Last week, I decided to give away a couple of my top rated value selections from across the big five leagues to the XX Draw subscribers, and after both won, thought I would throw in some more from the midweek matches. I'm a generous chap. Another two winners midweek, but the remarkable thing about all four wins - two home, two away - is that they were all by 2-0. Boring is good. The odds on all four winning were 12.29 (Pinnacle odds) but on all four winning 2-0? High!
I'll add these into the FTL table from next week, but I won't make them eligible for prize money to give others a chance. Oh no - I'm turning into The Football Analyst! Seriously, I'm more interested in how they compare with the comparable Football Elite or Premier Betting account bets who pull from the same leagues as me.
Speaking of Football Elite, and they dropped a point as Granada went down 0-1 to Valencia. I had this as an XX Draw and was thus a little peeved to see the visitors win it in the 90+4'. Two other selections finished 2-0 (Nantes v Nice) and 1-1 (promoted Livorno v Cagliari). So three wins for the Under 2.5 selections, and Peter Nordsted's Drawmaster selection was also Livorno v Cagliari, so a little movement a the top.
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.
