Seems to be about break even.

But you are probably right that the odds on are poor value as you are break even , slightly up, after commission.

The Backers of these teams must be losing badly.

Yes, it all seems like a much of a muchness, odds being close to the truth in the long term. When divs 1,2,3 finish gonna add up the numbers and put them in the final post.

The only thing I think I'll end up showing is how a silly little figure of 5% comm. long term is a killer. And I'd guess that most people think 5% off a winning bet...well it's nothing is it? Laugh

Happy

Yeah , in most of the system/challenge threads on here people don't even bother to include it, but it is the biggest factor in winning or losing on here.

My Betfair Accounts are about £250 down over 3 years, would be thousands ahead without comm.

That was the last day of the regular season.
Laying odds on for £100 liabilities gave you....
Weekdays +£126, 136 matches
Weekends +£90, 79 matches

This is taking commision off.

So weekdays wasn't any different from weekends.

Lumping them together..

English stuff lower than the prem, +£216 off 215 matches.

You had 93 winning bets off these and paid commission of £5 per bet, ie you have paid £465

So you are up +£216 and paid +£465. Beating commission takes some doing.
