I greened and got my stake back at 22.0!

 

Nice work :good: I thought Mia's boy had it but it just got up :roll:

How do you green up, Tyls?

 

manually or via a betting bot?

Baily View placed 4th at the 18.05. 8.05 (7/1)

 

Nice one!

I use that bet trader that you posted the other day.

Twas a gutsy effort to get back up, I backed n laid Charm School for a few bob profit, (they came for it late).

 

I did back Bailey View (4th) also, win @ 42 and place @ 7.6 :good:

I seem to have run into a bit of form again recently.

 

Don't worry, it won't last! :D

 

Regular readers will tell you I have these phases and then I won't even be able to pick my own nose for a while.

Charlevoix 7:00, Yarmouth

Good shout, just got up on the line :yahoo:

We've been a bit unlucky the last couple of days IMO.

Yeah theres been a few that have been very close and come worst off. Theres still been plenty of winners on here though, been a decent few days and lets hope it keeps on like that. :)

Aegean Prince 20.00 came 2nd, Sri Kuantan pull quite a bit ahead. Not too good considering it was laying at about 9.00!

 

Still a wins a win, quality tips today pal thanks a lot!

I didn't lay Aegean Prince.

I don't lay anything over the 10.0 to 10.5 mark.

 

Laying at long odds is the quickest way to poor house and I'll explain why: (seeing as laying is how I make my living: the bets I put on here are just so I've got something to cheer home!)

 

Betfair Sp odds are always considerably higher than Bookie Sp: on average 5-10% at the lower end of the market, but it gets ridiculous at higher odds.

 

Aegean Prince was 14/1 with the bookies ie it should win once in 15 races. However the bookies adjust the book to guarantee a profit (fair enough IMO), si it was probably a 12/1 shot at worst, maybe 10/1. Let's assume it's a 12/1 shot, so it'll win once in 13 attempts on average.

 

So, each time it loses you make 1 point, less commission at 5%, leaves you with 0.95pts

12 losses at 0.95pts earns you 11.4pts.

But its betfair SP price tonight was 17.57, which would have cost you 16.57 pts.

 

So, over the 13 races where you should just about break even, you end up 5.17pts down.

So, don't be laying long shots.

 

Hope I haven't bored too many of you, I'm offto lie down in a darkened room: this is the longest post I've written on here without swearing, slagging someone off, taking the piss or being sarcastic.

I don't feel well!

Not the best of days today, I'm afraid.

2.20 Hereford: Candle 3rd

3.45 Punchestown: Ainama 6th & crap

4.55 Punchestown: Garde Champetre won: bet of the day

5.05 Folkestone: Special Reserve 2nd

5.30 Punchestown: Fiveforthree (my Irish friends tell me the money is down for this one!)won, as expected

6.05 Punchestown: Baily View (25/1 E/W) 4th :yahoo: :drinks:

6.40 Punchestown: Tatenen (as long as he doesn't fall again!) I know Forpadydeplasterer is a class horse, but if Tatenen runs to potential, it could be a cracker. a poor 5th: I didn't fancy the fav, but picked the wrong challenger!

 

Happy enough today, my 2 main picks won.

When the Irish lads say the money's down, the horse invariably wins.

Bent bastards. :roll:

Good piece of kit for nowt, isn't it?

 

If you do much laying I've a couple of free bots you can have too.

FAO Boothy and Gretar:

 

That place price on Baily View was ridiculously high, wasn't it?
