Hi folks
I have messed about a bit on Betfair and understand the basic principle of how to build a bank up over the long term.
I'm just after some advise on a good footy system to get started with.
Have been reading some threads that suggest the "laying the draw" method is as good a system as any other?
Can anyone, who has been successful give me any tips on a good system to get started with?
Many thanks

I think you'll find that laying the draw is NOT perceived as a good system.

So Video, how much profit do you hope to earn over the course of 1 year?
|
|
By:
only strarted it this year...started with small stakes as you can see..
my lays are now for £8, small acorns and all that. |
|
By:
Absolutely Video. So I take it your system is based on the fact that there are more home wins than away over a season so therefore your win ratio will outnumber the loses and therefore give you a profit?
Do you bet in play with this system? |

Oh deary me. This forum.

thats certainly Less Rod............better than losing.
Should stand you in good stead when stakes creep up. |

By:
cheers, we will see how it gets on and if it all goes bust then its only 150. seems to good to be true though as i have back checked this for 1000's of matches and from what it seems it cannot lose long term.
