*i meant i could of easily said points instead of £s its all relative to your bank u can afford to lose and ive shown 17% point profit in a day if i had a £1000 bank that would be £170 profit.  Point of this is not how much i win but to show myself i can be disciplined and stick to a bank with a staking plan win or lose.

Yep agreed with above post - however the real test of your discipline starts when you begin having losers. All the best with your thread.

Thanks undern i will guarenteed have many losers just hope to have some fun along the way :)

slow n steady wins the race :)

whats your first target £1000, understand your using thread as a  way     of obtaining disciplin.

goodluck

ive not got a target per say it would be nice to double my money but im hopefully in this for the long term just wanna see what i can achieve whilst keeping a written record to help keep me disciplined.  I dont even think im a good punter but hey hoh fingers crossed lets see what happens.

no more bets till saturday now im researching the scottish premier games will post closer to saturday.

You'll double at around 14 bets +- if 100%.

GL

Fingers crossed shapeshifter im never going lower than 1.5 but ideally want closer to evens or better for my bets.  Not much on offer till season kicks off proper just looking into scots premier league this weekend.

get in 1-0 BARCA, i wanted to back barca but the fact that this is effectively a freindly cup decided to keep draw on my side as well.

3 good choices all you got to show for it it £17. BAD

Totally disagree with that.

The mentality of having 40% of bank on every bet would have of course seen him win much more on Saturday but it would also see him wiped out on a bad day.

thanks tobermory,

I was influenced by watching chris ferguson, hes a poker player and was talking about bankroll management so i thought id try and apply this concept to football betting and see how i do.

2-0 BARCA, should be safe now

tobermory, who would of had nearly £700 went all in on those first 3 bets. and his 1st bet, bet celtic to win to nil,tells you that he fancied them strongly. increase of stakes would of been appropriate. his got a plan. no problem with his methods.wish him all best

All opinions welcome, this next bet will likely be my 1st loser but i dont feel that in a freindly away from home man utd should be this short to be leading at half time. I watched them play last week against an american team and in the 1st half utd didnt even get started plus you gotta question there motivation even though in the 2nd half utd battered them.  So im laying them to be winning tonight at HT.

man u were 2 nil up at half time??? or have i read this wrong?

Ah my 1st loser, no regrets though what with that game being a freindly and motivation questionable id rather lay than back but maybe for future games i will swerve freindlies and cups.

Also thanks freddie heres a little video about bank roll management by chris ferguson there are more on youtube but this give a quick snippet of what its all about.  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fvscGfvE49s 

Its all about playing with what you can afford whatever amount that may be and never risking more than say 5% of my roll at any time.

Reason For bet:
Inverness have won three of their last four home games
Hibernian have kept just one clean sheet in their last 12 league matches
Hibernian lost 13 out of 19 away games last season Also showed nothing vs celtic last week.
Inverness did lost last week vs motherwell AWAY last week but they are stronger at home.

Well lost again but if this game was easy id be drinking cocktails on a beach instead of spending all week asking people to "turn it off and on again"  Looking forward to the "real season" starting as im eager to try a little form system ive been working on - No doubt i will still lose lol :)

WOO 14p profit in a week.

Ok championship football continues tonight with one of my favourate managers mr "at leaset we got her in the taxi" Hollaway, kinda reminds of that crazy cheeky teacher at school anyway i digress.  Im stuck between a few bets tonight

1. laying blackpool i beleive they have a 30.5% chance of winning away so i think they should be nearer to 4.00 than 3.5 so i think theres value in laying them away from home here plus this year they have yet to win away from home.

2. Backing both teams to score @ 1.8 This has happend 4 out of the last 5 meetings

3. Backing over 2.5 @ 2.04 This has also happend in 4 out the last 5 meetings

I think all 3 are good bets need to have a think id like to bet on them all.
