Any reason for 1.1, if you stick to this it will be very hard to achieve 25 games.

Stevie, I have followed your posts today and it seems you want to make £1000 from £100 in next 20 days (from christmas).. now its not an impossible task but i feel you are betting on too many games..

also i guess you will be looking at "1 goal or more" market with all-in every bet to reach your target.. again something that i think is very risky as there is no way to hedge against loss on such market due to short odds...

I will recommend this bet for bigger return and less risk..

Take Everton vs. Tottenham tomorrow. now the chances of this game ending 0-0 is low and also i expect both teams to score... i also expect the game to end over 2.5 ...

So, you can do the following bets

£81 on over 2.5 @ 1.94
£5 on 0-1 CS @ 10
£3 on 0-2 CS @ 16
£4 on 1-0 CS @ 12.5
£7 on 1-1 CS @ 7.4

This way you have a potential profit of £55 and a loss of -£55 as long as its not 0-0 or 2-0.... if it ends 0-0 or 2-0, you lose £100..

if you dont fancy overs then you can do reverse and returns are even better

If you do the same as 1 goal or more on this game, you get a return of only £7 and the risk of 0-0 is still there....

Think about it.. betfair gives you the oppurtunity to hedge your risks and having a single bet (all-in) sounds like great adventure but can end in tears when you bet £900 on 1.1 to win £90 ...

the everton spurs game was an example... historically this game has ended unders... so overs may not be a good bet .. read form and make your mind up...

Good luck with your attempt and hopefully you reach your target!

Cheers

You are setting yourself parameters that will restrict your betting, why? Doing this only cuts down your choices and could leave you feeling 'hemmed in' by your own rules.

thanks for the opinions guys, i will probably vary the odds instead of 1.1 to between 1.05 and 1.1,
jailer i see your point mate, the reason behind it is to try and keep disipline, maybe i could forget about the number of bets per rule and hopefully use this forum to keep the disipline?

varying the price will help, but it will still be hard, only about 1 in every 23 attempts reach 25 matches.

Good Luck

When: 07 Dec 09 14:03
why dont you lay over 4.5 goals....do the research on betfair stats....the best leagues ive found is the polish ,italian and greek leagues for under 3.5 or 4.5 you usually get around 1.15 and if your selective and do your research you can build up a decent amount pretty quick....i average aabout 150-200 a week doing it along with the odd horse to be placed and laying 9 corners....

Why don't you try bet against 0-0 streaks, or Over 4,5 streaks.
I'm using Bet Record Streaks software, there you can find all kinds of streaks based on over 30 types of bets, also special statistics available.

Maybe you should consider laying other correct scores, try to place multiple lay on correct scores, that's available on weekend games. You can easily place 5 multiples with 8 games on each with total odds @ 1,7 - 2,0 with very good chance to win.

Tomorrow and Wednesday you can also try Laying (correct score) multiples on Champions league
