Hello everyone, this is my first post on Betfair.

Brilliant money making plan freestyle. Will be joining in from today.

Going with cloughandtaylor tip to lay united today. Think United will struggle.

Also going to bet on less than 3.5 goals.

How is everyone deciding stakes etc, sorry if missed these points.

Welcome to the thread Si,
Personally i tend to stake between 5/10% of bank for each bet as the daily target plus a little more now and again is my aim.
Rob,how are you mate and have you been betting.

I've taken 1-1 @4.5 and the idea is to back any further scores to recover losses and gain small profit. The thinking behind it is that I hope the scores stay low and the odds fairly high so I can keep doubling up.

Not ruled out trading a little though.

No chatname specified, enjoy the thread, but there's no need to talk sh1te about first post etc?

Best of luck on your best tonight boys!
Been looking at this. Betting on 1.3 shots starting with £20.00
Looks fairly comfortable if you're disciplined and carefully select the right bets.
Here's the table:

Stake Odds Gross Pay Profit Comm. Net Pay
£20.00 1.3 £26.00 £6.00 £0.30 £25.70
£25.70 1.3 £33.41 £7.71 £0.39 £33.02
£33.02 1.3 £42.93 £9.91 £0.50 £42.44
£42.44 1.3 £55.17 £12.73 £0.64 £54.53
£54.53 1.3 £70.89 £16.36 £0.82 £70.07
£70.07 1.3 £91.09 £21.02 £1.05 £90.04
£90.04 1.3 £117.06 £27.01 £1.35 £115.70
£115.70 1.3 £150.42 £34.71 £1.74 £148.68
£148.68 1.3 £193.29 £44.60 £2.23 £191.05
£191.05 1.3 £248.37 £57.32 £2.87 £245.51
£245.51 1.3 £319.16 £73.65 £3.68 £315.47
£315.47 1.3 £410.12 £94.64 £4.73 £405.38
£405.38 1.3 £527.00 £121.62 £6.08 £520.92
£520.92 1.3 £677.20 £156.28 £7.81 £669.38
£669.38 1.3 £870.20 £200.81 £10.04 £860.16
£860.16 1.3 £1,118.20 £258.05 £12.90 £1,105.30
£1,105.30 1.3 £1,436.89 £331.59 £16.58 £1,420.31
£1,420.31 1.3 £1,846.40 £426.09 £21.30 £1,825.10
£1,825.10 1.3 £2,372.63 £547.53 £27.38 £2,345.25
£2,345.25 1.3 £3,048.83 £703.58 £35.18 £3,013.65


That is based on paying 5% comm on each bet.
So after 15 bets would be up to 1k, and after 20 bets, your looking at £3,013.65 :D
May have a punt at it

I understand Rob, but it looks kinda quick in, quick out strategy, hoping to make a quick buck :D

Would like to talk to you on your tennis trading, I have a theory which on paper is making good profits!

Im looking to back the fave (or somebody im very confident on) just before there service game, then laying after they hold. Im looking at a small percentage profit each time, but gradually it does build. And there is a slight exit opportunity. If you are backing the fave, should they fail to hold, they will still have a relative amount of ability to break back later in the match to give you a chance to get out.
I'm looking at an average change of about 0.04/0.05 for each service game.
What do you think?

Worth a go for a daft £20 - but remember, you can be as careful as you like, very strage things happen in sport, very often. In fact so often, it's not actually that strange! ha

Stoke red card - does that mean they defend like mad and no attck, or City get through?
By:
ROB_D
When: 16 Feb 10 20:08
wedged is right tennis is an unpredictable sport mate theres plenty of games in tennis whwere the strong fav just doesnt try or turn up on the day
for example u see roger federer in an OPEN and hes a total different player to in a lower ranked tourney
players get hammered 6-0 then win the second 6-1 . womans tennis is best for trading far weaker on service games than male tennis players maybe lay server and back back off if doesnt win first point as a starter if thts what percentage ur loooking for
and rememeber best to watch first as they might never give away this

A goal to break the draw in the Stoke game, but it's Stoke - so that's in a dangerous position.

under 3.5 man u game lost, under 4.5 precarious! :|

Now in on 1-3 on correct score, large bet for small profit :|

Horse racing profit may well be blown tonight...
