I've been experimenting with a bot, placing *don't laugh* 0.10p stakes on outsiders - both win and place. (The tiny stakes are because this is me experimenting)
I was on Skyace today.
Here's the win bet (check the odds)....
I've just looked at my P&L so far today, and this is what it looks like.....
Selection Odds Stake (£) Bid type Placed Profit/Loss (£) Skyace 19.50 0.10 Back 20-Jul-20 11:08 1.26 *Average odds: On Off Back subtotal: 1.26 Lay subtotal: 0.00 Market subtotal: 1.26 Commission @ 2.38%: 0.03 Net Market Total: 1.23
I backed this at 19.50!
The place bet.....
Selection Odds Stake (£) Bid type Placed Profit/Loss (£) Skyace 7.40 0.10 Back 20-Jul-20 11:08 0.39 *Average odds: On Off Back subtotal: 0.39 Lay subtotal: 0.00 Market subtotal: 0.39 Commission @ 2.56%: 0.01 Net Market Total: 0.38
I backed this at 7.40!
Am I being thick, or is there something not quite right here??
