Total Goals From Half Time

[turnlux]

After a brief conversation with Madness about the amount of 2nd half goals vs 1st half goals, I have decided to start a new glory hunt with the view to going 1+ goal more on whatever the score is at half time.;) For eg 0-0 HT - Bet is 1+goal 1-0 HT 2+ goals 2-0 HT 3+ goals and so on. As madness mentioned in his thread this is briefly touched on in Paul Steele's book Profitable Football Betting in which he says:_ "There is a pattern to these results, which would suggest that the more goals in the first half the more there will be in the second. Conversely, the less goals there are in the first half the less there are in the second. This clearly shows the number of second half goals is dependent on the number of first half ones." It's this view i'm going to be betting on. All bets will be taken from Betfair's in-play market and i will start with a £50 start bank, aiming to win 5% of the bank. Where odds allow i will use 2-attempts to recover any losses. Unfortunately i'm off out at 12:@, so most of this will start early this evening but will get it under way with the alaves v elche match this morning. As always all comments, suggestions which might improve this in any way are welcome.:ok

Re: Total Goals From Half Time Me and my big mouth! :lol Seriously though, it's great to see somebody putting the theory to the test, and even better that it's somebody other than myself should it go wrong! As I mentioned in my own thread, I'll get some figures together to see how well the odds line-up against the probability based on the past data. If it's fairly accurate, I may well use this ploy alone in future '8 Stages of Madness' attempts. Best of luck with this mate, with you all the way :ok MT
