I've  been  laying  horses  in  the  UK  overnight  with  moderate  sucess  the  system  I apply  is  from  the  frontline  lay  betting  website  whereas  I  go  through  the  cards  in  the  UK  and  only  lay  in  races  that  are  handicap  one's.

lay  all  favourites  that  are  under  $4.00

Usually  through  the  week  there  are  between  1  to  4  bets  placed  on  most  nights 
Saturday  meetings  there  can  be  up  to  6  or  more  lays 

Betfair  advertise  20%  better  odds  and  with  5%  com  it  really  is  a  hard  tarsk
but  never  the  less  this  system  does  win  slowly  with  lots  of  ups  and  downs

Is  there  anybody  out  there  that  has  a  lay  system  that  definately  works  either  in  the  UK  or  Australia  who  would  like  to  post  there  system  here  for  us  to  see
I  know  that  this  sort  of  thing  has  been  bantered  around  before  but  maybe  someone  out  there  has  something  we  can  get  a  quid  out  of  please  reply  if  you  have.  IN  DETAIL.

I can tell you something that does'nt work.

Laying 12/1 shots at 30/1, anywhere.

Its a tough game laying here with markets at 98 to 102 %.Less the 6.5% commission its  a loser .

I also had some success trading the UK  fields, its fairly easy to green up for a few $$$.That gets wiped out when one does'nt get matched and invariably wins by half the length of the straight.

Its uncanny the number of times you  lay something and dont get set, gets beaten,Then you lay something at under the current offer, it gets taken and bolts in.

Im with lazza, its more and more a lucky dip for the punters and a boat race for those with vested interests {jockeys}

Bet for recreation only.

Good luck with anything else, let us know if you succeed.

How  about  you  go  back  to  your  database  and  find  out  how  you  can  win  laying  horses  to  lose

Sorry sir - I'll get right to it.

Alternatively, I can just wire you however much money you would like to win?

I've got plenty of suggestions.

One of them would be for you to go and get fcuked. I was trying to save you some time by giving you the results to what you were doing, but I can see gratitude isn't something you posses.

ROFL, thanks for brightening up by afternoon Laugh
Now in all seriousness, DK, this is very interesting stuff. I have a database for Aussie but not for UK.
Does it work something like Southcoast? Is the DB adapted from something like Southcoast or similar?
I have done all that work locally. Cost me nearly 15k to set up. Still not using it...

There are quite a few of them in the UK (unlike here). I get all my data from Proform, the software has endless possibilities including an in-running module for those sort of strategies if you wish. The owner (Simon) is as good a bloke to deal with as you will get.

The software is about $200 to setup which comes with about 15 years of back data (compare to about $2500 for Southcoast), a system builder and all the usual stuff. I don't use the software at all, only export the raw data into my own database to interrogate.

When: 05 Jul 12 06:19
Same same, DK. I dont use their algorithms, just my own.

That is extremely cheap for the software and back data. I don't know why I bothered with Southcoast...wishing I hadn't now.
By:
Dark....Target
When: 05 Jul 12 06:22
It is. There are about 5 providers in the UK all around the same price.

And the Proform software is absolutely top notch, makes Southcoast look like its running on a Commodore 64 Cry

I  didn't  ask  anyone  for  a  statistic  ananlysing  report  I  asked  if  anyone  had  a  system  or  any  suggestions  obviously  there  are  no  punters  replying  just  statistic  experts,  with  plenty  of  data  and  no  lay  betting  knowledge.

Southcoast still use Foxpro. That was decent 10 years ago. Now it's just crap.

temlee, we hijacked your thread to discuss something more interesting. Please get back in your box.
By:

When: 05 Jul 12 06:31
Yeah its sh1te, but it is blisteringly fast. You can export a years worth of data in Southcoast in about a minute.

Temlee - how you propose to evaluate whether your system is successful? You have 2 options, do it yourself for a year, or ask nicely for someone to test it for you and find out in a few minutes.

I doubt anyone will be willing to help you know though.

Crazy - do you have a database of historical AFL results and odds?

Also do you have an algorithm to come up with your rated odds or just do it by "feel"?
By:
CrazySnake
When: 05 Jul 12 06:45
Dark,

There are a few AFL based DBs around. I used to do mine in house but historical data for AFL is usually only good for about one year. I am not a subscriber to the old "this team has had the wood on that one for years" mentality, although game styles do make that difference and some teams play a game style that troubles others. It's nothing whatsoever to do with personnel after 5 years though IMO.

Have a hunt around. This one will get you started: http://www.footyform.com.au/

I do the year in hand but I no longer bother with the bigger task as the value in it is questionable for mine.

I make subjective judgments based upon feel, but I rate the prices per a pragmatic algorithm I created.

When: 05 Jul 12 06:53
Yeah I've seen that site... I have an AFL database I put together from footywire but struggled to get enough historical odds data to do the testing that i wanted to do Cry

I suspect the algorithm I use for probabilities in my racing betting wouldn't be used by many (if any) in Oz sports betting...

But i need a huge amount of data to make it possible for the predictions to be accurate

Temlee - I can put you onto a mate of mine, Biff. He has a sports almanac he might be willing to sell you?

Horse racing systems fall into the same category as trying to determine the outcome of future football games based upon previous results. Whilst some data can point to an advantage or otherwise, resting solely on the bigger picture will send you broke.
You need to know WHY teams or horses or whatever finds an advantage. If you are looking for repeatable data to create a system the rules have to make sense. Tem, on the surface the rules of your system don't make alot of sense unless you can say exactly why they would or would not work...

historial data on AFL, results and betting odds is useless any further back than 3years, maybe four
By:

Loggy,

Didn't I pretty much say that?

Tem,

I can post an article from an old book I have called "Making A System". I would have to type it, fortunately I am not a one finger typist.
By:
Dark....Target
When: 05 Jul 12 07:04
Similar to that, yes.

Most definitely don't use systems of any sort, wouldn't give you 2 bob for a horse racing system.

The basis of any market I look at for something like this, is how efficient the market actually is. I can tell you there is definitely inefficiencies in the AFL head to head markets but didn't have enough odds data be accurate if i introduced more than a view variables....

When you say "inefficiencies" what do you mean?
