lets do this katie

[mcnugget]

Cool found some free money on betfair layed Taylor from 1.08 - 1.12 and backed Jonas at 4

There is still some 1,25 to lay against 4.0 unfortunately after last week my betfair boots are full

I must be reading you wrong, you layed Taylor and backed Jonas that means you're screwed if Taylor wins

[Icarus152]

27 billion years travelling at the speed of light to get to Mars. And yet they managed to get the pictures sent back with only a 10 minute delay.

You're only messing with me right?

Well I was being flippant with the figure 27 but it most certainly is in the 10's of billions.

Yordan Yovchev fails to win a medal in the rings in his 6th Olympics. He is 39 years old and I never heard of him before today.

Thanks I needed that.

[Denny Crane]

Done

Laying Katie Taylor is retarded.

[cardshark202]

The Algerian who won the 1500m semi final last night has been fucked out of the Olympics for 'not trying' in the 800m heats after he was accidentally entered by his national team.

Ah that's ridiculous. He was only on the start line because his country forgot to withdraw him. Seems way too harsh.

[MegaSin]

I found the answer "about 0.000042385 light years" on a few sites on the internet.

[LuckyLloyd]

meh

meh what? Meh, you reckon he still has a shot; or meh you aren't disappointed O' Connor is done?

[Frossach]

go go katie

[Flushdraw]

'The most talked about Irish Sportsperson of the last decade, Katie Taylor'

Ahhhh Jimmy

[KevIRL]

Cyprus takes silver in the mens Laser, their first ever olympic medal

[ghostface]

no dodgy decision no dodgy decision.....

[Strewelpeter]

I'm green laying both of them.

Jonas worth a little more happy to settle for less.

[Teddie]

Great support for her.

[LuckyLloyd]

Some atmosphere!

[eamonhonda]

ole ole ha ya really cant bring us anywhere

[eamonhonda]

ya'd swear the fight is in bray

[Mellor]

Boxing stream.

aertv.ie and the eurosport one not working

[ghostface]

3 up going to last

[LuckyLloyd]

She was in trouble for parts of that round. This isn't easy obviously. Come on Katie!

[eamonhonda]

3 up going to last

2nd last. 4 x 2 mins in womens

[Flushdraw]

3 up going to last

2nd last

[LuckyLloyd]

3 up going to last

4 rounds mate...

[ghostface]

How many rounds is it?

Standing count ayo

[rounders123]

The ref doesnt like breaking them. He would never ref a bare knuckle traveller fight.

[LuckyLloyd]

8 up going into the last 2 minutes. Just needs to be smart now. Some performance.

[Teddie]

Brilliant round. Just needs to avoid that big shot now.

[NewApproach]

Someone should do a gif of Katie knocking the snot out of Jonas's nose at the end of the third

[ghostface]

jesus Katie knocked the shit out of her in the 3rd

Finkel would still batter her tho

[LuckyLloyd]

That's what living up to the hype looks like.

[ghostface]

if that's the atmosphere for the quarters the other rounds will be epic

[Bubbleking]

what a class act

[LuckyLloyd]

RTE studio with tears in their eyes. For me, the crowd was awesome - to have an English fighter out cheered in London, class.

[KevIRL]

What a performance. Great stuff from the crowd too, hard to believe she was fighting a British fighter in London

[Keane]

She's super hot as well.

[Mellor]

Stream was blocking access outside the EU.
Should be a video up soon somewhere.

[Bubbleking]

She's super hot as well.

agreed. she'd destroy you though

[The Situation]

Marvelous! British girl never landed 4 scoring points in the 3rd so think Katie won even more convincingly than the scoreboard suggested.

[eamonhonda]

Fingers crossed wont be in work day she comes home!

[thedini]

@ Strewelpeter, where are the boxing fights listed? can't find them thanks.

[eamonhonda]

shove it up your gash

[Zod]

Season 2 of the Walking Dead was much better than Season 1. It's nothing at all liek the comics, but by itself it's a good program.

[Mellor]

@ Strewelpeter, where are the boxing fights listed? can't find them thanks.

edit nvm
you meant on bf

[Strewelpeter]

@ Strewelpeter, where are the boxing fights listed? can't find them thanks.

Under Olympics > Boxing

I was laying both of them I just made a shite of explaining it.

[Opr]

Eh, people don't understand betfair. Strewelpeter was backing a rick not a specific outcome.

I must be going mad, still can't find them. I've gone into Olympics >Boxing> Women >Light and still no fights listed just Gold medal Winner and To Win A Medal!!!!!!!!!!!

dumb it down another notch please

That's all there is that's why I was checking that they were mutually exclusive to win a medal.

I thought the bots picked up any anomalies automatically, I suppose they have to be pointed at the markets

Updated Irish boxing diary for the rest of the week...

Sunday: JJ Nevin fights for a medal @8:45pm WINS 19-13
Monday: Katie Taylor fights for a medal @2:30pm WINS 26-15
Tuesday: Michael Conlon fights for a medal @9pm
Wednesday: Katie Taylor semi-final bout @2pm
Wednesday: Paddy Barnes fights for a medal @8:45pm
(Thursday: Possible Katie Taylor final @4:45pm)
Friday: JJ Nevin semi-final bout @2pm

If either Barnes or Conlon make their semis they will also fight on Friday - Barnes would be at lunchtime, Conlon in the evening.

If we get any men to the final, they would fight Saturday night (Barnes or Nevin) or Sunday lunchtime (Conlon).

[Opr]

dumb it down another notch please

If one side of the market is 1.08 it means the other side should be around 9/1. If one side of the market has Taylor at 1/10 and the other girl at 3/1 free monies can be made.

Thanks whore!

Watching Katie's opponents on the beeb red button. Nothing too scary so far. The British girl had a pretty poor draw. Queen underwho? And then Katie. Easier fights out there.

You had me confused talking about match odds when it was medal odds that you were trading on well spotted.

[Mellor]

Winning that fight and winning a medal was the same thing.

But the win a medal is priced by the 8 fighters left. Based on Taylor and Jonas only, it was a less than 100% book, aka free monies

[LuckyLloyd]

She's super hot as well.

She'd probably make you say 3 decades of the rosary first though...

The bots are programmed for football and tennis etc. Not women's boxing at the Olympics. Not worth the programming time given the market size etc.

[Raoul Duke III]

She'd probably make you say 3 decades of the rosary first though...

She's born-again, so most certainly would not.

Doubt she'd be into pre-marital intercourse though

[40something]

Delighted for Katie, gutted for Ms. Murphy

Those Olympic sailors are in a different class to us mere mortals, never have I experienced so many place changes during the course of a race, and that goes for every race. The difference in skill between the top 4 was negligible as was evident when the leader can go to the back of the fleet and then to the front with a couple of tactically clever tacks.
