The football went well today. The highlights were Manchester United winning 3-0 (a winner at 8.0), Chelsea came in on the Any Unquoted at 4.5, and Everton won comfortably at 3.0.
The lowlights were Tottenham's failure (yet again) to win at home against lowly opposition, and Wigan's unexpected - by me anyway - win at Wolves.
The Championship proved even better with 6 of 11 games finishing exactly as predicted.
League One was 3 of 9, League Two was 2 of 6, the Conference National was 2 of 6 and the limited Scottish schedule finished 3 of 10.
The Correct Score market looks to be a better bet so far than the Match Odds. More research is needed of course; something to make the long winter evenings just fly by.
I'm also strongly considering scrapping the ratings for the regional Conference Leagues. Too much effort, for too little reward.
Football-Elite tipped Stoke City today, but they came up short against Liverpool. Their short-list bets had a torrid time, with three selections (Hannover '96, Wolves and Grenoble) all losing.
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.
