I might be being very stupid here and have overlooked something blatantly obvious but here goes...

If I lay all 4 hands in exchange poker before you see the hole cards at 4.02 for £2 which a lot of bettors are asking for I would take £8 and have liability of £6.04 leaving £1.96 floating around somewhere, yet the screen shows a loss of £0.04 per hand,

Where is the £1.96 going?

Strange. I've used this strategy for the last 2 years. I started small until I built up my balance. I've now increased my stake to £3 and still going strong. The only time you lose is when all 4 hands win. I paid £50 for this system, but IMO it was money well spent. Not all will agree, but I'm happy. I have a great big smile on my face all of the time. Must go now...I think my medication is due.

@ ryan88
the reason you always end up woth a loss is when you take 8 pounds you have to refund the winning bets original stake, which leave you with a 6 pound taking, after you payout the 6.04 you have a loss of 4 pence

I can't understand it. You lay all four hands at higher than the true odds and you lose?

The mistake in your calculation: at least 1 of the 4 hands will win. This is the one where you have to pay for the lost  bet. So you do not make 8 pds, only 6 (or even less if more than 1 winners), as sugarhoneybaby rightly said in post from 14 Dec.
