Do you have an eye on two particular matches going into the day or have multiple matches coined and then watch the stats/flow of them to make the final picks?

If I may ask what book are you using that will allow such large bets on a live play like this?
Assuming of course (and hoping) you make it up to 50, 60, 73, like you have done before?
This would be a really cool challenge for me to try as well but I dont know any books that would allow bets like this..Comment -
Hi buddy. I have a few matches on a shortlist and then if they play attacking football, I get involved and place the bet.
I use Betfair which for the bigger leagues, not only the top 5, but also Holland, Portgual, etc, the liquidity is very very good and you will have 0 problems placing a £2000 live bet on an over 0.5 goals. I don't know where you live, but if you could get an account with books that have exchange markets, like Betfair, Betdaq, Smarkets, you'd be ok. The normal books either limit your stakes after a while, or flat out ban you if you win. Happened to me with a couple of bookmakers.Comment -
Well, at a certain point in your winnings (like win 60)wouldn't you be betting way more than 2k?? Like over 10k?
I live in the U.S.
This looks like an awesome way to have fun and actually make some decent coin..
Lol, nevermind..I get it now. I had a way bigger starting Roll in mind I think..still an awesome challenge.Last edited by AceChampion; 11-29-20, 01:29 PM.Comment -
I start very small, like £10. Usually when I want to make some cash, I start with £100, bet on 7 matches and double up. If I get to 100 bets in a row, from £10, that's be close to £150k.
Some 0-0's today, Chelsea, Anderlecht, Leverkusen, just to name a few.
Me and my wife decided a few years ago to stop working for others and started a business. The betting thing is purely recreational. I honestly couldn't win 3 bets in a row if I were to pick who to win. So this is more fun for me and I don't even need luck, I need to avoid being unlucky which is a big difference. Even if i lose the challenge on this try, I will try again and again and again. I used to be overweight and I used to smoke. The money that I stopped spending on smoking and always eating out pays for my monthly lease on my car. That takes discipline, same as with this challenge. I know the odds are stacked against me but who cares if I lose one time or 500 times? It's not that big of a deal.
Some decent games on offer tomorrow so I should be able to find two bets.Comment -

If there's enough liquidity on the bet you want to place (you can see how much money is available for every bet in real time) you can place whatever amount you want. A 30k, 50k, 100k bet is absolutely possible, especially on the Premier league matches. Right now at Arsenal vs Wolves, 11k is available on the over 2.5 goals at half time, and that's just for right now as if you have 11k and bet it all, give it 2 seconds and more money will be available to bet again. Remember, exchange markets like Betfair, Betdaq and Smarkets, amongst others, you bet against other people, not against the bookie. The bookie takes a 2% comm from your profit but in return it gives you the freedom to bet how much you want, given that there's someone else betting against you if that makes sense.
Ever since discovering exchange markets, i've never been back to normal books, not worth it. You get better odds and freedom.
To answer the last question, from $10 you'll get to 135k after comm. after 100 bets @ -1000. Don't know if you pay taxes on that, depends where you live, but in the UK gambling profits are tax free.Last edited by EnglishTifoso; 11-29-20, 03:22 PM.Comment -
Im kind of a dummy, I guess.
Explains why I'm a losing gambler
overall but in all seriousness can you explain that further?
I am not understanding how betting $10 at -1000 odds you can get to that balance.
And thanks for the bet exchange info..
I honestly knew of them for years but never knew the ins and outs or explored that option.Comment -
Not a dummy at all, perhaps I haven't explained properly. You roll the money over every time, basically you are ALWAYS all in so the stake will increase with every bet you make.
Example: Bet 1: over 0.5 @ -1000, you bet $10, you win $1.
Bet 2: over 0.5 @ -1000, you bet $11 this time, you win $1.10
Bet 3: over 0.5 @ -1000, you bet $12.1 this time, etc.Comment -
-
Haha, still no.
Basically after 10 bets, you'd be at $25, after 20 bets you'd be at $67, after 30 bets you'd be at 173, after 40 bets you'd be at 450,
50 bets: 1170
60 bets: 3030
70 bets: 7860
80 bets: 20.4k
90 bets: 52.9k
100 bets: 137kComment -
Lol, ok ..thank you.
I know for sure I'd never have the stones to bet 50k on a goal..
I'd walk long before then..
Good luck and thanks so much for the explanations.Comment -
There are no exchanges in my area so I'm going to do this but start with $100.
Then just when and if I get there just max bet whatever I like under the current betting limits for the match. Some matches go as high as 1k live..should be fun.Comment -
The reason why I start very small when planning on doing a long run is because I know that I could hit a 0-0 easily. When I want to make some quick cash, I start with £100/£200, bet 7 times, double up, done.
If you start from $100, that's roughly 24 bets done already, so 38 days at 2 a day left for you. Let's get that money!Comment -
I won't play long because as I mentioned before IF I get too high of a balance I'll either chicken out and take it or be limited by the book.
With patience and a little luck it does seem a very nice option for bank building here and there or just quick cash.
Seriously, 99% percent of my bets over the last 5 years or more have been "live" plays. I'm pretty damn confident that I can pick some matches with a better than good chance of a goal...but we both know anything can and always does happen.Comment -

Sorry guys, not really sure what's allowed to be said on this forum because i'm not looking to get banned but you can easily find me and select notifications there. I will look into the Telegram thing as well but need to find some time as we've been really busy with orders and shipping to customers for the family business. But especially during week days, I will post my bets usually after 6pm UK time as there's not much I like before then.Comment -
That's fine. From 6pm, I will be here. I had a notification of your message so that means I won't miss out. Good Job!Comment -
I would like to make a suggestion; dnt edit your posts, instead "reply with quote" when you update the score.

Only seeing this now but am going to join in at the 20% mark and see it through. GL and looking forward to plays. What would you suggest so that I see the plays as quickly as you release them?
CheersComment
