After a very exciting betting competition in which Monkey Bet did OK, but, was blown away by a very inspired Cheltenham Festival by The Magical Tipster (in one day he produced a 7/1, 20/1 and another 20/1 which worked out as a 3527/1 treble, as well as coming up with 11/1, 5/6, 14/1 winners to reinforce his superiority).

So the Satanic Bear who is known more for a rather cynical view on lifes little joys, has desire to make a name for himself and take down MT. Satanic Bear’s track record is pretty sketchy so no opinion can be formed as to the likelyhood of his predictions coming good. This should be interesting!

Here is Satanic Bear’s tips for The Grand National at Aintree on 14th April 2012.

Love Is In The Air For The Magical Tipster

The legend that is The Magical Tipster had been damaged after 2010 World Cup competition in South Africa. There was open talk that he had lost his way and the ability to see things that others had missed or the markets had got wrong, had been loosen by some rash decisions such as laying Spain.  

Well all that has been washed away by a tidal wave of monster betting punts with prices which took the bookies by surprise and made his loyal punters extremely happy and more than looking forward to 2012. Who would have thought that The Magical Tipster would re-vitalise his winning ways in such spectacular fashion?

2012 had began very badly, a whole ream of work had disappeared by the in-excusable unprofessional behaviour of a coder who got their knickers in a twist which led to the lose of two years of data and put the pokerknave.com project back. Throughout this time the only thing that looked positive on the horizon was that the world of betting would have some great markets to invest in with the Olympics and Euro football all in the pipeline.

Then out of the blue came Monkey Bet! Monkey Bet is an interesting concept and made a challenge to The Magical Tipster to see if Monkey Bet could supplant The Magical Tipster as the numero uno tipster on pokerknave.com. Very audacious and well timed coup. 

The Monkey Bet started out brilliantly when he got the winner of Celebrity Big Brother right and at some really fancy prices to boot. Reality TV was always a forte of The Magical Tipster so this move by Monkey Bet was a real shot across the bows. Some of his other bets were a bit ropey, but then came Cheltenham Festival 2012 where the real fun would start.

On top of this challenge came another one from a newby called ‘Villan’. Villan made his claim to be the top boy on the pokerknave.com network and came with some good credentials so there were two challenges for the crown. 

The pressure was on and The Magical Tipster did his thing.

Rock On Ruby 11/1 on Tuesday

Nothing on Wednesday

Cape Tribulation 14/1 and Big Bucks 5/6 on Thursday

Brindisi Breeze 7/1, Attaglance 20/1 and Bellvano 20/1 on Friday.

Those prices on Friday created a 3527/1 treble which sealed the competition emphatically in favour of The Magical Tipster. A £10 on each selection made by The Magical Tipster, would have cost £290, but, would have brought in £770 making it a 265% return on investment. 

It is safe to say with those results that the The Magical Tipster has retained his crown…for now!

Watch Out There's A 'Villan' About....!

Once upon a time there was only one main guy for tips and that was The Magical Tipster. MT as he was affectionately called  produced some monster bets on the old Yahoo website, such as two horses winning at 14/1 each to produce a combined odds of 224/1. He made a massive call on predicting that France would not win the FIFA World Cup 2002. In fact he told his avid followers to lay France completely – they went out in the first round without scoring a goal!

He then laid waste on other sporting bets, but then another phase came into being. He found a new stream for his thunderous investment. He killed the reality TV market, backing a high percentage of winners due to the fact that most youngsters did not know they were being usually slipped a ‘Micky Gin’ by the adults and this strategy worked for creating misery every place and hop.

The best moment came when the UK General Election produced an Hung Parliament and The Greens to get their first MP. Both came i n spectacularly and made a few people quite happy.

However the World Cup  2012 gave MT some of the biggest losers and led to the complete collapse of confidence, which was re-inforced with the legendary Paul the Octopus. (or Popul). While Paul was racking up winner after winner. MT was producing losers after loser including that Spain would not win the World Cup because they were ‘bottle merchants’ IE they are so rubbish and will ultimately leave  the competition with their tales between their legs.

Paul The Octopus later made a big  name uptil his untimely death. Some have said his death had something to do with his betting and the amount of money lost but this has always been denied. What was conclusive was that The Magical Tipster had lost his crown as the premier tipping weirdo ho somehow got results. His reputation has seen it’s most serious challenge from The Monkey Bet and now another challenger has emerged called The Villan (sic).

Check out The Villan’s first bets and compare them with The Magical Tipster’s choices.

The first titanic struggle between The Monkey Bet and The Magical Tipster reaches it’s climax this week with the running of the Cheltenham Festival.

This meeting is always good for some monster bets and brilliant horses. Names such as Istabraq and the absolutely wonderful Vor Por Ustedes who made me a lovely amount of lolly when it won. Those Wiltshire boys knew they had a good thing running.

It has been a interesting competition by the two since that challenge on Youtube in which has been made by both. This week should show who has won the first round and has bragging rights. Here is a recap of The Monkey Bet’s Cheltenham Choices.

The Magical Tipsters will be posted at tips.pokerknave.com.
