5-FOR-5 🔥 Now Let’s Cook With 12 More | Europa + Conference Semifinal Bets Inside
Champions League sweep, 20 units up in 20 days, and 12 more bets locked for Thursday. Plus: a Buckets health update for the Toothbrush Army.
THE MIDWEEK HEATER STAYS ON
Let’s not act like this was normal.
We went 5-for-5 on our Champions League bets this week — sweeping both semifinals and finishing +5.4 units across just two games. Over the past 20 days, we’re now +20 units.
If you followed along Tuesday and Wednesday…
🤑 You cashed the Inter-Barça over.
🤑 You cashed on PSG’s home dominance.
🤑 You cashed on Dembele and Saka TSOA.
🤑 You even cashed Buckets’ Barca TT.
(Lewy didn’t start, so we didn’t ride it.)
We could gloat.
We could do a moonwalk.
But there are 12 more bets locked for Thursday’s triple-header.
So let’s get the hell back to work.
🔮 THURSDAY’S 12-PACK OF MADNESS
🏴 MANCHESTER UNITED vs ATHLETIC CLUB 🇪🇸
United lead 3-0 after the first leg, but IPJ sees danger:
✅ Andre Onana 3+ Saves (-105)
“They’ve got to take shots. If you don’t shoot, you don’t score.”
💣 Long Shot: Bruno Fernandes 2+ Shots on Target (+310)
“Goal scorer, goal creator, best player for Manchester United this season.”
🪣 Buckets Best Bet: Both Teams To Score (-125)
“I think Athletic Club will score… if they have enough quality to beat Onana, they’ll get their goal.”
❄️ BODØ/GLIMT vs TOTTENHAM 🏴
3–1 down, home leg in the Arctic, and IPJ smells violence.
✅ Bodø/Glimt Over 1.5 Team Total Goals (+110)
✅ Both Teams To Score + No Draw (+115)
“I think this game is going to be a high scoring affair.”

✅ Nicolas Jackson Anytime Goalscorer (-105)

Half-unit sprinkle recommended.

Quiet value on the visitors to keep it respectable.
🇮🇹 FIORENTINA vs REAL BETIS 🧸
2–1 down after a sloppy first leg, Fiorentina are furious.

🗣️ QUOTE OF THE MONTH: IPJ on Inter v Barcelona
“The last two games between these two teams ended in a 3-3 game. Why would this be any different?”
Spoiler: it wasn’t.
❤️ A NOTE ON BUCKETS 📈
The outpouring of support from hundreds of you has been overwhelming.
And we’re touched.
So for those who’ve asked:
Buckets remains alive, well… and still super cute.
We expect him to be back soon.
Sleep well, Toothbrush Army.

Until then…
