Hodgey Posted June 2, 2008 Share Posted June 2, 2008 OK here's my attempt at giving up work!? Well it's a glory hunt right!?! :loon I'll be laying horses where I think the price to lay is value - ie I think I have an edge. Hence the title - Livin' on the Edge! (and also everytime you see this thread the Aerosmith song will start going through your head!) :tongue2 Staking plan will be fixed profit related to bank size and everytime (IF:lol) the bank increases by the end of the day so will the stakes for the next day. If I make a loss on the day the stakes will remain the same. If I make a lot of losses in a row I'll consider revising the stakes for bank preservation but hopefully this won't need to happen. :hope I expect results to be pretty volatile from day to day, but hopefully I'll win in the long run! Initial start bank is 3000 and stakes are 0.5% of the bank so to begin with will be 15.00. Right then that's all the info, now all I need is some selections. Starts this arvo. Wish me luck, I think I may need it.....! :loon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Currently toying around with something myself and Friday saw 3 10/1 shots come in at 13.5, 1 9/1 at 13.5 and a 15/2 also with similarily nasty odds. Every time I think I'm going to put it out there I lose almost half my bank in a couple days:$ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hodgey Posted June 2, 2008 Author Share Posted June 2, 2008 Re: Livin' on the Edge Great stuff' date=' lots of luck![/quote'] Thanks mate. :ok Yes I expected nothing but a loser to start with! Small consolation for me in that cos of the 2 withdrawals the price was reduced to 8.60 on the winner. But it was still a dirty horse barging the other one! :lol Good luck with yours mate. :ok Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It went off at 4.50 on Betfair too, but that's just the way it goes with laying. You win some you lose some on the prices swings.
