I understand I am turning in to a bit of a laughing stock here at the minute, blowing all previos threads. This time though, I shalln't get carried away. Will stick to 2% for sure with a starting bank of £100.00 Hopefully this time I will be a lot more succesful.

so as you can see, I am attempting the full year challenge.
I believe this time I will be successful. Mainly down to the fact that this time the majority of my bets will be trading rather than pre kick off bets. Thank ou for everybody that have supported me in previous threads and I hope you can continue the support in here.

Thank you for the good wishes mate.
I think that was my main downfall in previous threads, being forced to stake to much due to 10 and 5% being quite high. This time I will be doing my best with as low stakes as possible.

Dont know some of these foreign leagues mate and noticed lads on c/s lays thread mentioned it so have just backed
over 1.5.
Glad to see you on the 2% margin now,sorry to see you have a difficult afternoon.
For 2% i tend to involve more place bets on the horses,show me an email adress if you would like a few ideas
for that type of bet,1or 2 of these a day is all you need for your 2% bank and then have a seperate bank for the fun bets as too many bets will destroy a good thread.

hi freestyle,

Good luck with this.

I've been trying to do something similar. There are a few pitfalls I've found.

The first is getting a few losing days in succession, which is something that will happen to even the shrewdest of punters. When that happens your bank will fall far behind your target for that stage. If you aren't careful, you'll get all the downsides of a martingale, and you'll have an unrealistic target for each day.

I'd suggest you set a limit (in terms of %age of your bank on that day) for what you are prepared to risk for that day.

I'm a bit worried by the daily target thing, anyway. By a daily target do you mean a target for every day, or for every day on which you have a bet? Over the past few days there have been plenty of games to bet on but there won't be so many such days in the near future. If you aren't careful you'll end up betting on things that you otherwise wouldn't bet on, when you'd be better having no activity.

Anyway, I'll follow it with interest. Good luck again.

Muntz.
Sorry to but in but you are right with that reservation,if there is no bet then wait for another day.
It just takes longer to reach the target but i am sure it will be achieved in less bets as you wont have to make up for the losers.
There are very few good bets left at this stage of the season and another sport has to be reliant should you want to bet all year round imo.
Having said that it must be a sport you trust your judgement in and feel you are as comfortable in placing your money.

Free,you have email.
