posting no 2. This seemed a better way to go so i opened an acc with unitab and vic tab and nsw tab this way i could divide the stakes and not lower the divs etc. i started actual punting
at Flem on Jan 1st the first three bets were ok then the wheels fell off i was placing my bets too early ie 10 min to go and i was on the wrong horses this was bad so i waited until 2 min to go and still i was missing out, the changes in the divs and the pool totals were dismantling my holy grail.During the
5 month trial period i was checking the results every night after the last race etc. This was ok because betting was finalised but trying to hit the right horse in real time was useless , even betting past advertised starting time was no good the divs were still changing .
Anyway the rules i used were as follows , I only bet on vic racing 7 days a week
Rule 1 Must be 8 starters or more
Rule 2 Place fav must be 1-50 or better- no joint place favs
Rule 3 Selection is the clear second PLACE fav-no joint 2nd place favs
please note i am ignoring the race 2nd fav i am only interested in the PLACE 2nd fav in the place pool, this could be the race fav or 3rd or 4th even. like all systems ithit a bad run in Jan and i havent looked at it since i did my lolly'
