An Idea for a system £100 a wk profit, then stop...

[3hree]

... Anybody looked into a system such as this?? I am unaware of many systems and genres of system. I was just thinking if anybody ever experienced a system that aims at £100 profit p/w then stops, so Sunday - Sunday you aim to get a profit of £100. Once you strike this you wait til then next sunday, i've done somthing similar in the casino, as Christo will tell ya, just wondering if any of you folks were familiar with this idea as it has been worked before!!?? Cheers:ok

Re: An Idea for a system £100 a wk profit, then stop... Haven't seen a system such as this. However, one type of similar(ish) bet I can think of is perhaps a stop at a winner bet where (as I understand it) you protect your stake by stopping all subsequent bets in the event that the first selection wins. Another reason to stop after a certain level of profit has been reached would be (e.g.) in Blackjack where if you are card counting and the count has reached a stage where you have a negative expectation than it would make sense to stop. Even if you are not card counting it is sometimes prudent to walk away after you have reached a certain pre-determined goal. I'm not sure why you would want to stop at a certain level of profit won over a fixed time period particularly if your system is sports based fixed odds betting where you have, or hope to achieve, an edge over the bookies odds in the long term. Maybe if you have a small bank and use a large % stake then you may have to limit the amount of bets placed at the same time but other than that I see no reason to limit your stakes and therefore your winnings.
