Phil Mickelson to win, top 10 and top 20 finish in the Houston Open. Only small bets mind.

Novak to win 2-0 has been a great bet for me as well this year. Usually 1/3 or 1/2 during the early rounds but almost a dead cert when he plays on hard courts.

Masters thread in general sport has a lot of discussion on betting for the week in case people haven't spotted it!

I'm from Liverpool like so have no knowledge of baseball but I've had the odd bet on those -1.5 bets this season. Read some stuff that statistical its the sport where the most favourites between 1/2 and evens win so it made me think but my lack of baseball knowledge puts me off.

Froome and Quintana obvious short priced favourites for the stage today in the TdF.

Seeing as its Bastille Day I've had a few quid on Frenchman Thibaut Pinot at 16/1

4/5 on over 1.5 runs in first over eng v Pakistan.

This seems to me to be a good price. If England bat first I suspect they'll be aggressive and Pakistan have struggled a little with their line. Spinner did the real damage.

If Pakistan bat first Jimmy will be bowling. May just try too hard on home pitch

Anyway feel it's worth a few quid!

Any England bowler to take five wickets on second innings currently 11/4 with sky bet. Seems high given Anderson already has two and will bowl again for a full spell after lunch

Bowie - Blackstar at 2/1 to win the Mercury Music Prize.

I can see the judging panel going for the tribute/remembrance factor.

Any Olympics betting going on?

I've set aside a little of money to be placing some small bets on a few of the random events for added interest. Watching a few random sports during the Olympics is great, but having a couple of quid on Charlotte Dujardin to win the individual equestrian, Norway to win the womens handball or the US to win the archery gets me a little bit more into it

I put £300 on China to get 86 or more medals. Managed to cash out £100 at par when the odds moved.

I then lost that £100 on the newcastle game yesterday, so I wont put anymore bets until the end of the Olympics.

Last olympics I put a few bets on basketball. The odds tend to fluctuate quite wildly, so you can some times get good odds on the favourite if you time it right.

Still get 11/10 on England winning the cricket. Given Pakistans soft batting lineup if one more wicket falls this looks great value

I think he meant the match today, Pakistan were 125-5 at that time and the collapse had already started (it was 124-3 only about 15 minutes before and 125-7 by about 15 minutes after), with odds going from about 5/1 to 1/2.

Yep as above.
