Due to my up and down results lately I haven't posted my bets although I should have posted Sampdoria to win at Frosinone last weekend, Frosinone haven't scored a goal yet this season.. They were 11/10 at my local bookies which I thought was an excellent price. I had £40 on it, knew I should have done a bit more, Samp won 5-0, I won just over £150 for the weekend.
I think Olympiakos to beat Real Betis at home tonight are good bet tonight, 5/4 thereabouts.

That was brilliant odds on Sampdoria!.

Typical fashion that I self exclude myself and the main horse tipster I follow posted a 475-1 treble the week I quit!. I usually had a fiver on each horse and a quid or two on the treble.

Through form, I know that is mostly his luck done for a year or two so won't be going back anytime soon.

Was chatting Matty Tynan. Reckons he'll win if he breaks. I asked whats the chances of that and he said your guess is as good as mine. Hes got a pretty aggresive jockey on board though

Fiver down the drain haha. Didn't break well and from that showing isn't going to win a race any time soon.

Thanks for the heads up anyway, cant win them all.

Olympiakos could only manage a draw last night but I got some money back on D Zagreb and Slavia Prague.
I've gone for Boavista & Sassuolo tonight.

(Dutching is when you put your stake across both scores so it gives an even return on either.
For example if your stake was £20, and the 2-1 scoreline is 6/1 and the 1-2 scoreline is 9/1 you'd put around £8 on the 1-2 and around £12 on the 2-1)
2-1 to either team on the above example would return approximately a £60 profit.
In this market, you are looking for high percentages of BTTS probability and over 2.5 goals, obviously. Also, a fairly high probability of a first half goal.
If the game goes to 1-1 by the hour mark, you will have a pretty decent cash in option to take and walk away.
Have you been doing this one RARS and if so how is it going?

I've been keeping an eye on the Premier League games that are live on TV.

So far 26 games
10 have finished 2/1 or 1/2
A further 8 have finished in what would be a relative easy position to manually 'cash out' / trade
Leaving an additional 8 where there would probably only be a small chance to green up / break even.
  • Man Utd v Leicester City : 2-1
    Newcastle United v Spurs : 1-2
    Wolves v Everton : 2-2
    Liverpool v West Ham : 4-0
    Arsenal v Man City : 0-2
    Cardiff City v Newcastle United : 0-0
    Chelsea v Arsenal : 3-2
    Man City v Huddersfield Town : 6-1
    Brighton v Man Utd : 3-2
    Crystal Palace v Liverpool : 0-2
    Wolves v Man City : 1-1
    Liverpool v Brighton : 1-0
    Watford v Crystal Palace : 2-1
    Newcastle United v Chelsea : 1-2
    Man Utd v Spurs : 0-3
    Leicester City v Liverpool : 1-2
    Man City v Newcastle United : 2-1
    Cardiff City v Arsenal : 2-3
    Watford v Spurs : 2-1
    Spurs v Liverpool : 1-2
    Watford v Man Utd : 1-2
    Wolves v Burnley : 1-0
    Everton v West Ham : 1-3
    Southampton v Brighton : 2-2
    Fulham v Watford : 1-1
    Brighton v Spurs : 1-2
All a bit speculative in all honesty, but as a blind trade not the worst I've tracked so far.

Hi Polaroid,

I've not had enough time/funds to dedicate to researching and working with the above.

However, from the list you provided, I'd be interested in the win rate, had you filtered out the games that may not had matched certain criteria beforehand.
Such as any games that didn't match at least 2/3 at 60% rate of BTTS, FH goal or over 2.5

Doing it blind, however, 10/26 games - that hit rate would have turned an outstanding profit.

With likely profit to average around £80-£100 from flat £20 stake, dutched evenly across the two scorelines, from I think you're looking at a good £450-£500 profit.

Probably looking at about a 20% strike rate to return a profit (cashed in games notwithstanding) and this selection is well above that... around 38%

It is ALL about match selection to fine tune that S/R by using statistical research and can be an extremely profitable trade if you select the games correctly.

Even as a blind trade, so far this season on TV games, it's still a good money maker.
(And as you say, even the games that went to 2-0/0-2 or 1-1, you'd have a good chance to cash out with around 20-30mins to play) :thup:
