:0 .. maybe B.E.B.S. might need some attention ?
|
|
By:
B.E.B.S. ???
|
|
By:
back eng blind strategy :p
|
|
By:
at 67% ROI in last 16 tests... i think B.I.B.S has to be one of the successful betting strategies ever .... Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery :D
|
|
By:
lets take it over a decent bit of time to make the stats more relevent eh .. lets say .. 10yrs .. over that period i would say that L.D.B.S. would be showing a better ROI than the B.I.B.S. .. i'm only guessing but i fancy the draw lay would be better .. of course i doubt there would be much in it between B.E.B.S. and B.I.B.S. .. when i've got some time i might even look the stats up ;)
|
|
By:
Smeagors ... L.T.D.B is showing around 6% ROI after 72 tests ... 61% behind B.I.B.S :)
Ok 16 tests not a big sample .. but in last 10 years injuns had famous wins over Aussies that would have seen them at least 10.0 prematch... at least 4 wins at those prices ... just those 4 wins have payed for 40 test losses .... so even if you aplied B.I.B.S over 10 years it would still leave L.T.D.B trailing in its wake ;) |
|
By:
Er, which 4 wins are those Joe? I hope you're not including the 2001 series in that, because there's no way India would have been 10.0 pre-match at home to Aus, even then. Obviously you'd have made a killing through top-ups in-running, but the pre-match odds wouldn't have been anything like that.
The wins in Aus, yes, fair enough, and the win in SA. But I can't think of any others that would have been double digits. |
|
By:
SP take a point or two i reckon even ones in india would have been around 10.0 .. dont forget aussies were playing there after winning 17 tests on the trot .. twice :0
|
|
By:
They were barely 10.0 in Aus (the Perth Test in 2007/08) - there's no way they would have been that in India. In my opinion anyway - I've no idea what the actual prices were.
|
|
By:
they were 10.0 at waca cos aussies had no warne/mgrath...injuns were in top 4 of rankings ... in 2001 injuns were not so high in rankings and as i say aussies had won 17 tests in a row and were deemed unbeatable :0
I would hazard a guess aussiesn region of 1.3.. draw must have been 2nd fav.. and injuns rank outsiders ... wether they were 8.0 .. or 10.0 .. or 15.0 ;) |
|
By:
Aus 1.3 pre-match to win a Test in India. OK. If that's the sort of retrospective pricing you're basing things on then I'll leave you in peace.
|
|
By:
maybe someone can remember the exact price :(
|
|
By:
From vauge memory Ithought Aussie were around 1.7 the draw at about 3 and that makes India.......
|
|
By:
i find it hard to believe you could have got 1.7 on a team that had won 17 previous tests... and had beaten injuns convincingly in previous test :0 .. but if thats what you say.. fair enough :)
|

By:
1.3 or 1.7 .. bit of disparity here .. :0
