What is this "depositing" of which you speak? aldric and alexcaruso808 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harry_rag Posted February 18 Share Posted February 18 Just checking today's results and see that Connacht have given me a bit of a bloody nose! Sold their hotshots at 51, made up at 125 for a loss of 74 x stake. Sold their sub try minutes at 49, made up at 230 for a loss of 181 x stake. They scored 9 tries and 8 of them cost me money! I've never checked but it feels relatively rare for both of those markets to be so costly for one team in a single game. I guess if you hit a result like that early on it could make you think twice about carrying on but, with over 5300 bets under my belt it's just part of the ebb and flow. And the fact that bad results like that are possible is a huge part of the reason that it's such a profitable way to bet. On the subject of credit checks etc. if anyone ever did choose to try spread betting I'd recommend applying for a credit account rather than a deposit one. As the amount lost on a losing bet is unknown until after the event you have to deposit quite a bit to cover any potential loss. With, say, £1k credit you just settle up any net loss at the end of a losing week and can withdraw any profit whenever you like if you're in front. alexcaruso808 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
