Offshore Oscar’s pick May 27 – We are going to try something here

By: Offshore Oscar | Comments No Comments

The season is quickly winding down, and from the looks of our recent results, it can’t happen soon enough. Last weekend we were very close on everything but didn’t connect on anything.
Now with the one huge game on Wednesday in Rome, and a few more decent matches this coming weekend, we are almost done [...]

Offshore Oscar’s picks for May 5, 6 – London Locks

By: Offshore Oscar | Comments No Comments

Even as I typed that this last weekend was “easy money” I thought it would be funny if my picks went 0 for 3, but to everyone’s surprise we swept the board and now have so much profit for the season that I’ve had to hire extra security, or at least I would have if [...]

Offshore Oscar’s picks Feb-24, 25 – Champions League midweek specials

By: Offshore Oscar | Comments No Comments

When Stoke’s Ryan Shawcross was credited with the teams’ third goal against Portsmouth in the 90th minute, it felt like a sweet moment for our wager, which could have only been made better had it not been an own-goal that locked the match up at two-all. Such is betting on the so-called beautiful game, and [...]

Offshore Oscar’s picks for November 29 and 30

By: Offshore Oscar | Comments 2 Comments

My parlay on the midweek games started out well with Aalborg coming back for a late result, but the Werder Bremen game made me feel as unlucky as a Mumbai bellhop. This weekend’s plays are rock-solid though, so make some money along with us, will you? The ridiculously hot Denise Milani has asked me to [...]

Offshore Oscar’s picks for November 25 and 26

By: Offshore Oscar | Comments No Comments

My use of voodoo dolls had mixed results, so I don’t know what to think. Inter came through, but the shortest price on my 3-team parlay couldn’t even manage a draw, and Athletico Madrid managed to give up an equalizer in the 94th minute. WTF? I didn’t even know there was a 94th minute, and [...]

Offshore Oscar’s results for November 4 and 5

By: Offshore Oscar | Comments No Comments

Good news and bad news: The bad news is I lost both my crazy midweek bets, but the good news is I’ve recently discovered some paper towels that are 25% more absorbent than the leading brand, so it’s kind of a wash for me at this point.
1 – Longshot Shakhtar hung in there for most [...]

Offshore Oscar’s picks for November 4 and 5

By: Offshore Oscar | Comments No Comments

After building the bankroll with a series of safe and solid bets, now it’s time to get stupid since we are playing with pure winnings. The Champion’s League matches this week provide a perfect opportunity to roll the dice, and if my Ukrainian parlay comes through I’ll finally be able to afford a personal computer, [...]

Offshore Oscar’s picks for October 21 and 22, 2008

By: Offshore Oscar | Comments No Comments

I’m back in Amsterdam after my Ireland debacle, and I’ve really become addicted to the coffee here, or at least the coffee shops. I spent an hour in one of them yesterday but it turned out to be 9 hours as I somehow lost track of time.
Original bankroll: 1,000 units
Current bankroll: 1,077 units
