Baracca reacted to Trotter in £20 Daily Challenge - All Welcome
Further to the above I think I will take a leaf out of BH's book and keep a more detailed record and try out sequences of the same bet to see how they go ..... maybe do runs of 30 of the same bet which should be a month or so
As I've been off the thread for a week or two I'll start this as of today (unfortunately with a losing EW double ..... but not disheartened as it included a winner and a 4th)
EW Doubles

Baracca reacted to yogg in progressive betting on tennis? and being banned for it?
@curiousmind
the household name bookies really don't like sure bets/arbing, i got banned from marathon and betfred for arbing.
i found that a blessing as i discovered many brilliant smaller bookies my favourite being 22Bet who have an incredible range of bets on any sport although their site is not the easiest to navigate (yet).
as for progressive betting try "the bookies bank" system which is, imo, an excellent low risk way to progressively increase your bank and works very well using odds between 2.5 and 5.0

Ajla Tomljanovic/Madison Keys over 20.5 games at 1.90 with Pinnaclesports
Have already taken this bet on a higher total, over 21.5 games acctually, but I think this looks fairly reasonable also at a little lower odds but still good enough for a bet. They've met 3 times and two times it's ended with 3 sets. My feeling says Ajla wont give up so easily this time as she lost in straight sets in Wimbledon this summer to Keys and it ended under 20 games and why this total is only at 20.5 games is probably because of that match or it would have been a higher total. So far in San Jose Ajla has crushed qualifier Georgina Garcia Perez in first round and it came as no surprise but she played outstanding on serve as she didn't allow even one breakpoint. She looked like a woman on a mission to go far in this tournament. She's awarded with this rematch and Ajla has beaten Madison once before in 3 sets and this is another possible 3 set match between them without a doubt. Why their encounter in Wimbledon ended in 2 sets could be explained by the surface that suits Madison so well as she's won for example Birminghams grass tournament before, the tournament Petra Kvitova has won several times and other big names. Last season Madison came to Stanford the former venue of this tournament and got Caro Dolehide in first round and she started really slow and lost the first set. Now she hasn't played since Wimbledon and comes equally prepared as last season. Ajla is mutch better than Caro Dolehide and should be able to hold serve enough times for maybe a tie-break and perhaps even take a set as previous 2 of 3 times in this matchup.

Martin Klizan/Dusan Lajovic over 24.5 games at 2.13 with Pinnaclesports
They've met 3 times before and 2 of those times they played 3 sets with minimum 26 games all 3 times on clay and Martin owns a 2-1 record having won the last meeting in 2015 in their first and only until today ATP maindraw encounter and Martin won 2-1 and it was then it finished with 26 games. They're both good on clay and can play well on the surface and there's nothing suggesting this will finish in under 23 games so I think at least this will be 25 games and it almost requires a 3 set match to be played. All 3 previous matches today have ended after 2 sets so I think this one will likely end after 3 sets. Hopefully not a bad guess

I was thinking about this one too yesterday when looking through the Pinnacle tennisodds and I don't know what exactly makes the american favourite either.

Yunseong Chung to beat John Wolf at 2.04 with Pinnacle
Two promising players meeting here, but I prefer Chung at the odds and given that he's been incredibly solid against players of Wolf's level results-wise so far this year. He isn't going to underestimate Wolf, so I'm not exactly sure what makes the American the favourite here.

Baracca reacted to Sir Puntalot in Well done BillyHills - an example to all!
The horse racing tips have had an indifferent period despite being well in profit, but @BillyHills changed nothing about how he makes his selections and that takes serious discipline and belief that the tide will turn.
July saw a record month of profit, touching nearly £5000 from £20 stakes, which is awesome!
Myself and @BillyHills have been on PL since the T-Rex was roaming the planet, but I've always said he IS Punters Lounge and a lot can be learned from him, along with plenty of other PL members.
Spreadsheet results will be updated later today.

Many thanks
Hopefully some kept the faith, thankfully the weather has been a lot more consistent this past 6 weeks and that has probably made the difference.
I know some follow the top tracks thread and we turned that around from a £400 loss into a £900 profit with just £10 stakes.
Just got to keep hold of it now

Yes - but have a look at the price of the winner of the 4.10. This competition would have ended today if anybody had got it
