Championship: 5 draws from 5 selections
League One: 3 draws from 5 selections, 2 losses
League Two: 1 winner, one loser
Conference: 1 winner, one loser
The problem was that of the 10 Championship and League One selections, the eight draws were all predicted as home wins! Quite a feat really. As I wrote yesterday, opening day usually throws up some odd results. I layed Norwich City for a fun bet too, and look how that result turned out. I doubt that anyone predicted that!
I will wait for six matches before betting with significant money, by which time form for this season should have started to sort itself out.
About Me
- Cassini
- 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.
