Hey, hey.
Sorry there was a bit of cheek in my last post. I must admit to being a closet Dockers fan - just love watching the Wiz.
I've also backed them several times on the TAB this year (@ Subiaco only) and at well under $2.00 sometimes. It was a good earner this year.
But betting on the footy is a 2 horse race - there's only us and them to worry about. You can't get knocked off by a roughie getting a dream rails run.
The point about strike rates still holds though. If you're going to place bets with odds under $2, then you have to be very confident that you can pick more winners than losers.
Cheers.
Ok Rain Lover, you must be happy this last 24 hrs!
Following Freo is like not knowing the truth about Father Christmas.
We always have something to look forward to.
Maybe the day we make the 8 or the day we win the Premiership the novelty will wear off, but up until then we can only get better...can't we?
As for the system, I can pass my thanks on to Graham Sharp.
Well it was his system that I modified.
It climbed to about $700 plus, from $100, and then dropped to about $200 in the wet months.
It was at that time I withdrew my money from the TAB account, went to Burswood, thinking I could simulate a similar thing on the roulette table, and a few hours later left with a big meal inside me, plenty of drinks and empty pockets.
1111Back to the racing, the $1.10 bets were calculated by the tab and not through the bookies.
I had a few nice suprises when checking some of the odds at the end of the day and the odd $2.40 would come in.
That is why the $1.10's didn't phase me.
Some times they would be $1.10 when I put the bet on and then end up $1.30.
