My Official £50-£46,000 betting challenge

Having a good run, all bets are made in-play at 70 mins or later with the odd exception of 1 or 2 made at half time.

Started with £3.04 on monday

The bet withs odds @ 1.25 wasnt deliberate and I was quite annoyed.

Was betting from Ipod touch and a goal was scored between me typing the stake and clicking confirm and it matched it a 1.25 instead of checking if I was sure, but never mind made me a nice profit.

90th Minute OG meant you were unlucky. I would class your bet a little risky though?

Depends when it was placed.
I had the same game at under 3.5 goals.
Placed the bet just before the first goal (around 65-70 mins i think?) and got odds of 1.01 or something.
Maybe <2.5 was a little risky but he still might have been able to stick to the 1.04 odds rule.

Not that it matters but Valencia scored their first goal at '67 and the second goal was at 70' if he stuck to his 70min+ I doubt this bet would have been placed. I guess this was a half time bet. If so I still think it's risky. 3 goals in a half is common right?

Placed the bet at 64' mins.

Odds at the time we're 1.07 so higher than my rule but that was more a guideline as I placed a lot above 1.04

If I'd placed at 70+ mins then it would have been an over 4.5 possibly under 3.5

I'm pretty sure at the time a placed the bid the under 3.5 was offering 1.01 so under my target.

Learnt my lesson so I'm starting fresh with a tenner and will see how it goes as I was upto £24.09 from £3.04 in 3 days.
 
Another day is done - day 16

Slow and steady

Napoli v Cesena was today's and amazingly Cesena scored early doors despite being a 20/1 underdog to win the tie!! Who cares - a goal is a goal.

It has got me serious thinking mind you - Should i be doing this with £1000 starting balance??

Another 4 days should see me thru the 100% profit mark. So that's approx 20 bets on almost (bar one 1.09) every bet under 1/25 or so.

£1000 every 20 days - i could handle that!!:D:D:D

I know i'm risking £1k if it goes wrong etc etc - but i'll see how my "experiment" goes. For this one i'm just going to keep going as far as I can.

agreed in a sense but if you can "remove" yourself from the fact it's £1000 and not just a £10 - what's the difference. Take the emotional attachment away from it.

Don't change the betting pattern and what i'm sticking to and it should be fine! (he says confidently!!)

still in but had some close calls
 
I think I would feel physically sick if I put £1000 of my own money on one bet. I wouldn't be able to do anything for the entire duration of the match :p
