Going for 3 big guys on the road. Hate playing favs on the road, but I think the talent of the team and strength of their leagues compared to the home teams' is too great:

Steaua ML 100 to win 100
Made great run in the UEFA Cup last year, stronger side and better league than Slovenia team.

Red Star ML 100 to win 100
Cork City is banged up - 4 starters out and no bench to speak of - Always play the same 11.

Dynamo Kyev ML 100 to win 50
Dynamo has alot of injuires. Won't matter. Alot of players (7 I think?) coming back from great run with Ukraine national team. They are a power and have a deep team.

My one worry is the fear that the underdog home teams will sit their whole teams in front of their own goal to try to pull of a draw. So, trying an experiement - doing a round robin on the draw lines + Hearts ML - 4x $15 2 teamers. So, alot of draws would not be a killer, actually could bring in a little profit. All draws, huge profit. All wins huge profit. Any of these teams gets upset, bad news for flap jack.

I don't mean to be rude, but are you really consistent in picking football. The football season is around the corner and i'd like to follow you if you know your stuff.

GL with the picks

Far from consistant - yet! Had a really good year last year, but seem to be really streaky. I've only been wagering on soccer for 3-4 years, so hopefully I'm learning from mistakes and getting better year by year.

Champs League has given me problems in the past - but really haven't done much wager in the early rounds before. Done better sticking to domestic leagues were you can really dig into their head to head, common oppnents, etc - France & Italy have been the best to me along with props like "X to win Serie A", etc.

I haven't posted many of my actual plays until recently. I think it has really helped by forcing me to keep better track and manage my bank better.

I like the Hearts-Fenerbache parlay. They should both cruise.

+$157 on the posted picks. Threw in a last minute Hearts/FC Copen. 50 to win 27 parlay for a nice day.

Didn't need that draw round robin crap - all loses -$90. But, it was some nice insurance if teams hadn't taken care of business.
