harry_rag Posted March 7, 2022 Share Posted March 7, 2022 A single thread for all selections whether my own or following others. The previous approach was getting a bit too time consuming and I also wanted to revise the staking approach. A reminder of the staking plan; I'll continue to track to 10% of bank (10 points minimum) and 10 point level stakes. 100 point starting bank - I'm staking £1 per point (real money) on all selections posted in this thread. 5 "juggernauts" head out on the road, each laden with 10% of the starting bank (so day 1 stake is 10 points for a "maximum" of 5 bets per day)* Assuming 5 bets and they all win, next day's stake is total return divided by 5 (so rolling over the stakes equally) If less than 5 bets on any day the next day's stake is total return plus the unused stakes divided by 5 If a bet loses, that "wagon" is reloaded with another 10% of the starting bank from the "depot". The next day's stake is total return plus the reload amount divided by 5 After 5 losing bets there can be no further reloads so the next day's stake would be total return divided by 4 and the "maximum" number of bets reduced to 4* How long does this go on for? The aim is to achieve 10% growth in the initial bank (i.e. at that point the fleet returns to the depot to unload then goes out again with 10% of the revised bank). I've decided that the original target of 25% was over-ambitious. * Maximum is discretionary; there will be no more than that number of bets in play at the same time and the number won't be exceeded if there has been a losing bet that day. hagis and vikki37 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

harry_rag Posted March 8, 2022 Author Share Posted March 8, 2022 Bet 4: 10.37 points on Liverpool +2 v Inter at 1.02 It's skinny but I don't see Liverpool blowing it to that extent. Hopefully we get the Inter that went 4 games without scoring rather than the one that scored 5 last time out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

harry_rag Posted March 8, 2022 Author Share Posted March 8, 2022 Bet 7: 10.37 points on >0,5 goals in Bayern v RBS at 1.02 Was really hoping for an extra tick in this one but couldn't let it go begging. Just can't see it being goalless (he said, recklessly tempting fate). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

harry_rag Posted March 9, 2022 Author Share Posted March 9, 2022 Bet 8: 11 points* on each team being shown a card in R Madrid v PSG at 1.0873 with PP (via bet builder) Just beats the 1/12 on offer with 365, hard to see both teams not drawing at least one card in this game. *I've opted for rounding the stakes for non-exchange bets.

harry_rag Posted March 11, 2022 Author Share Posted March 11, 2022 Bet 15 (5): 12 points on Cadiz +5 v A Madrid at 1/40 with Lads I expect Atletico to win but not by a huge margin. Feels like an unappealing game for >0.5 at the available prices. I'm very surprised to see a +5 handicap on offer at anything better than 1.01.

harry_rag Posted March 11, 2022 Author Share Posted March 11, 2022 Bet 16 (6): 12 points on France to score 10+ points v Wales at 1/33 with 365 There was a time when this might have been closer to a coin toss proposition but, on current form, I find it inconceivable that France will fall this far short of the 28 or so points the markets are predicting.
