All the evidence points towards that run-lines are not the way to go. Grant and Juce are the ones to ask though.

Report VardonVoo. April 22, 2017 6:12 PM BST
I've just dabbled a bit for peanuts in the past, not followed IPL every year though. Run lines give me something to do in the first half of a match. I often find by the time I've hedged all the positions that I've actually traded off what might have been a good win to exclude the risk of loss, but if I come out slightly ahead I'm reasonably happy.

Always seem to caught the wrong side of match odds - if I lay short and it turns out to be a train, but if I back something it goes the wrong way immediately and never recovers. This match has totally done me over (so far).

Suddenly Mumbai bowling looks great...this is exactly what I said..you can't judge how good a bowling attack is by having one eye on the runs they are defending...Mumbai has a good bowling attack not the best in this IPL but a good one for sure..
Report Charlie April 22, 2017 6:23 PM BST
Thanks VV.
Your post sounds near enough the direct opposite to me. If I try and trade runs it goes pear shaped. I'm just no good at it.

Match odds I rarely lose in T20.

I struggle in Tests though do show a long term profit. It's too slow for me to trade and I lose patience. Weather is another thing I dislike but can see why it's very important.

A lot of it's luck. Stupid shots or blinding catches on runways can finish your run line in seconds

I find if my first bet moves in my favour I get plenty of opportunities to trade the opposite way on other lines either side, which means you can build a position that isn't so vulnerable to the either/or result missing by one or two runs.

My big loss today, this.  Had traded it very nicely to a big DD green and only tiny MI red but couldn't resist some 6s on DD and didn't cash it back out so lost the lot, albeit that the lot wasn't very much.  Has actually been a good day for backing value but then trading for me, not in the sense that I won overall, as I lost £650 on this and only won £150 on the SRH RPS game but was in the sense that I had lovely looking screens on both games and would have won large if either game had gone the other way.
