I have done it a few times for short periods but it is such a mind numbingly boring exercise, I always quickly dropped it. Being selective is the key to profit in that area of betting and that is where the inefficiency lies, selectively being able to exploit it profitably.

Hi Crash,
I've always found the inefficiency to be far greater for win betting on these shorties. The very best I could do with filters was -2.88% LOT for the place using best TAB price.
There is one system that has a 4.89% place POT based on speed figures, but again the win POT is 14.45%. (Athough it's a long stretch between selections, so not a great deal of action). |
