The unadventurous way to make small footie profits ....+£18.89 so far this season
 
Ok as the title suggests, i just look for premiership markets where both teams are odds against, and ignore the draw, and back both teams to level stakes. Never going to get rich doing this but you have a 66% chance of a profit, and its a rare occurence for me to lose money at the end of a season.
Will post up each weekends matches with current prices from Betdaq .

WEEK 1

QPR 2.07 v SWANSEA 4.1

READING 2.48 v STOKE 3.3

WEST HAM 2.29 v ASTON VILLA 3.6

NEWCASTLE 2.68 v TOTTENHAM 2.88

There are so many ways to make money from footbal betting...:cool:


I still like the goals galore bets where both teams have to score..


In the premier league last season a lot of games had goals from both teams and even the less fancied seemed to score against the bigger boys..


I think this is down to most premier teams having more attacking players then they do defensive ones..


I will be looking to land a few more of these throughout the season..

So in the FOOTBALL PREDICTIONS section i think we should all log our bets and see how we go..


I will start a thread for this...:loveme:

Stoke conceding late on let me down for the clean sweep today, so profit wise a modest start albeit a winning one .

What you know about football is there for all to see, delusional !!


In MON we trust :cool:

-------------------------------------------------


Anyhoooo, back on subject :hi:

I quite like the Goal Rush coupons on Ladbrokes, mentioned earlier I think, small trebles of "will both teams score" or "will both teams not score" but today my NAP of the day is Villa v Everton DRAW @ 12/5 - big history of draws between these two teams and 12/5 is a nice price, might have a little bit on 0-0 @ 9/1 best price with Ladbrokes.

Isnt that the truth ...anyone who says its easy to make money from football betting is talking out of their a$$....but long way to go with this and to be honest if i wasnt sticking with my betting criteria, after 5 weeks i would probably be £50 down instead of 50p :'D

Hello Dobie, I always enjoy following systems but what I don't understand with

This bet is as you are doing it on the exchanges is it not more likely to be

Profitable if you just lay the draw?

This is a fair point apart from the fact that i would have to adjust my stakes each bet according to how much i wanted my liabilities to be in each market ..this way i can stick to level stakes on each ...or am i missing the point altogether ?....plus if i have a bad week , the liabilities are almost certainly going to be greater than by using this method . So basically im disregarding greater profit, for reducing my liability.

Dobie2089 September 30th, 2012 11:12

A disappointing 3 from 5 results leaving us -£1.10

Running balance so far after 7 weeks -£6.19

Dobie2089 October 6th, 2012 08:01
