trying to get matched on the psv game,
im less than impressed with the start to this 'system' so will abandon it @-14.96% i will start a new thread for under 4.5 goals for better value odds imo and also out of my 16 attempts only 3 were over 4.5. a benefit of under 4.5 is that more bookies have the option making it easier to spread the money if and when the bank gets to that size. basically i was taking 1.07 if lucky and most selection didnt get more than 3 goals for under 4.5 im looking at 1.17 and more although if take the strike rate from under 5.5 id be bout even , better than -15% |

The first goal only came after 59 minutes. May I ask why you didn't trade out? |
|
By:
trading out is not part of my strategy, not sure what type of rules i would impose for trading out , when , why , at what price etc
|
|
By:
I see. Well, I do believe that one should either always trade out (profit or loss) or never, but at odds of 1.01 it really doesn't make sense to keep a bet running as it can only turn against you. I know they only get busted once in a blue moon, but when it happens you feel really dumb for being greedy and letting it run.
My rule of thumb when I bet Unders (2.5/3.5/4.5) is to trade out when I can secure a profit of roughly .11 or .21 (i.e., going in at 2.08 and getting out at 1.97 or 1.87), depending on how secure I feel about the bet and how long it takes for the odds to fall. It doesn't make you rich and takes a lot of patience, but nowadays teams are so concerned about not conceding rather than scoring more goals that there's almost always an opportunity for a decent trade. The priority is to keep the 'exposure time' as small as possible. I don't know how much you're up/down overall, but if you're getting burned by goals scored relatively late in the game, maybe setting yourself a target profit for each bet and trading out accordingly might be worth considering? (Just a friendly word of advice, not saying you're doing it wrong. ) |

i appreciate what your saying, this is the first game i have noticed that was 0-0 at such a late stage , i have quite a few where there has been 2 or 3 early goals then nothing, your strategy sounds ok for a trading strategy, as for under 4.5's im taking 1.11 quite often so to trade id maybe look at a 0.05 profit. amounts dont bother me if i know it works long term then im happy , compound interest will take care of the rest.

There's no winning 'system' to football betting as no one game is the same, I think (unless you can automate it, but even those bots seem to mess up every now and then). Good luck with it, hopefully you're still in it after 100 bets.

i agree there is no 'system' as such, im careful not to use that word, this is just a trial, my real betting bank is doing just fine using good working practises , in profit the last 3 yrs, this trial is -32.77% at the moment, im sorta hoping that i lose the full 100% quickly at the mo then i think ill reverse the thing, still tho could add ways to get better value with inplay betting,
