Although I have to say using martingale for 1/3 or 1/4 shots I certainly wouldn't be doing it with horses ..... better doing it on an event with only two outcomes like Tennis / Darts / Snooker / DNB football / DC football / Basketball / Rugby but not horses !!

I am doing my thread on GB forum with 1/2 shots ....

mate, you are making it very very boring to follow .... you need to put up proper descriptions of your bets, times and stakes oh and winnings. You need to to a table of results. By what I have read so far I have absolutley no idea what you are doing .....

You can write things in the same amount of time that you have already been doing it in ... the table for results will be just using copy and paste, doesn't take long

i got myself in a muddle, with calculations not as accurate as they should have been as you can see from the aim and stakes but it basically righted itself in the end - dunno if i can take the maths stress - will see how many selections i end up with tomorrow
By:

When: 10 Mar 10 13:22
il try to keep it neater today -if my stake doesnt meet the 'aim' it is because i have doubts about the selection(and not disciplined enough to leave it ) or because the price is not worth the risk.

Before I joined betfair I used to do a 4 time doubling up system, stopping at a winner or going all 4 reps then starting again.
Thinking of going back to it as over a year it always showed a profit.

the aim is to make £1 per bet retrieving losses using the martingale system if i fancy the horse or price enough for me to justify the chase - if not i just place a smaller bet to try and get the 'aim' lower with raising the 'aim' too much if it loses - i hope thats clear ... i have £300 set aside for this and am trying to double it in 2 weeks assuming i can place approx 300 bets in this time and i can end on a winner.
