TheRock_Discipline Posted August 10, 2008 Share Posted August 10, 2008 This is a a new thread for my 20% ROI challenge because I don't want to look at the old one anymore. ;) My goal is still the same as I try to get rid off stupid habits and bet with more discipline. Rule #1 - Patience is the virtue of the strong Don't get greedy and change your stakes because of losses. Experience and losses will make you stronger, blowing your bankroll won't. Rule #2 - Do not get caught up in emotions Spend at least 15 minutes researching and analyzing every match you bet on. Don't rely on a gut feeling in a match you just watched for 2 minutes. Rule #3 - Analyse your selections after winning and losing Look at the long-term perspective. Because you won a bet doesn't mean it was a good one. And when you lose a bet it doesn't mean you failed. Re-analyze how close you were to winning/losing and which factors, predicitions and expectations proved to be wrong although you won a bet and vice versa. Rule #4 - Be selective Stay as close to your sport, or your area of expertise in this particular sport as possible. Rule #5 - No in-play betting without strategy Do not bet in-play unless you have a very clear strategy.

TheRock_Discipline Posted August 12, 2008 Author Share Posted August 12, 2008 Re: The Rock says - 20% ROI (Football) Bet #16 33 min. in - Fiorentina v Slavia Prague Under 3.5 @ 1.3 Very cautious play by Fiorentina after 1-0 What I learnt now is to trade-out immediately if my "impression" of the match changes. Now Fiorentina started to play straightforward attacking football again so I trade-out at half-time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheRock_Discipline Posted August 13, 2008 Author Share Posted August 13, 2008 Re: The Rock says - 20% ROI (Football) Is it possible that a Betfair bet is somewhere in the nirvana between matched and settled? If I don't see the settled bet in the account statement should it still be a "matched bet" (current bets)? Because I can't find my Twente v Arsenal bet. :lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
