EG Horse A £100 @ 4/5 Loses -£100 Horse B £135 @ 4/5 Loses -£100(£235) Horse C £265 @ 4/5 Loses -£265(£500) Loss £500 accepted and written off. No chasing following this losing spell. Bank can withstand 2 losing spells as above to start with. If bank increases & can withstand 3 Losing spells as above then stakes increase by 10% Each time the bank increases to withstand another 3 loser spell stakes increase by 10%
Most Selections will probably be odds on but rarely less than 1.5(1/2).
Nothing new in the thread regarding selecting winners, but simple discipline will hopefully win out. Feel confident I can select enough winners to win overall.(Famous last words)
Target Not to lose bank. Increase the bank enough to withstand an extra losing spell each month.
HEAVY going .....and there are five 5 yods , with some of them lightly raced against it plus a few 6 yods that have some breeding that indicates they might take to going.........Is the ODDS on bet attractive in such circumstances?
Looks an open race.......GL with bet ....hope it wins as I have layed PANDA BEAR!!!!

A month is fairly easy and if you have an edge, and understand it, longer term is easy. I must admit, in the past when i've had an edge, and that edge has gone, i've perservered with it longer than is feasible. Most peoples idea of lacking discipline is, from what i've seen and read on here, is have a few losers then lump the remainder of their account on the next short price that they think will win! That is compulsive betting and having an ego that can't accept being incorrect is part and parcel of the game.

Good luck and well done with getting your first bet up. Maybe the disciplined approach could extend to waiting for a full show or a 100% book before taking a price, rather than 104% in a 4runner race

I dont usually contribute to these threads but I'm going to put in my t**ence worth here having now read your staking plan which is doomed to failure. Presumably you are using a recovery method because you find it painful to accept 1 or 2 losses in a row. Yet this method asks you to then cheerfully accept 3 losses, then set about getting 7 straight wins before recovering your loss. Thats really too much to ask of anyone. On the selection method, its comforting to back short price horses and if you want to do that for fun and accept the loss of your commission then thats fine. The only way it can be done profitably is if you are genuinely identifying a strong selection against a market rival with genuine weaknesses. Is that what you're doing? The only other way forward for profit is if the market genuinely gets the price wrong for your horse, and that usually only becomes significant in the last 5 minutes of trading. You dont owe anything to anyone here by carrying on in the way you've set about above so am suggesting you reconsider. Good luck whichever

Starfish. You are probably right regarding myself and finding it tough to accept a loss.The recovery plan gives me an option after the loss rather than going with Buzzers Quote" of lumping the whole bank on some hot pot " I am not perfect in this respect and have had my failings, This way gives me a couple of days to think about whats happening and not to lose control. I will get it wrong from time to time and will most likely get it right also.But am trying to think over the long term. See how I get on in march,May be bust by the end,May have a little profit. Fingers crossed.
Thanks to all for their input.

In my own opinion the worrying think with this idea is the short nature of the odds, and the amount of time it will therefore take to recover one losing "sequence" as you call it.
Maybe you could consider looking at horses that are more around the 3.0 mark, then you could have your stakes set as below:
Bet 1 : £100 Bet 2 : £150 Bet 3 : £225
That way you would make £200 profit from every winning cycle as i prefer to call them, and you will lose £475 per losing cycle.
Anyway just an idea....

ah yes of course, well factoring in commision and also that some bets will be above 3.00 you will still be looking at around the £200 mark profit per winning cycle.

I will be right sometimes,and hopefully more often than wrong. For me A winner is a winner. I think I understand how you play, I may be wrong,and each persons view/system/angle is respected as all will have a golden day/week/year. Now, over the long term if you can continue to select value you should do alright. If you get 33/1 about a 7/1 all is well if it wins If you get 7/1 about a 33/1 and it loses you are no worse off than the previous bet if both lose. Over time if you manage to continue selecting exceptional value you will win on average as a 7/1 will win once every 7 races(not strictly true but hope you get my drift).and if you are getting 8/1 or better happy days for you. For me I dont seem to be able to select exceptional value all the time. I am working with the tools available to me. I have tried various angles before and this is just another one. As its been said on the thread that accepting a loss can be very hard for some. For me that is very much so. I am a normal person (in most respects) and am trying to delay the tilt that comes with these. I know most of the maths experts like yourself wont agree that a 4/6 winner is better than a 8/1 second that should be 4/1. But for me i am quite happy to accept the returns of a 4/6.
Regarding the overround book etc, if I back at 4/6 when the book is over, surely its not always me that is wrong. Perhaps the other horses in the race are underpriced. I will keep an eye on the returns for the moment with regard to comparing them to SP and BSP. It will make interesting reading at the end of the month (assuming I'm not bust by then)
Thanks Starfish

Thanks very much for your reply Georgie. You're right and i disagreed very much with the suggestion that you should start trying to get 3.0 shots. I dont think you should be looking for high odds 'value' bets and never suggested that. You seem very good in your comfort zone of oddson selections So much so that you should be fine at level stakes and SP! Please dont go trying to chase when you hit a loser, you dont need to! And dont try to get value at 9pm cos there aint none! Continued good luck and success whichever.

I prefer not to back at odds on. If there is an odds on fancy then sometimes ask for odds against price in running under "keep" bets.
I watched Massinis race - only out of interest as you selected it. I certainly traded at 2.26 because I backed in running at that price, but may have gone higher.
If the bet doesn't get taken then you don't lose. In most NH races you will get evens or more about an odds on chance.

Pinza If you dont get matched you dont lose but dont win either If the horse loses you will be matche at that price. The first selection action impact was matched @10 in running so it can work in your favour. I can only imagine getting matched @ 10 about an odds on is when the fast pic boys reckon something is not right a few seconds before the backer sees it.Whatever it is they expected doesnt transpire and happy days for ther backer.Dont know if I could handle betting that way.

(You knew this was coming..) There was a poster on this forum this year who showed its possible to make decent profits from odds-on shots at level stakes. He who shall not be named turned out to have as much self-respect as a bowl of jelly, but he was a master of using a well-worn cliche to reinforce the need for discipline and self-preservation. Two of them were 'don't be afraid to take a loss' and 'dont cut off your nose to spite your face. Really want to see this thread in April and at this rate it simply will not regardless of this one result. Betting 300% more on a horse with a 10% less chance : does that sound right? Remember the title of this thread! Please get out of the balance of your bet! good luck with Better Times

I am posting this prior to the race, and my view was (Very wrong now) the selection would be more likely to go off @1.80 than what it will. hence the £300 stake was to recover the £235 loss. Too busy this morning to monitor the market.
Starfish. I am only doing what I said I would, I will be wrong sometimes and looks likely today may be one of them. To take a loss is as honourable if not more than to hold out for a profit and suffer a loss. But at the moment nothing has changed on my view in the race other than the extra bit of comfort we get when we see money coming for our selection.
Cheers lads

Spot on Starfish. It is hard to accept the loss but long term discipine is whats needed.This morning I would love to have another go at recovery but would make the thread pointless assumimg there is any point to the thread already.Times like this I need to justify my betting.I have had 3 days(losers) in which to think about it.
Now as your friend (the Voices I think you mean who now wants money for his tips) says there is no shame in taking a loss. My time is now and as I said on post one of the the thread now is when I take it. Surely that is more honourable than to take it yesterday.IF I took it yesterday and the selection won,things like that can play havoc with ones mindset.The Thread rules are set for the month of March (if it lasts that long) following this I will analyse the results and see what comes up.If i see something better or clearer I will adapt the rules to suit,but at a pedestrian pace,no rushing to the quick buck,as it wont be there when you arrive.

Maybe the way to treat these 3 losses is they could have been your first 3 bets, in which case at level stakes you would have 700, but you have 729. So i hope you can just carry on finding the winners again, hope it can be level stakes and betfair SP. It takes some backbone to do what you're doing here and accepting any comeback honestly and in good faith. Thats why you've got my support and i presume some others.

DISCIPLINE is the hardest thing to do for losing punters.
Because they lose, they lose the plot with their staking trying to win it back cos they dont believe that their methods are going to win it back anyway.
Once you start becoming a winning punter in the long run, discipline is easy.

BG - Surely by now you see that this "way" of betting ....just does not work.
As you are systematically increasing stakes BASED ON LOSSES SUSTAINED, and not on the "value" of the bet, then the bank WILL be wiped out.
You have staked a huge chunk of your remaining bank on a -
1. BEGINNER'S CHASE. 2. A 3 runner race where the other 2 runners appear to have a chance to win, and are older horses. 3. On a horse that has only ran in a CHASE once before on going that was softish and was 2nd .......how will it react to FASTER going today over FENCES? 4. At odds that are "odds on".....just!
Is a BEGINNER'S CHASE such a strong race type to "risk" such a huge amount of bank on SYSTEMATICALLY ....without any "thought" as to "value" it appears?
The horse may well win.........but the odds are far too short to "risk" the percentage of remaining bank left IMO!
Surely you should re-think what you are doing BEFORE BANK WIPED OUT!
BG - Surely by now you see that this "way" of betting ....just does not work.As you are systematically increasing stakes BASED ON LOSSES SUSTAINED, and not on the "value" of the bet, then the bank WILL be wiped out.You have staked a huge chunk of you
Of course if you consider the horse has a better probability to win than 66.67%, the STAKING wouldbe higher..........but is a BEGINNER'S CHASE with 3 runners ( probably not ran like a race where more runners etc ) really a better probability for your selection????
Anyway .....at least using KELLY STAKE CALCULATOR would be far better way for you to determine stake size ....as you are having to use your brain rather than staking AUTOMATICALLY based on previous losses......

dont know how to explain this (i am not very good at english :D) but try think it this way: when you are increasing your stakes, you are not recovering, you are just BETTING WITH BIGGER STAKE, it means bigger percentage of your bankroll, it means you just LOOSING FASTER. you have to have VALIUE on you pick (take price bigger than there is chance event happening) if you want be in profit over long time. no one recovering strategy in der world will save your ass if you dont have valiue its boring truth, but it is truth, and life will hit you again and again, till you understand it or till you go broke and live under bridge :D

alas the end is nigh. Cant believe how poorly some of the selections ran. Though my selection process needs a bit of work.I gave it a go and as there is no point in prolonging the agony I am having the remainder on 2 selections at cheltenham.either wins will get me my bank back. Both lose and i will slip away to a dusty corner for a bit and think long and hard about my next assault. The thread is dead and regardless if these win today the initial system did not work . Thanks to all for the input.

I really hope that you get a winner today BG,I think your system is obviously wrong.But I dont think that you are.I kind of think that if you give your next attempt a different approach you would have a great chance. You seem really calm & controlled etc.Which in theory must be a good thing.I would have thought that you would be quite good at a challenge like for example Johnnywad.Whatever way your challenge had gone.I dont suppose that it was going to make you rich. If you started with lets say £250-00 & tried his sort of approach.I think that you could definately do it. It's really sad that you didn't do it,because you were very well thought of on here & I'm sure that alot of folks on here were rooting for you.I for one used to check your thread with my fingers crossed every day.You didn't really attract the snipers which normally love to jump on you when things dont work out. Anyway good luck today & dont let the b*ggers get you down.
