Hello All,
Just a quick question from a relative newbie.
I have placed a bet on a horse/team at a certain price, this price then proceeds to drift in the build up to the start/kick-off time. Is there a process to decide at what point, if ever, the new, higher price becomes such that we should increase our stake in the horse/team?
This happened to me today whilst betting on a UK horse race. A price on BetFair drifted out to 9.5 (decimal odds), when I had previously backed it at 7.2 (whilst it had been around 5.5 with other major UK books).
If a line can be estimated and compared to those put out by the books, how do we adjust our betting strategy once an initial wager has been made?
Sorry if this is obvious or a question that has been asked previously. Is there a specific term for this as I could not find anything in a search.
Many Thanks
