mister magoo Posted November 30, 2010 Share Posted November 30, 2010 Thought Id have a lash at something Ive been following for a while, and that is the predictability of football matches involving certain teams. By this I mean laying the draw when various teams are playing. These teams are the teams with the least amount of draws in the four major leagues. The teams I have chosen to follow are as follows: EPL - Arsenal/Chelsea/Stoke Italian Serie A - Palermo/Udinese Spanish Primera Division - Barcelona/Real Madrid/Espanyol Barcelona German Bundesliga - Borussia Dortmund/FSV Mainz There may well be other teams with excellent records, but I have reduced the number down to the ten I have listed for simple mathematics. I will post the odds taken for my bets each weekend and update every week usually on a Tuesday for those interested. I wont deduct the 5% commission for Betfair as I'm too lazy. Bets will be one unit. Cheers all ... :gimme See Post 221 for 2011/2012 season teams......... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mister magoo Posted December 26, 2010 Author Share Posted December 26, 2010 Re: Magoos Magic Part II yield + 60% SR 26/29 Due to a little inactivity at the moment, I have decided to include two teams from the Belgium Jupiter League, albeit on a temporary basis. Therefore add the following lay draws: Genk/Saint Truiden laid @ $6.40 (Postponed) Gent/Club Brugge laid @ $3.90 WON Dont forget Arsenal have two matches coming up, plus another next weekend. I will probably maintain the Belgium League matches until the other leagues resume Cheers all :hope:hope Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grex Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 Re: Magoos Magic Part II yield + 41% SR 28/33 Good luck with your remaining selections Mr. M. I think you may be calculating your yield incorrectly. For laying systems, the yield is "profit/liability".... I make your yield around 9% (taking into account Bfair commission). Still a good return.... hope it continues :hope Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mister magoo Posted January 2, 2011 Author Share Posted January 2, 2011 Re: Magoos Magic Part II yield + 41% SR 28/33 Firstly, let me apologise sincerely to anyone following this thread if I have calculated profit erroneously. I know there are a lot of punters out there that follow various threads and place their faith in the authors experience, knowledge, etc. Let me explain how I arrive at my yield percentage. The prices show in this thread are not really prices, they are dividends, which include the stake for every lay. Therefore 1 unit should be deducted in each case - eg if Zaragoza/Real Sociedad finishes in a draw today, the loss is $2.50 per unit not $3.50 as quoted in the thread. Therefore I have had 28 successful lays returning 28 units profit, less 15.45 units (Chelsea, Stoke, Palermo, Arsenal and AKK Gent) for losing lays, equals 14.55. With 33 units outlayed in total, this is a 44% yield. If its only 9%, its hardly worth bothering about....:sad:sad:sad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mister magoo Posted January 3, 2011 Author Share Posted January 3, 2011 Re: Magoos Magic Part II yield + 41% SR 28/33 3 from 3 this weekend giving 31/36 overall. Valencia scored in the 90th minute to win 2/1. Phew...just got there... Cheers all :dude Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
