    mate, at least you are hitting the cross-bar and they are troubling the judge.

    Which means your system has merit !

    Thanks Curious, but I use a UK book and we dont bet like that, we can only bet win or each way (1/5 of the odds for 2nd or 3rd), im not sure how I would work it out as the usa tote work different over here.

    20% win - 80% place only on betfair might work .... but the short price of some of the selections would not make that kind of bet worthwhile .. would also depend on number of runners ... as long as your strike rate remains at above 50% and your average selection price @ above even money - you're doing fine

    Marvelboy,

    Have a check of your 2unit tips - so far - those 2 unit tips that you have posted on here are 6 for 8 = 75% - FANTASTIC mate - Keep the faith !

    Just check my thinking

    3rd June - King of Eden won 8/11f
    4th June - Aestival won 2/5f, Bona Fortune won 4/5f & Fame & Glory won
    5th June - Sir Frank 2nd
    6th June - Command Marshal 2nd
    7th June - Stags Leap won 10/11f
    8th June - Cannon Fire won 4/9f

    all at SP - you should be able to check better prices before the off !

    Not bad with a martingale system !

    martingale system a bit like the chase system that I read about on here? thank you for doing those stats much appreciated

    7.05 Southwell Cannon Fire 2 units ( price taken 1.57) won by 27 lengths
    7.50 Bangor Seeyaaj 1 unit ( price taken 3.25 (9/4)) drifted out to 13/2 (7.5) and came 2nd shame he didnt get up as it would have been a very nice win

    broke even tonight will post results later and tomorrows system bets within the next hour

    Martingale System is when you double up after a loss

    so its 1 unit - if you lose - next bet - 2 units - then 4 units, 8units, 16 units - until you get a winner

    If you have a strike rate of over 70%+ - martingale system should work.

    Go back over all your tips from Cape Rio onwards and you might see some good results on 2 unit wins

    http://laytheodds.com/lay-betting/articles/losing-runs/

    even with a 70% strike rate - you should expect a losing run every 1000 bets of at least 6 ... this would mean over the course of a year - at an average of three bets per day ... at some point you should expect to be betting 127 points to win 1 point .... not my idea of fun ... martingale or any version of it should be avoided at all costs.



    The way I would look at betting something like this is .....

    Start bank = $500/points/whatevers - bet 4% to win on each selection. (or 3% of bank on 1 point bets and 5% of bank on 2 point bets) Recalculate after each race.

    Well done for your system Marvelboy! Your picks looks excellent! If the 2units picks have 70% strike rate, then any price over 100/70=1,42 (international odds price) has value. And as more over this price is, so more value for your pick in the long term. Martingale will work for some periods, but i 'll agree with jw, that in the long term will destroy our bank, or at least our heart...

    I bet to BET365 too, but sometimes Betfair have better prices, check ti to see. I leave in Europe too, i don't know if guys from USA can bet at these bookies.

    I gave you some points in your today's post with the picks! I also post the picks from a known service in U.K., you can check them too.

    G.L. for today!




    P.S. The system you use is yours, or something known we can buy? Thanks!

    Promas, its my system and im still tweaking as I go along, I wouldnt sell it as im not here to charge people.

    I do use betfair but as im doing it on paper Im just uising industry SP.

    Very unlucky today Sharp Eclipse getting 2nd and Royal Dignatry not getting the rail and hitting the front early cost the race.

    Marvelboy,

    Keep the faith - win strike rate 70% is good in anyone's money.

    In the money strike rate - 10/10 = 100% - shows you are defo hitting the crossbar - just sometimes the crossbar - but still good !
