Watch till half time, at that point decide what you
think will happen, then bet against your view being
correct. Think about it, and you may see the logic
as more than 90% of punters on here lose, so you
need to bet against the crowd. GL.

bet on teams near top of table because they
win more often, especially at crucial periods
through the season.

as they are far shorter prices you'd expect them to win more often, don't see how it helps you win more money though

The first step is to find obvious ways to make money. Build from there.

Kenilworth they lose because they are getting crushed by commission or just staking destructively, not because they back 'obvious' choices.

Please define ''staking destructively''

Kenil, have a read of Crows other thread about Martingale for the perfect example of staking destructively.

I have no doubt that he is an expert on the subject Wink

what about the arsenal game, 1.47 to win that game at 1-1, free money
looking back at what happened last time at the emirates last year.

so previous head 2 heads are key to an outcome, would that be the 1st place to look !

sjones, head to heads are meaningless IMO.

Best bets ? Back ManU, lay QPR.

so best way forward is to bet Man Utd, Real Madrid, Barcelona etc and lay poor teams ??
