Today, there is one selection for the Football Laying System (I need a catchy name for this, any ideas?) which is Dagenham and Redbridge (3.2) playing at Accrington Stanley in a League Two fixture. I am laying £10.65 hoping to to win £4.64 (pre-commission).
Result: Dagenham and Redbridge (both...) lost, so the bank increases to £1,070.28 and the selections tomorrow, and there will be a few, will all be layed to 1% of that, i.e. £10.70.
About Me

- I have had a life-long interest in sports and after studying Pure Mathematics with Statistics at secondary school, have been fascinated by odds and probability. The first system I came up with was a simple one - back the favourite and double up after a loss until a winner. Simple enough in theory, and I told my Dad about it. Not being a betting man himself, he ran it by some of his colleagues, and came home to tell me that it wouldn’t work because a long losing run would mean that the bank would be empty. Then there was always the possibility that the winner would be returned at odds-on, meaning that the total returns would not match the outlay. Not what a ten year old wants to hear! Only slightly daunted, I then went on a search for the Holy Grail, the secret to riches that I knew was out there somewhere. Finally in 2004 I stumbled across an article about Betting Exchanges and four years later I was able to make a steady profit.
Roberto,
ReplyDeleteOnly recently found your blog and wanted to say I find it a very enjoyable read. I've now added it to others I read. Please could you say whether you have any particular rules for the football lay system, for example away teams less than 4.0?
Thanks Claire. I'm trying to make it more than just a record of my investments, so check back.
ReplyDeleteTo answer your question, by definition, the system has certain criteria as to what games I am selecting, and although I don't specifically exclude selections where the price is above a certain amount, e.g 4.0, the nature of this system makes that occurrence somewhat unlikely. But not impossible!
