Admin, do you think there is any worth in doing this in the long term?

There are far many more markets to delve into for betting, rather than betting on a team to win/lose consistently over a period.

The Asian Handicap betting markets is typically where the pros go. Beyond that, correct score and FGS are arguable the worst bets you can ever place. The bookmakers Vig(margin) is huge on those markets.

Corners and cards are always a decent way to go as well.

Also unders and overs in terms of goals.

Still, as you say, it's a mugs game. I applaud anyone who can make betting their only source of income

The bookies

You know what I mean. Although I bet every weekend and most weekdays

me and the mrs have 20 quid a week, so do the inlaws and my bro and his mrs.
we split what we win.
so far this season weve had just over 5k.

like i say, Millwall let me down for 1600 quid on a 9 fold acca last night

Dunc, unlucky. The most I nearly won was 4.2k but one game let me down on a 12 fold I believe.

Most I've won is around 2k

was only a 3 quid bet too

just watch who you bet with.

the inlaws do theirs at Willy hills and i do mine on sky bet.

ive checked their bets on sky and the difference is huge.

they were getting 800 quid at willi hills but 1200 for exactly the same on sky bet

I use McBookie http://www.top100bookmakers.com/profit-margin/soccer.php

Yeah Skybet are just good for promos and Request-a-bets

I bet on Wills and Bet365, myself

Its essentially a bet victor clone. If you bet £30 per week they give you £5 free bet.

They do a 4/5 coupon buster(stake back as free bet), that has no minimum odds. So betting 4 teams like PSG, City, Barca etc and then throwing in an evs team, works really quite well. Its pretty much the only way id ever bet an acca

Will look into it, cheers.

Have you ever tried matched betting?

another good way of bumping up your cash is doing an in play acca.

bet on all teams that are 2-0 up or more and throw 100 quid at it.

if you can pick about 15 you'll triple your money if they all come in.

my mrs won 350 quid on saturday on her acca.

she had wycombe v carlise and scunny v whoever they were playing.

all were winning and they offered her an 80 quid cash out.

scunny conceded to make it 1-1 and wycombe had a player sent off and conceded a penalty.

scunny then went ahead and carlisle equalised against wycombe and then went 3-2 up.

my cash out was 5p.

i was sat there looking at it and wycombe equalised in the 93rd minute and scored again in the 94th... it jumped from 5p to 350 in seconds

I was wondering this but then looked at the figures and decided it wasn't really worth it.

Take Inter for example - the best team to bet against since the creation of JA:

You make £62 profit over 251 games.

That's 24 pence profit per game...

Over a season it would be worth it (e.g. Chelsea this year) but you don't know the info at the start of the season.

A mate of mine is a professional at this game. Thought it was all bull at first but then I saw his betting 'room' at his place. 24 TVs all on one wall covering nearly every global sport imaginable. He's got mega rich clients that hire him to put bets on for them. If he wins, he gets a cut, if he fails he's not accountable (they're just less likely to continue using him). At 24 years of age he bought a 5 bed place in Muswell Hill (rich area of London for those not aware) completely in cash. We're talking millions - no mortgage. Incredible. Stands to reason that whatever you're doing with the stats in the main article isn't far off what he did in mastering the sports betting field. It's only a mug's game if you don't know what you're doing. Most don't, including myself. Some, however, can play the game extremely well.

If truth be told, calling it a mugs game is probably the wise and fair assumption for most folk to make. Your mate benefits from the OPM(Other peoples money) effect as you always get a cut of a winning bet. Convincing folk to give him the cash is something he must very accomplished at. So there must be a reasonable talent behind his predictions.

Off the top of my head, I've been banned from Paddy, William Hill, Ladbrokes, Betfred for various sized wins and such. Its the dirty secret that they wont actually let you win consistently and just about tolerate the punters who win the occasional Hail Mary type bet,

Ultimately these days my focus is on the WDW markets as if I can crack that nut I can use the exchanges and not worry about getting banned.

That's an absolutely incredible return. Its 25% which is astounding, If i could hit a 25% return id retire within a couple of years.

I made money a few seasons ago betting against United in a lot of games.

I've barely won a decent bet since, my worst run ever. I'm convinced the ABU is real, like the Illuminati and somebody is out to get me because of it.

Oh and if I have a good run of winning, I get banned.
