Ref: 10699572809 Bet matched: 11:33 20-Apr-10

Robert now 4-0 down in the final set - should rename this thread how to lose your money in a day

I always find tennis a tough place to find profit. Things seem to turn so dramatically and so quickly. Think you need to take a profit when you can, no matter how small, and never go back in on a game when you have missed a price as it has a nasty habbit of swinging back past.

Good news is Traver neat Monaco but bad news is Robert lost - net effect Loss of £9.12 so bank now £83.97

I was on Monaco at 1.35, but took the profit when it went down towards 1.2. Then had a bit on Traver at 3.5, thought that was a good thing until the 2nd set wobble, but fair play to him coming back again.

Just can't believe Robert got turned over by istomin especially after the 2nd set - should have traded out after 3mins at 1.29 - but thats life

Whats your plan on the horses? You a backer or a layer?

Both

I normally bet for bigger stakes but thought I'd give it a go posting my bets (always a bad idea) so i'd keep bets low.

Was looking for an angle in the Chardy match

Can't really help with the chardy match. Tennis never really been my forte. Got lucky in that one really just now.

Excellent effort, Paddy! Still time for the Saints to give you a nice finish.... :)

Well it was a profit but not double and £18.90 was down to a suggested bet from a third party . thanks I quit my job.

Will try again soon

O.K. Paddy you didn't double your bank but great try nevertheless and 43% up on the day.

Most of us would settle for that quite happily!

...maybe it's just going to take 2 days to do it.

:-) quite fun to read and hard work LOL

Thanks for the comments guys - Roger not going to try that again in a hurry too much like hard work - I'm happy with a 43% increase

good effort Paddy, well done, if your continued your progress with just the daily percentage increase that you have had today then you would have over a million quid in less than a month .... providing there was enough liquidity for your bets obviously! :-)

gl

Johnny - good point, however I think the liquidity problem would be a BIG issue after 21 days - however I am now tempted to continue with that little carrot dangled in front of me - might start a new thread £100 to a million in under a month - would get an unbelievable amount of stick for that !!!

Yeah, lets see the £100 - £1mil thread, just to pizz off that Getting Bettor peon, if nothing else.

Would love to Wedged but don't really have the time - run my own business and have to go out and do a bit of selling, always around Tues & Wed as look after my little girl these two days, rest of the week I'm in and out and always try and spend the weekend with family (when not out working)

Understandable Paddy!

Although you could just take 3.5 months instead? ;)

Enjoy your day.

I did better today - have to take daughter to park as the weather is too good
