Wednesday and Thursday's Big Winning Bets

As the weekend draws closer, we look through some big winning bets over the last few days with action from European football, the opening day of the Aintree Festival, and the Indian Premier League.

Please remember Spread betting carries a high level of risk to your capital and can result in losses larger than your initial stake/deposit. They may not be suitable for everyone so please ensure you fully understand the risks involved.

LIVERPOOL v ATALANTA – LIV/ATA SUPREMACY (SETTLED AT -3)

We start the betting blog roundup at Anfield where Liverpool were stunned by Italian outfit Atalanta last night. The Reds were big favourites for the clash with a Supremacy spread of 1.2-1.4 in their favour and at 1/3 they would have been included in many a multiple.

However, the hosts delivered one of their worst performances during Jurgen Klopp’s tenure and their joint-worst home defeat in European competition will be a bitter pill to swallow for the man who dreamed to take them to Dublin.

A brace from Gianluca Scamacca set Atalanta on their way and Mario Pasalic rounded off the scoring in the 83^rd minute as the boys from Bergamo take a 3-0 lead back to the Stadio Atleti Azzurri d'Italia. It was not only the Italians who were happy as those selling on our Supremacy football spread betting market saw their bets settle at -3 as they won 4.2x their stake.

MANIFESTO NOVICES’ CHASE – GREY DAWNING 50-25-10 (SETTLED AT 10)

Horse racing betting punters made hay yesterday at Aintree with four favourites obliging, but the opening race yesterday saw the well fancied Grey Dawning finish third out of five. With four Grade 1 races on the card, the opening day saw some high-quality horses on show and Il Etait Temps cruised home to win the first race by nine lengths from Ginny’s Destiny.

Sent off at with a spread of 29-32 on our 50-25-10 Race Index, Grey Dawning was laborious trailing home in third, but sellers on the spread found themselves in clover. Collecting just ten points for finishing third, those who had the foresight to place a sell bet collected a win of 19x their stake.

MUMBAI INDIANS v ROYAL CHALLENGERS BENGALURU – JASPRIT BUMRAH PLAYER PERFORMANCE (SETTLED AT 100)

For cricket spread betting punters, attention is firmly on the IPL where four wins and one defeat has seen Rajasthan Royals top the table. At the other end of the table, with just one win from their six matches are Royal Challengers Bengaluru who were walloped by Mumbai Indians during the week.

The side from the east coast rattled off the 197 runs required to win inside 16 overs, but they were handy with the ball as well and it always helps if you have a player of Jasprit Bumrah’s quality in your bowling attack.

Before the match, the Indian paceman had a Player Performance spread (one point per run, 10 points per catch, 20 points per wicket, 25 points per stumping) of 31-35. With Bumrah picking up a five-wicket haul, the market settled at 100 as buyers landed a win of 65x their stake.

Please note that these are examples of winning bets from the past week, and it is important to remember that spread betting carries a high level of risk to your capital and can result in losses larger than your initial stake/deposit.
