Just been browsing the weekend coupon, and come upon a value price that I don't particularly want.

It's Bochum at 4/6 draw no bet against Bielefeld in the Bundesliga.

I don't know what price this should be to be honest. I'm rubbish at working these things out. They're a general 11/10 -0.5, although there's some 5/4 and 6/5 which will probably be chopped soon. I'm guessing 4/7 DNB would be about right.

I have no reasons for fancying Bochum to win this. They were rubbish last week losing to Cottbus, whilst Bielefeld were beating the mighty Bayern Munich. However, a small part of me thinks I should take the price because it's value.

I've always been one to go with instinct. If I really fancy a team I would just as happily take 5/4 as 11/8, although I would probably draw the line at 11/10.

Would you back something you don't fancy at what you conceive to be a value price?
