Well done Undern. Two smooth days there. Great to see somebody slugging it to those greyhounds!  As long as you don't overstake, you'll be nicely up there in no time.

Yep, WD Undern,
Very good day on the greyhounds, it might be 'boring' as you hinted at the other day, when talking about regimented staking plans, but it can be very effective, and you will, i guarantee it, take enjoyment from winning bets steadily and you will take pride in it, much more than you would by overstaking and entering many many markets.

All the best

LB, yes ... but I would need BSP also if possible
By:
LordBobbbin
When: 20 Sep 11 23:59
Ah. I wouldn't imagine anywhere does that. Timeform has the BSPs on for horses because it's owned by Betfair and they're trying to push people into using their exchange. However, even on Betfair's own greyhound form guides (which I'd imagine are simply reprints of the official information) the BSPs aren't noted.

If you don't mind trawling through the data, remember that Betfair let you download all the exchange data. I'm pretty sure that'll have the last traded price, and since I don't think the dogs are in-play, the last traded price will essentially give you the BSP.    http://data.betfair.com/

It can be done!!

Just passed £100k for the first time ever on Betfair!
Probably still only just about breaking even over the past 10 years or so but I'm fukin proud of myself.
Had my single biggest bet ever on man city to win at Fulham the other day so this is even allowing for a huge loss on that match as I wasn't around to lay off at 1.03 when city were 2 up!
The last 3 months I have made c£92k.

God this post would really piss me off if someone else posted it so for that i apologise!

When: 21 Sep 11 03:02
Well there are people on Betfair who make good sums of money. Possibly Benjack is one of them. If he now jumps up on every post bragging about how much he's made that day, I'll turn sceptical. But if he disappears from view again, I'll assume that up to now he's been keeping his head down and trading his way to a 100K by quietly making sound bets day in and out (which most certainly is possible!). Perhaps he's just temporarily popped up because he's pleased at having reached an important milestone and is keen to share the news with almost the only people on the planet who'll understand what an achievement that is. If that is the case and he promptly fades from view again, I'll be at a loss to explain what would have been in it for him to fabricate a tale about having made it to 100K.

Strangely Paul, some people around here are actually successful at betting, and don't have to rely on stupid chase bets on penalty shootouts.

Well done, benjack, hope you've made the transition from loser to winner.  I would suggest you analyse what you have done carefully before deciding how to continue because I guess you don't want to lose it all again.  The number of bets you have placed it quite crucial here in assessing whether you have a potential long term winning strategy or you've just hit a lucky run.

I can't seem to get my head around how you got so quickly from 2.5k to 10k and then since have been stuck around the 13k-10k mark?

Wouldn't it make sense to go back to the start and look at what markets got you to 10k?

It took me close to 4mths to get to around the £10K mark. When I set out to do this challenge I wanted do it betting on lots of markets and principally in my own way (pre event, inrunning, greening up etc) ....

Some of the big hits have been in the tennis - where I could say some bets went close (and not bad selections) at the end of the day they lost. F1 has also been not very productive. Greyhounds up until say yesterday wasn't very good either. More importantly it simply down to some key 'too large' bets which have slowed me up.

I am fully aware of what markets I am stronger at than others and I am currently addressing the staking, the markets I play and more importantly resisting the notion to lets just say 'lump on' every now and then.

There is always going to be some ups and downs and plateaus - I think from memory I had a very good run around 10 days. Not many people will remember but I actually had trouble breaking through the £8K mark .... where I hit it 3rd week in May and then did get near it for another month.

When: 21 Sep 11 10:33
You can see Sir_Bond every now and then I have had a big daily drop and that has been due to a couple over staked bets going wrong or having some losing bets and sensing I needed to chase to get back on track.

It is also a fine line between correct staking and over-staking .... now I personally vary it depending on a number of factors such as the market, how well the days gone, odds, etc.

But rather than have an absolute stake amount per bet I am trying to get used to staying within the 0.5% to 2.5% mark (of the current bank).

But it is always a learning curve ... like in that rugby bet on Japan in hindsight the bet should have been around the £50 to £75 mark not the £125. One thing I didn't consider when setting the bet amount was the odds for the bet.
