Anyone ever done a super Heinz or Goliath bet? Wondering how worthwhile they are!

Done a couple, never broken even, betting on favourites on the horses. Unless your loaded you end up putting pennies on per line at x 247 (for a Goliath), 2 or 3 wins out of 8 returns not much. Obviously 8 wins and you can pay your mortgage off. I stick to 3 or 4 selections max these days.

Cheers! Thought that would be the case to be honest. I did a Yankee last week and made about £7 profit so not great. They seem like a good bet to place but then like you say you have to get all 8 correct to actually win decent money!

That right. A 5p goliath is about a £12 stake, i'd rather have a £1 yankee for £11 on 4 favourites, or a 50p e/w Lucky 15 for £15 on 4 bigger priced selections if your betting that sort of money. 

 

Edit : Some bookies have minimum stakes per line so a 5p goliath isn't even possible sometimes.

There wasn't half a dodgy bet today on Skybet I saw.  Notts County at home to Yeovil 7/5 to win!  Notts County in the Playoffs at home to Yeovil who were bottom and couldn't buy a win.  County had a man sent off after 25 minutes and Yeovil score 2 goals at the death to win it.  

 

Sometimes you do wonder!
