Day 7 done

Boring I know but a slow and steady increase in the bank is the aim of my road to riches!

Over 3.5. Who's game?

One More Solo · 4 Jan 2012 at 22:38

It's the way to go. I'm targeting £50 banked then I'll be going 1.05 or lower I think.

It wouldn't surprise me but I'm not that brave.

Under 4.5 is 1.12 atm
Or no sending off at 1.06

it was 6.8 as well just before he scored

Jokester · 4 Jan 2012 at 22:56

That's me up to

Day 6: £172.21 (+35.3%)

edgedemon · 4 Jan 2012 at 22:57

That was close..
Just about got away with that one and am now @ £31.74 so £11.74 profit in 2 bets.
Gonna calm it down a bit and stick to 1.01/1.02 bets as it defeats the object of this otherwise..

Just signed up to Betfair. Was going to transfer my balance from Paddy Power to Betfair but it seems really complicated. How do you do multiples?

Lead_Head · 5 Jan 2012 at 07:34

These are single bets but for multiples you need to go to multiples in the bottom left.

Russinating · 5 Jan 2012 at 09:19

What have multiples got to do with this thread? Not being funny but it's getting seriously derailed and there's already a whole thread for football betting in the Football Stadium.

On topic, up to £42.57 now. As you can see mainly sticking to Under 4.5+ Goals. Shouldn't have really took a risk on last night's ice hockey despite the low odds.

Russinating, what are your plans in terms of having an end point or milestone where you will withdraw some of your winnings?

Russinating · 5 Jan 2012 at 09:31

At £100 I'm going to withdraw £24.12 to cover the extra I had to deposit due to the bet that lost, taking me down to £75.88. I'll then get back to £100 and split the pot into 2x £50s and go from there.

I don't know if it's worth then only ever betting a maximum of £50 on each bet or not, else it'd be quite hard to keep track of what the total bank roll is for each virtual pot. And when the total bank becomes £150 that then becomes 3 virtual pots. Not sure yet!

Because I'm now having a go at this and when there are 2 teams at 1.04 with 85 minutes left I'd like to put my stake on it. You could have just answered the question without being funny about it.

Russinating · 5 Jan 2012 at 09:59

It had already been answered?

peterattheboro · 5 Jan 2012 at 10:03

True. Still no need to tell me to bugger off to the other thread in FS.

Thank you Lead Head.
