the thing is,  last month made over 1k....    did i look at the odds?  no i took whatever was on offer...  so why change a winning model,  end of in my opinion.  dont fix what isn't broke


you have either been lucky over a short time frame or your model is picking out value bets. It's that simple. If something should be priced at 1.01 and you are getting 1.02 you will win long term

i took odds of 1.25 for Barca at weekend,  and odds of evens+ for other games,   if the prog says take it,  i take it....

I am not saying anything good or bad about your program , I'm not even having a go at you.  If you think Barca were too high at 1.25 that's fair enough.  If you are bluffing you will be caught out long term.  If your program is picking them out for you , well and good if it works long term

05/Dec/15    Germany - Bund' 2    SC Freiburg v Union Berlin
05/Dec/15    Italy - Serie B    Cagliari Calcio v Calcio Como

Saturdays games,  perhaps you would like to explain which ones are value or not as the case may be?   
If it wins, does  it matter if it was value?  if it loses,  it doesn't matter if it was value or not

I agree with dlarsoff it is all about value, I'm sure we have all had bad value bets that have won and good value that have gone down. Deciding what is value is the hard bit but I'm still happy doing a tissue for a lot of events before looking at the prices.

It's nothing to do with whether it wins or loses.  You will know by your results long term.  I know **** all about those teams so I don't know.

But for example if liverpool are ten to one to beat Watford that's great value to loads. If the are 1/10 it's the opposite.
If they are 9/1 they are still value but at some point as that price goes down it ceases to be value.

The thing is,  if you say,  example only,  stoke v WBA,  1.1 for 2 goals....    and then again 1.1 for 2 goals in an Austrian or dutch game...   
WBA you would say no chance,  not taking those odds,  yet in the other 2 leagues you expect it to be between 1.1-1.2....     if it wns,  great,  if it loses,  no amount of value will cover th

I agree in principle,   but saying dont take a bet because it is a few tcks too low,  is ninesense,  clearly you would take 1.05 for 2 goals even if it was kids on the playground....    but "average" odds + or minus a few ticks to me is "value"

I think you need to read through the thread again , I never said don't take a bet because the odds are too low.  If fact I said value can be found at 1.01 as well as 100/1

think I agree with the other guys GTFI , ur over 1.5 mkts prices were far too tite for any decent profit ,the 2.5 thread ur playin is all jus luck ,no guaranteed profits like my way of laying horses etc which r below the bookie back price ,e/w in 5-7 horse races r a giveaway ,
By:

When: 01 Dec 15 22:28
I guess time will tell....   i agree with no guaranteed profits,  but "all just luck" is debatable, as it is all based on the last 5 gmaes AND the seasonal average goals,  so there are quite a few formulas in there.

What's horses got to do with goals ? Gtfi has developed a system with a good strike rate, let's give this some time guys then make our decisions. A lot of effort goes into this. Bring on the boooooomsssssss CoolCool

First bet lost. So wait for weekend see how it gets on. Overs is hard to crack let's give it some time.

There is a KP article in todays RFO , which basically says your stats are a waste of time , because over a season ,the expected goals for a teams matches will tend to the average goals in matches in that competition.Which means that teams are involved in high scoring matches in the first half of the season will trend away from their 'high  scores' , just as they are being highlighted as picks in systems and you are avoiding lower scoring teams , just as they are avoiding your radar.
Hope he is wrong for you GTFI

At the end of the day there are to many variables in a game of football. Whatever can happen will happen. You could spend your whole life studying stasticstics and the game still go against everything you thought would not happen.  Seen it too many times. The road to profits lie mostly not with the game but with how you control yourself mentally and your bank balance and unfortunately most people will never master that.

using offers is a sure fire winner,  agree,  like 365 do £50 pre and inplay.   back on one 365, lay on BF,  then split the difference for the same market,  ie,  one loses,  the other wins as cash back...blah blah ....
