advice on betting strategy needed


Recommended Posts

I have 32 selections and £1000 to play with in stake money. The results of all 32 selections are simultaneous. average odds 1-2. I am pretty certain that at least 27 of the selections will be correct but do not know for sure which 5 will be wrong. Each of the 32 selections has a 75% or better chance of happening. Should I look at single bets, doubles and trebles or accumalators and if so any pointers in structuring a betting strategy would be helpful? Anything obvious would be welcomed as I havent placed a bet since 1998.

Re: advice on betting strategy needed As long as you're betting with value, accumulators will give you a higher return over time. But if you're doing this as a one-off and want to go for a safer, smaller return, then I would settle for doubles or trebles, the safest of course being singles. It's just a matter of balancing risk and profit. Singles give the least profit but carry the smallest risk. 9-fold accumulators give the highest profit with the highest risk. Singles are the most forgiving if your probability estimates are wrong. Accumulators are the least forgiving. Etc. If you can achieve a 1.50 odds on 32 selections with a 75% chance of happening, go borrow some more money.
