Marazan Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 Some bookies offer a very stupid market which is winning margin in 5 point increments, 1-5,6-10 etc. Using the results of my hadicapper I get a strike rate of about 15% if I aim it at the winning margin market. Normally the lowest odds offered for a winning margin by WH is @5 so if I only ever hit that then it's a losing proposition. However I just need to hit the occasional @10 or @17 to make it profitable. I've done no backtesting against odds for this system as I don't have access to any. It's an incredibly stupid market to aim at due to the arbitrary nature of the boundaries but I'll be having a go at it (with very small amounts of real money).
