Some (well okay I) will be pleased to know that I am still around betting away .... simply to try and get in a better position in this challenge to continue .... lets just say I am having a fun time .... although earlier today lost (after winning some nice bets) around £1.8K in a single race (don't ask) but have finally clawed that back ... so betting a bit easier again. Actually it was a bit like yesterday ... did nicely and then lost most of the profits on some USA racing I shouldn't have bothered with .... got to cut out this over the top bets.
Will update one of these days .... and will break it down and post up all the bets per day (I will cut the report off at midnight each date) so it keeps within the spirit of the challenge .... |

Also one thing ... especially with the horse racing is to stick with the specific tactics I use and not bend the rules or go outside of these simply to bet ..... and staying away from the tennis markets would be also helpful ... (I think that what also ruined some nice profits yesterday when I lumped a £1K on a female tennis player who decided to throw in the towel in the third set ... ) ...

These types of things are always interesting (in theory) .... I suggest you slightly alter it by "banking" half your winnings for each bet ... might take longer but at least if you fail big time you still have banked something ...[/i] Maybe a good idea to practice you what you preach ? |

jamesdean ... I do do exactly that ... the OP was doing an all in challenge (365 bets at long odds in the hope to win big big big big money) ..... whenever I have done all in challenges I have (nearly always) banked a portion as I go along ....

Stupid greyhound racing
 ... anyway will do an all-in mini challenge in keeping with JamesDean ... reposting of my suggestion to someone else.start with £250 and bank half profits as I go ... probably fall flat at 1st hurdle Bet 1: lay Istimraar in 7.10pm to win £88 |

Problem especially with the Aussie markets (esp greyhounds) is that they form so late .... which is a problem when trying to post up on here ...

Must admit but hard betting on the Aussie markets while posting up on here .... like I mentioned the markets form quite late with some movements right at the end which indicate which needs to be considered before betting ....

After many ups and downs trying to claw my back into a position to continue with the challenge .... apart from doing probably another £7K (hate to look
 ) on top of the original £3K finally got done in on Nadal losing in the semi-final just finished ... not to mention the Aussie football earlier on .... time has come to officially close this challenge off as a complete failure .... .... long live the challenges .... will start another shortly .... |
