Risking my money on Kairat and other underdogs… $10 to $1000 challenge

Day 2:

Day 1 didn’t go amazingly well. I am up $0.92 which is a 9.2% increase. The goal is a daily average of 16.6% to reach the $1000 goal.

Bayern saved me yesterday, paying me out $7 from a $2.78 bet. Madrid failed me, PSV failed me, but I did snatch $2.00 from the Monaco win vs. Bodø/Glimt.

I have $10.92 to spend today and the ideal number for tomorrow would be at least 13.60. This is doable, but I need to rely on some upsets as well if I really want to hit $1k.

The Chelsea-Qarabag game is going on right now and Qarabag and the Azerbaijani team just bagged an equalizer. I’m going to bet no for a Chelsea win here where $0.98 will get me $3.00.

Next up, I will put a little bit for a Pafos FC win against Villarreal. It’s 0-0 right now but the Cypriot team is holding really strong posession. It’s unlikely, but I will bet $0.54 for a $5.00 payout if they win.

For my last upset, I will bet on Inter to NOT beat Kairat Almaty. At home. Which is really dumb now that I think about it but what’s done is done. $0.86 will payout $20.00. What was I thinking…

I feel pretty confident in Barcelona beating Club Brugge away, so I bet $3.38 for a $5.00 payout.

I will say, I feel more confident about Newcastle losing against Athletic Club, so I will bet no (1.53) for a Newcastle win to lose or draw, paying out $5.00.

For my last bet, I’m betting for a Marseille win against Atalanta at home. Their odds are only 41% but they are in much better form than Atalanta. A draw scares me here since Atalanta are draw merchants this year, but I’ll trust Marseille… $2.14 for $5.00.

(Note, Qaragbag are now up against Chelsea, 2-1 🙂
