Some system help...

[Beanie]

Over the past few months, I've noticed on quite a few occasions instances where Ladbrokes had prices which were quite far out of line(lets say shorter) with the general price level, and with alarming regularity these shorter prices are the eventual outcome. I finally decided to put in the work on a potential system this afternoon, when Fight Your Corner won a televised race on Channel 4, with the price up at 20/1, while Ladbrokes went just 10/1. So I'm looking for some System gurus to give me a few suggestions as to how to test this(I'm hypothesising that the Labrokes odds setters are a little better than others). I was thinking along the lines of finding selections where Ladbrokes are the shortest(by a particular %age) and then find the longest price for that selection. Make sense? :\ Needs lots of details worked out(staking ideas, which markets to limit it to(most instances I've noticed are in football markets), etc) and in all probability will turn out to be nothing, but I think its worth looking at. If anyone can give me a push in the right direction, it would be appreciated. Cheers. :ok

Re: Some system help... Beanie, as no one has replied to you yet, it's probable that devising a 'test' would be difficult. All I can advise is a 'system' you may like to test, it guarantees a profit every time, but the odds have to be right, shortening from long odds to fairly short. It also involves a large bank, compared to its yield. You will place the lay bet on the exchanges, but can use a bookie for the win bet. If you can back a horse to win at 20/1, and have the ability or a proven fool- proof system, (!), to know the odds will shorten down to 10/1 or less, you can do this; Back for £2 at 20/1. lay for 9.0 or less at £4. If your horse wins, you get £40 less your lay loss, £36 = +£4 If your horse loses, you lose win stake of £2, but win your lay bet, +£4, making a profit of £2. A bit of work for £2, but the larger your stake, the more you win, - you can't lose. However, I can't see this scenario presenting itself very often. Good luck!:ok
