, could result to some changes in the schedule.

Bet365.com – International round up

  • April 29th, 2009

This week was World Cup qualification week and for our home countries it was a week of both joy and disappointment for our home nations in one way or another.

To place a bet on bet365.com click here!

 

England only played 1 qualifying game this week but that was enough for them to take a 5 point lead at the top of their group after a hard fought 2-1 victory over Ukraine at a packed Wembley.

Crouch who celebrated his recall to the national side replacing Heskey and Darren Bent who both pulled out through injury after the weekend friendly 4-0 demolition of Slovakia with the opening goal of the game against Ukraine and celebrated his strike with his world famous robot dance which gets the atmosphere rising throughout the stands at Wembley then Shevchenko looked like grabbing a point for the visitors until Captain John Terry’s late header grabbed all the points for the three lions and now they look like barring a disaster easy qualifiers for South Africa.

Scotland had mixed fortunes in their two games, first losing heavily 3-0 away in Holland before restoring national pride in their 2-1 home victory over Iceland to leave them 2nd in their group.

Both the Republic and Northern Ireland look good in their groups with the Republic drawing both their games with Bulgaria and Italy which leaves them in a strong position in 2nd place and little Northern Ireland had two fantastic victories over Poland (3-2) and then Slovenia (1-0) leaving them top and dreaming of the finals.

Wales had a week they would most like to forget, first going down 2-0 at home to Finland they followed that up with a 2-0 loss at home to Germany leaving them with no earthly chance of qualification and their fans booing them off the pitch.

Williamhill – Casino games review

  • April 28th, 2009

Williamhill Casino and Poker game websites were something that I did not know anything about twelve months ago but now after starting slowly I now have come to realise that after a bit of time the games at the Casino section will start to get a bit easier to understand and now I actually enjoy playing them with roulette being my favourite and something I enjoy spending a little money playing.

To place a bet on Williamhill click here!

With so much competition nowadays from all the Casino based websites trying to get your custom the one tip I would give you is to shop around before signing up because like Sports book sites all the Casino sites are offering some great deals to get you on board with some good signing up deals and some great promotion offers for both betting and getting friends to join up.

My favourite Casino/Poker site out of all the ones on the Internet is VC Poker who gives you free money when you first join and regularly tops up your account when you have accumulated enough AP points which you get by just playing on tables whether you win or lose!

Also when you have racked up enough AP points you can take a look at the tournament tab and look at how many tournaments allow you to join with your AP points instead of parting with real cash for the chance to win great prizes, more AP points or real dosh which is a great way to spend them nights when there is nothing decent on the telly to watch.

Ladbrokes : Premiership highlights

  • April 28th, 2009

Ladbrokes – What a weekend of action we have just had in the English Premiership this weekend. Saturday we had Liverpool who after hitting the bar and post five times in 90 minutes had Israeli midfielder Benayoun to thank after his injury time winner gave the Pool a vital three points in their away game at Fulham and for 24 hours had them at the summit once more.

To place a bet on Ladbrokes.com click here!

Saturday also had West Brom beaten at home by Stoke City 2-0 and because of this now looked doomed at the foot of the table and barring a miracle look certs for the drop, like wise Middlesbrough who were hammered 4-0 away at Bolton and had their fans calling for manager Gareth Southgates head after they now look also certain to be playing Coca Cola Championship football next season after now being 5 points from safety.

Newcastle who now have local hero Alan Shearer in charge for the remainder of the season fought very well against Chelsea at St James Park but were outdone by goals from Frank Lampard and Malouda in the Londoners 2-0 victory leaving Newcastle two points from safety.

Sunderland completed a miserable weekend for the north east going down 2-0 to West Ham in London and now face a hard battle to stay up with neighbours and rivals Newcastle only two points behind.

Sunday was the day that a new star looked to be born, Italian teenager Macheda climbed off the bench with Manchester United 2-1 behind at home to Aston Villa with half hour to go and before the final whistle he helped his team to a fantastic 3-2 win with himself grabbing a glorious winner in injury time.

So now with 8 games to for United they are once again at the top by a point and still crucially with a game in hand.

paddy power review

  • April 27th, 2009

Paddy Power is a sport betting shop and website that originates from the lovely country of Ireland. Formed in 1988 Paddy Power came to life when the three biggest Irish high street bookmakers at the time all joined together to try and rival the kingpins of the bookies trade in the UK Ladbrokes and William Hill and now has well over 170 shops operating under its logo across the whole of the UK.

To place your bet at paddypower.com click here!

 

The website has built a massive fan base over the past decade largely due to the highly respected and unique ‘money back specials’ which Paddy Power can happily boast to being the best at offering across a wide range of Sports.

The sport which Paddy Power tends to concentrate more on is Horse racing but coming from Ireland you can hardly blame them for that considering the amount of knowledge they have regarding particularly jump racing and following a horse that comes down in the betting quick at Paddy Power could well be a money earner.

Customer support at Paddy Power is top notch to say the least; they have reliable and professional customer support staff available through both email and the telephone, they have a knowledgeable team that will try to resolve any problems that you may experience in either setting up your account or making a bet as quickly as possible unlike other sites that you can wait days to get an answer from.

Joining up at Paddy Power today is also better than normal because they are offering you a free £30 to bet with for a limited time only instead of their usual free tenner! So do not delay join Paddy Power today.

Bewin – French Open 2009

  • April 26th, 2009

Bewin – Although after dominating the French Open for the last few years and not surprisingly being made odds on favourite 3/10 at Bet365 I think Rafael Nadal may well find this year’s tournament being the hardest one to win to defend and there certainly is a lot of value in a few of his opponents for this year’s showpiece event at Roland Garros Paris.

To place your bet on bewin click here!

 

As the Spanish players over the years have been renowned for their ability on the clay surface I feel the price of 22/1 being offered on Fernando Verdasco is very generous indeed and may well be worth an each way bet that pays a 1/3 of the odds if he makes the final of the tournament and with his great early season form he may well just do that.

Another player playing very well at the moment is Britain’s best hope for a grand slam in years Andy Murray, with clay being one of his strongest surfaces and him knocking on the grand slam door after a remarkable last 18 months picking up minor trophies regularly I think at 11/1 he could well be the best bet and I certainly will be placing a wager on a Nadal V Murray final if the draw separates both players.

For the punters that love a long shot to have a little stake on then Juan Carlos Ferrero’s 125/1 seems a remarkable price when you take in consideration that Clay is also his best surface and if the rounds spring up a few surprises you never know.
