I laugh at these at work when customers are crying on the phone saying they've made a mistake when they have lost £1000s on a 1.02 bet.

Example £1000 to win £20 and it loses.

It will get you I guarantee it.

Thanks for the example, the maths can be tricky.....

Got this at 1/10, almost a cert lol

wtf is the point in that?

banking money to only put the same amount in makes no ******* sense what so ever. in fact your just losing money that way.

So that you only ever bet your winnings.
Ergo you never lose anything more than your initial bet.

If you lose when it's at £10,000 and you "call it a day", you have £5000 in the pot (assuming you banked when you doubled)
And also assuming you started on betting with £10 you are £4990 up!

which game? Sun - MCity less than 4.5 = 1/20 which looks good tbh.

What's a good site for live scores? Betfair only has football scores and others are very hard to find along with times; hockey, NFL, rugby union etc.

I've currently got open nfl live scores.....basically just google the sport with live scores afterwards. Although these are typically 30s - 1min slower than live so for betting purposes probably not the best. Might want to find a stream if theres one available?

 

[Russinating]

Yeah that's fine for NFL because it's popular but others are a nightmare/seem impossible. Even the BBC website doesn't have times for rugby.

day 5 done

 

[collisster]

good luck, greed always gets in the way though

 

[Andr3w]

I'm so tempted to give this a go but because I'm stupid I'd like to start with £1000 instead of £10.

Sooooo tempted.

I suspect someone on here might have lost everything on the darts last night!

Darts, golf and horse racing are 3 sports to avoid backing at short prices in my opinion.

Horse racing for sure - far to many times I've seen 1.01/1.02 beaten

I'm still in, but didn't do much yesterday:

Start: £12.00
Day 1: £15.91 (+32%)
Day 2: £21.44 (+35%)
Day 3: £25.25 (+18%)
Day 4: £26.56 (+5%)

I'm never betting on darts again after they almost wiped me out a couple of days ago. Beware!

 

[Russinating]

Football under goals is easily the safest bet. The reason darts is so risky is because someone has to win the remaining sets and there's always a chance the losing player could turn it around. Nobody has to score any goals however.

Tennis scores also seem equally difficult to find!
