Tournament betting experiment

[Datapunter]

Something i thought about quite some time ago already but i've never found the time to really explore it. So without any real research i'm just going to have a go. The idea is a strategy, basically more about trading than betting, to lay an odds-on favourite in a tournament and then bet on the same favourite on each match as the tournament progresses. If the favourite gets knocked out early you make a profit on the Winner market, if he progresses to the final then by that time you should be in a position of profit overall. !! IF !! you can get odds that are good enough on the individual matches. Update of results after each tournament. Anyone's invited to join in with any other tournaments you might have your eye on. Or post results based on historical info if you have any or try some variations. I'm doing this with a small amount of cash but DON'T advise anyone else to put money on, haven't done any serious research on this.

Re: Tournament betting experiment Data, I am currently experimenting with something a bit similar. I placed a 24 bet accumalator on "sure things" which with a £10 stake returns about 3k. The first 8 have won and I am now using the 3k return as money I can back against my selections whilst still keeping in profit. All of the events I have chosen will have available markets for me to bet on. I was thinking of posting it here but I'm not so sure if it's a system per sa.
