What would be the best system or bet to get a nice little steady flow of Dosh.
Would it be a 50/50 bet keep doubling your stake till the win.
But on what, odd even Goals, wait till the price is evens on a market then back or lay.
Any ideas Lads.
Cheers Tone

Wait for a high liquidity football match to have 4 goals in 5 minutes then back unders heavily.

Tontone, I once read a comment from a chap on here who'd had 56, losers in a row. Doubling up everytime you'd have been into milions maybe even billions of pounds before you'd found a winner

Personal opinion

Horseracing very difficult to win on

Football is pretty officient too

greyhound racing....playing bingo with dog numbers

Tennis..... A lot of shruddies! There are some suggestions some people are able to gain an unfair advantage when placing bets in play.

Snooker....many of the matches don't have much liquidity.

Golf.....maybe your best chance to make a profit, trade in and out of positions during the four day duration.

Pricewize.....many of his supporters confur god like status to him, does he make a profit? I dont know, but  you could trade his selections anyway, if you can get on with the bookies at the best prices, (perhaps impossible to achieve this long term)

Arbitrage....probably a lot of people doing it and the profit on each bet could be miniscule. Maybe limited opportunities.

good post no moves.

trading pricewise is unwise, I have tried a few times, always catch a cold with at least one of them on a Saturday, yesterday prime example, one of his selections drifted like a barge and with a few non runners, made it impossible.

Well, you're on the right lines, but much better would be a logarithmic Martingale system. The choice of exponent is partly down to you, but I would favour something between 5 and 10.

Get a bucket and a sponge, fill it with soapy water (the bucket not the sponge) head down to a busy set of traffic lights and start washing windscreens (when the lights are red not green).  A gimmick like a David Beckham or Simon Cowell mask may help boost profits

it's hard work, but yes it can be done.  Be realistic about likely profits, it's all to easy to believe you're going to get 16-1 winners every day. you're not.


Slow and steady growth is the way to go.
