I prefer using level stakes nowdays which is fine when I'm betting odds on shots all the time but I occassionaly back the odd outsider too and don't think I should be staking the same on these.

Does anyone have a decent points staking strategy based on the odds ranges and confidence in the bets?

Thanks

Bet to return 100 units, backing or laying,
for instance an 1/1 chance 50 units, a 6/4
chance 40 units, a 3/1 chance 25 points, 9/1
poke 10 units and so on. Laying, the stake would be
reversed but always the return 100 points. Hope I have
explained that clearly.

The most profitable staking method is to use Kelly.

Not if you don't have (or overestimate) an edge
