The Maria staking plan is designed to have its liability higher on the high priced runners assuming they have a higher chance of falling over & the liability lower on the low priced runners.

It can be used for place betting as well.

If one wishes for a stand alone program of this, one can be had by
(Googling) TSM (The Staking Machine)

It does rely on the quality of ones selections for this to work.


Betting to Price
If you want a sound staking approach for Place Betting .

Try betting to price where the price is divided into a take out amount , usually 16th of bank usually good for 22+ outs.

e.g. 1/16th of $200 bank = Take out amount $12.50

Place Div $1.40 / $12.50 = O/L $8.93

If it wins +$3.57 prof = +1.78% increase on bank.
Good money.

Using Betfair to utilise these outlay amounts.

It puts more on the lower prices & less on the higher prices which statistically have less chance of getting up.
