greening means u do not need an opinion on the outcome of an event........

who cares what wins....

easier to predict the betting public rather than sport outcomes

make a few plays in the morning press the green button around 2pm simple

Alex, I had trouble getting set up on live, but I'll get on it. The arb has now gone in anycase, but I'll still run it by you.

greening is addictive imo

when i first started i never used to and just took the rough with the smooth. then one fateful day the team i'd backed were a goal up but under the cosh and i needed to go out for a bit. i greened out so i wouldn't be wondering how i did while out and the relief i felt was like nothing i've ever experienced. after that i couldn't stop and started greening up more and more. nowadays i green out almost asap, no matter the value. i can't stop. green all is all i think about, it's in my head, my dreams.

green, green, green.

be warned kids once you start greening you can't stop :(

What about the redding up though and accepting a loss when things don't look like they are going your way?

imo if you green you should red too. Exceptions would of course be if you had bet on something that was a long price and can comfortably green out whilst making a healthy profit in relation to the risk undertaken.

If you gree, Dave, I agree with that.

If you don't I think you should have more on at those enhanced prices.

I found myself unable to red out. I just couldn't bring myself to do it. This was following times where I had greened and obviously ended up with less than I would have made had I sat the event out.

Taking only part of the upside whilst standing the whole downside doesn't stack up too well for long term profitability so I stopped greening and am all the happier for it.
