pick any 3 player to score at anytime in the premier league
min payout 12/1
who would you pick this week
Just phoned PP customer service. They have no knowledge of this bet.
Shame, I'd have been on this like a rash.
Was this a shop special dw7?

Not suggesting it isn't better value than usual, but it would be interesting to know if it's stacked in favour of the bookies or is a genuine loss leader that they expect to be paying out on. Maybe they're expecting to lose on the Drogba, Torres, Rooney combo but win elsewhere?
Stats are complicated, for example if you take a group of around 60 people, its 99% certain that you'll get two with birthdays on the same day even though, with 365 days in the year, that seems unlikely. It may be that 12-1 is good value for this bet, or it may be that it "appears" good value on first glance, but is actually not that likely (despite the fact that it appears to have happened quite a lot recently).

Key to the bet is to look at the fixtures. i.e. You'd imagine someone like Drogba/Torres more likely to score against Hull than Liverpool/Chelsea.
The Euro bet looks a good 'un. Ronaldo, Messi & RVP was a nice midweek treble. Their 3 teams the shortest on the CL coupon.
Also plenty of scope to lay off if you get first two in. i.e Say Keane & Rooney score today you can lay your 12/1 bet (RVP) at Evs on Betfair.
