Simple rules:
Rule 1:  2 banks of 100$ each!
Rule 2:  Betting the entire bank in each bet!
Rule 3:  Possible splitting of bank in the future!


Simple notes:
Note 1:  Noone should follow this thread!
Note 2:  It helps me have a risky, but controlled amount of betting every now and then, in order to be disclipined in my main bank!
Note 3:  Let's hope it will not end today!

ALGERIA are in World Cup ......and ROI ain't!


They are no mugs.......and suspect ROI will struggle to beat them ...but GL GE.


Some of their results indicate they are no mugs -

WD on bet ...but 100% bank bet ( or 50%) on odds on bet in friendly is a dodgy approach to betting.......

1st goal was offside ....and ROI were flattered 1st half with a lead.

ALGERIA were bad in the air....ROI won almost every challenge in mddle of park....and never created much.....looks like their coach is trying to lull ENGLAND into sense of false security.....

Yeah, ofcourse it's a dangerous way of betting! It's just for entairtenment every few months or so!

And I believe that soccer game was great value. Ireland isn't so bad, they deserved to get in World Cup and had a great game against Paraguay. Algeria isn't so stable and had some players missing too.

Why level staking on the two bets....surely one bet is better than the other? Or is it?
By:

When: 28 May 10 23:03
Ofcourse the chances of getting the 1,27 bet right are higher, but there is still a possibility for it to fail and I don't want this run to finish so early!

Just testing whether you have considered evaluating the "true odds" ( a subjective view) for each match and betting according to where the more VALUE is etc......

Generally LEVEL STAKES betting is an inefficient way to bet IMO....and as you are using fairly large amounts to BACK .


At the odds you are backing at you are very likely to be wiped out eventually anyway......may take about 20 bets....BUT GL anyway....

why do you say that dfc and what do you think is better?
By:

If say you have an 11s BFSP horse which is really a 4s BFSP horse and you say stake £100 to win on it......and it wins.....the EXTRA VALUE on that horse is say 7 points, keeping it "simple".

If you have a 5s BF SP horse that is really an 4s BF money bet, the EXTRA value is 1 point......


So STAKING £100 on each bet gives £1,000 profit on first one...and £400 profit.

Now when you have an "edge"........should you STAKE the same amount on both horses? Is it not a wee bit "crazy"?

Of course if you are purely "guessing".......then LEVEL STAKING makes some sense.......
========================================================

Both horses have same REAL CHANCE to win...4sBF odds......but one gives 6 EXTRA POINTS in value............is it efficient to bet LEVEL STAKES on both horses?

There is only 1 answer......Cool

DFC, the think you are talking about works very well in normal stakes betting.
6 value bet would be 7-10/10 bet size
1 value bet would be 1-5/10 bet size
No bet should surprass 5% of your total bank

With some right value bet choices, this is the way to make some money long-term! :)

But as this a side-bank for fun/dangerous betting...

By the way, this game is going to be a main bank bet for me too.

Chile (-1,5 AH) - 7/10 medium/high stakes

Chile, having home advantage, is playing with a strong squad, while N.Ireland is bringing a weak, inexperienced team overseas for the game. It should be an easy win for them!
