Unlucky Blockfire, you had a really good run going there too. I am not feeling very confident about mine, Wrexham already had a goal chalked off.

Yeah bit gutted actually thought that one would sail in, good luck with yours pal.

That was very unlucky Block but these Finns are shoite ain't they, looked it up just now 3 yellow cards in match all in last 10 mins.
Anyway great effort there at least you took your stake back.

Bet 1 Chelters v Wrexham £10 @ 1.31.

Bad luck Blockfire you were going well. Will you have another go?
Going for one with odds a bit more than I usually do but they have both been scoring recently and their games against each other seem to contain a goal or more.

With the international break upon us, there is very slim pickings to be had until the break is over. There will be very few games I get on, if any, between now and the end of the break. SIR BOND, it is already proving to pay off with others already withdrawn more than the original stakes or close to it, and still a bank to play with. Have you ever tried this yourself?

well done winner quick ones are always good! Lol.

By:

The_Winner_Takes_It_All When: 01 Sep 15 20:24

Thanks quizman, considering there is hardly anything decent to pick from you done really well today and cruising overall. It's not often get them quick ones, but so good when you do. I was lucky I had 2 quick ones, got on the Kilmarnock game just after half time, think they scored about 8 mins after half time. Then the Dundalk game must of been about 20 seconds or something i'd been on it and they scored :) Good luck :)

So far this season I have done 5 attempts at getting 10/10 then restarting (with the plan being £100 to £200 ish in ten bets) one failing, so a profit of £300 ish out off 5 attempts.
My run is something like 36 consecutive correct one loser then 20 consecutive correct if you look at the table I put up on page 1 or 2 of this thread I would of been on approx £350 stake going into the real madrid game which was my losing bet.

SO FOR DISCUSSION AND VIEWS

It was mentioned by a previous poster that inputting some sort of cover on a 0-0 scoreline would be a better way of doing the challenge if you wanted to go all the way to the 90 bet challenge.

So taking that bet number of mine 36 what would be the best policy at that point.?
At what stage of the run do you start putting cover on the 0-0?
What % of stake or staking plan would you implement?
Any positives negatives around covering the 0-0 ?

Over to the knowledgeable, the knockers the cranks the d.g.a.f and the rest of the posters.

First of all Knuckes well done for making a tidy profit and making good selections :)

Over to the knowledgeable, the knockers the cranks the d.g.a.f and the rest of the posters I am not sure which category I come under, but here is my few pence worth

So taking that bet number of mine 36 what would be the best policy at that point.? Pass, someone else might have a better idea

At what stage of the run do you start putting cover on the 0-0? Maybe half time? I have sometimes looked at the 0-0 at half time when there has not been many attempts/shots on goal and thought maybe I should cover the 0-0, but never have as yet. Most of the times it's been ok, and the odd time on previous bets I could of kicked myself for not doing it.

What % of stake or staking plan would you implement? Everyone has their own targets, you're doing 90 bets? Maybe whatever profit you have above each target bet, take it out? That's my plan, even though i've taken a bit more out than I originally planned.

Any positives negatives around covering the 0-0 ? One might say you can't lay 0-0 cos you have to go all the way, on the other hand sometimes when games look awful and never look like scoring it makes sense to maybe take a small loss overall and not lose your entire bank? To me it's all about staying in the game, if I had hundreds on a game and they never looked like scoring by about 55-60 mins for example, I would be tempted to at least cash out just to stay in the game so to speak.

Good luck :)
