This is the whole argument. So many people in here saying that value is a load of crap, yet nobody would be prepared to take "any" odds about the top selection.
Why is this so?
I suggest the answer lies with everybody here trying to get "value".

No! not some random number!
Common sense I would say. I personally settled for $2.50. Reason? Odds on favs just do not win often enough to produce a profit. But odds above the 2.50
line fit nicely into a 20 to 25% strikerate with an ave. return big enough to make some money.
If you call that looking for value, yes I cheerfully admit I am. |
