FleetFanatic Posted August 27, 2005 Share Posted August 27, 2005 Ladbrokes do a double chance bet on all their matches, I presume other sites do the same. Double chance is where you can back a team to win or draw for lower odds than a win only - basically a 'not to lose' bet. They also take acca's on these so here's my plan: based on my ratings system, I'm looking for 10 double chance bets on home teams, between 1.10 and 1.30 that give me a 3/1 (roughly) acca. £10 stake in the first instance - if all teams win or draw, we win. We would then bank half of the winnings, with the other half going onto the following week's selections. As soon as we have a losing weekend, the stakes return to £10. Based on 3/1: if we could go 3 weeks on the trot & lose on the 4th, we'd have banked £140. if we could go 5 weeks on the trot & lose on the 6th, we'd have banked £620. if we could go 7 weeks on the trot & lose on the 8th, we'd have banked £2540. if we could go 10 weeks on the trot & lose on the 11th, we'd have banked £20460. How hard can it be to get 10 teams not to lose at home? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FleetFanatic Posted August 27, 2005 Author Share Posted August 27, 2005 Re: Double Chance Bank & Roll Up Selections based on my own ratings, going from team with strongest rating advantage downwards - ignoring teams where double chance odds are lower than required until we have 10 teams for approximately 3/1. Partick 1.18 Gillingham 1.25 Kidderminster 1.11 Walsall 1.19 Kilmarnock 1.10 Aldershot 1.10 St. Mirren 1.13 Swindon 1.20 Hereford 1.14 Ross County 1.18 Pays 3.54/1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FleetFanatic Posted August 27, 2005 Author Share Posted August 27, 2005 Re: Double Chance Bank & Roll Up Thanks, was wondering about a 2/1 acca with less teams but it would take a lot longer to make a decent return. Considering most of my ratings selections have been winning & most that haven't have drawn, I'm looking forward to seeing how this goes! If it's pants then after a few attempts I'll look at downgrading to 2/1 acca's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FleetFanatic Posted August 29, 2005 Author Share Posted August 29, 2005 Re: Double Chance Bank & Roll Up I intend to keep it going. Change of tactic for Monday - this time teams with the highest league position difference over their opponents: Luton 1.08 Reading 1.08 Huddersfield 1.49 Port Vale 1.47 Leyton Orient 1.08 Notts County 1.47 Stevenage 1.38 Grays 1.17 £10 would return £67.67 These teams are all 15 places or more higher in their respective divisions than their opponents, which may pan out more as the season develops.

FleetFanatic Posted August 29, 2005 Author Share Posted August 29, 2005 Re: Double Chance Bank & Roll Up Yes but I'm annoyed - without the 1.08's it was a £51.98 payout. Moral of the story - avoid the below 1.10 rubbish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
