I have been using BF for some time now and feel i have got my staking / profits just about spot on. However, i read lots of tips etc on here and i think most of it is actually bad advice, and most people are just out and out gamblers. In an attempt to seek out the serious amongst you, (i know what it should be) what do you think you should be looking for % profit on each bet placed? After reading replies (assuming i get any) i would like to link up with those i consider to be of quality.

My ex mrs was very serious.

celtic, not sure if people would be bothered with this to be honest, but good luck in your search.

My answer 1%, but I'm not interested.

Yes.  Celtic, you could do worse than starting to listen to people that agree with Delta and ignore those that attempt to give you a percentage.

You should be betting every time you think you'll make a long term profit.

If you only bet when you have a 5% edge then you're missing opportunities, that's why people who claim to have huge % profits are nearly all scammers or idiots, or often both.
