    Just taken 11/8 Australia to win the 1st test in the cricket. Stubborn as the resistance is now, one more wicket could end things quickly.

    RE: Swann's Wicket

    If I had waited a tad longer the Aussies odds drifted as far as 7/4, but couldn't risk a wicket falling in the meantime.

    It had the desired effect. LOL! I do this a lot as I can put the kibosh on anything. Didn't work in our FA Cup Semi though. Cardiff won me £50!

    I might do this for every Barnsley game this season as well. Worth the humiliation of getting it wrong - and the expense - to get the result I really want!
