Several years ago one of my friends said he was Field Betting every day with the TAB and was making excellent profits. He sent me a print-out of his bets covering several months and it showed very good results. I did not look too closely at it as I had no interest in that type of betting.

But now looking again at the print-out it strongly suggests that the results would be even better if he limited the fields to a maximum of 11 runners (and had bet with Betfair). Unfortunately I cannot contact him as I would ask him how much he would increase his betting or to what extent if he had restricted the fields to 11 runners.

Has anyone had any experience with this type of betting or have any suggestions as to increasing the stakes after a losing race?

I'm interested in checking it out "on paper".

Thanks.
Michael.
