Good idea loaded, trying to get up to £10 tonight with a cheeky NHL bet. See if I can, then I'll give it a go.

Obviously you have to pick the right ones, but with a little bit of thought and some knowledge it can be done. My teams that went at least 1-0 up then I backed today were:
Ecuador, Penarol, Vasco, Russia, Velez, Cyprus (Before the goal), Uruguay, France U20, Slovakia and South Korea. The opponents for Uruguay Vasco and Cyprus all managed to equalise but not before half-time. My tennis picks for the day usually a break or 2 up in a set or a set up and leading in games were not all big names because the odds often disappeared too quick: Vinci? 1.02, Duque Marino?, Begu? 1.03, Federer 1.01, Nishikori 1.04, Arvidsson? 1.01, Pennetta?, Roddick 1.05, Ferrer, Michaella Krajicek? 1.22 All the question marks are players I had never heard of but a quick check to see if they are a) seeded and b) opponent is less qualified (from betfair drop down thingy) gives me a strike rate of 100% I know nowt bout tennis but seems fairly easy. |

Just looked back at my 3 months of tennis betting, I have 3 losses, 1 was a mistake when I backed no 6-0 set at 1.06 foolishly because I saw the first set was 6-4. 2nd was redding out because market moved against me. 3rd was the bet longest ago which was laying Monfils at 1.29, dam good for 51 markets (I didn't used to do tennis much)

shazza use your knowledge of football and stats. Ive seen you give plenty of good tips before. it seems you lost your bank and now your scared to lose again. This week i used the fact theres goals galore in the scottish lower leagues. Use what you know and dont going looking for quick results. From what i see from your posts your trying to hard to make very quick money, but tiny amounts. pick your bets.

agree about the confidence loss from losing... think we all get those runs of a few days where no matter what you pick it goes the other way. You may think it's irrelevant but if you can get a copy of any of poker legend Doyle Brunson's books they are great for the gamblers mindset and my fave quote of his is "to be successful at gambling you need to have a complete disregard for money" and it's very true, you also need to leave emotion out of it completely.

Thanks for the posts guys, very informative. I'm looking more carefully and I started last night. Had a few good wins too in the NBA & NHL.
I'll try what you've all said and see how I get on. On a side note meadway, I had a little look at the lower Scottish divisions and had 2 really good wins and 2 really bad ones - it's amazing how unpredictable football can be at times. Bet 35. Sheff Utd v Scunthorpe - Mexico v Colombia - £2.95 at 1.12 - WON Bet 36. Basketball Multiple - Pistons/Jazz - £1 at 2.39 - WON Bet 37. Toronto at Chicago - Chicago - £5 at 1.57 - WON New Bank: £13.28 |

Have to agree with previous posts, when you have a loss especially a big loss, your confidence gets knocked. You seem to know your stuff when it comes to footy bets, I would stick with it mate and carry on splitting the bank, no matter how small. GL

In almost a week you have had 44 bets and gone from £4.49 to £8.88.
On the plus side you've doubled your bank. On the other hand, it's going to take you f*cking ages to get to £100! |
|
By:
just put L8.88 in AGOVV to win at odd 9 (FC Eindhoven v AGOVV)
it's quicker that way to get back your money |
|
By:
or even better put L8.88 for Draw/AGOVV at odd 20

Put a £2 double on:
Over 3.5s on LFC/Arsenal game Chelsea Win And then put £2 of the winnings on 3-3 for Totty/Manu game. Trust! I have been told by a wise old man down the pub he was in the skip outside with a tin hat on.  |

New Bank: £11.66 as Detroit won. |

Shazza,
You will be here until the end of time trying to make £50, nevermind £100. If u look back at your 72 bets, look at the winners and losers, you'll see that most of your winners are for over 0.5 goals. Why not stick to doing that..? You can double your money every 7 bets or so. You'd have £100 in 1 week. When you hit £100, create 2 x £50 banks. 7 bets on each bank and you'll soon have 2 x banks of £100. Easy peasy  |

I'm thinking of just doing that, or backing out right winners like I did with Real Madrid today.

Down to £3 exactly, time to go full bank

Back winners and over 2.5s on fav teams, when they score 1 goal on a £2 bet u can cash out i think with about £1.20+ profit, might be a safe way to get ur bank back to £50+ then risk like £4 per game, then when at £100 move onto £7 per game, then when on £150 do £10 a game then at £200, withdraw £150 and retry. with £50 starter. or keep moving up £2-3 a bet while keeping most ur winnings.
Ofcourse u dont have to trade all bets... this way so once u get to a stable bank of about £20-25 u can leave some games to run. Anyways... thats my tip for the day. |
