Hi Mad Gambler,

Couple of things to note. Firstly, 36 bets is nothing in the scheme of things, so you will be doing yourself a big disservice if you try and plan around a strike rate and ave dividend from such an insignificant sample.

Second, if your 25% strike rate does hold true for a larger sample of bets then you should be prepared for a longest losing sequence of twenty - how would your staking plan handle this number of consecutive losers?

My advice would be to play on paper until you have a sample of at least a couple of hundred bets. If you must bet then small flat stake betting is the way to go until you have more data. Until you know what you are doing a progressive staking plan is only going to get you into trouble - and will never, long term, 'magically' turn a losing method into a profitable one.
