Mmmm having dumped a lot of cash over the weekend (mainly horse racing) I thought I might take a break from things and start a challenge which I did with £1K but with some exciting times ended up lumping and losing it all .... but wait there is more ....

I am going to give it another go ... this time start with £2.5K bank and again the rules are bet on anything, at anytime and for any amount. Oh and above all I don't want anyone else telling me what to do (as I believe it is still my money - well until I lose it all again ....) ....

Hey Undern,best of luck with your challenge

If u don't mind me asking,have u much knowledge of australian racing??The overrounds aren't bad but liquidity is low,any idea what percentage of favs generally win??

Report undern • July 18, 2012 8:09 AM BST

Hey dj876 - thanks for the wishes. For Aussie racing I mainly look at a few key stats which I won't go in to.

As for % favs winning - funny enough they always win when you don't want them to and lose when you do ... probably best to pop over to the Aussie experts on the Aussie section of the forum ...

Back from Lunch and a bit of work ...

After a coffee quickly decided I have better things to do than stay on here going up and down like a yo-yo .... I will let my greyhound system bot do those particualar lays and leave it at that ... - and yes it does have odd limits and proper staking place unlike me !

Hereby finish this challenge with closing bank of £2232.58 (to be exact) .... loss on this occasion of £267 so not too bad ... well okay then could have been better.

Pity but hey these things happen ...

No actually I didn't .... but don't worry MadDogs I can quite easily afford it and more ....

... now if it was high 5figures then I might have to start selling a few shares

Fun, seat of your pants thread undern. I'm sure you realise you're unlikely to make money betting this manically but it makes a good read. Hope the botting is still working for you.

Report undern • July 19, 2012 12:08 PM BST

Catflmasppo - you have hit the nail on the head. I am quite settled 'in real life' with a self-run business, investment portfolio and a few nice things etc that I am here simply to have some fun and while I would like to win ... I enjoy more the thrill of being on the 'seat of my pants' .... the only sensible thing is this Greyhound BOT but it is limited by the volume in the markets ...

all the best to one and all with their betting - especially Nevada2012 (aka Paulol, Paulme and the rest) ....

Surely calling undern a 'horrible arrogant ignorant cretin' would fly in the face of that statement above Bob?
