fuck off! My scottish football bets arent as bad as they appear on this website! My performance in two tipping comps on other sites can vouch for that, the £1000 first prize one on the ICT page Im a mod on is exclusively scots 123 and I'm one of only 3 people in profit for the year. Or I was until I stopped playing it a couple of weeks ago (the guy who is winning is bloody miles ahead, he went through a spell of getting draws up every week for literally 2 months!)
There was a really interesting thread on the BF forum a while ago, where a lad who was well respected a sa decent punter posted up his P/L totals and it revealed to everybody that his single backing on football was losing him alot of money, so whats the obvious thing that he did? He reversed the nets.
It was probably the stand out football topic in my last 2-3 years online, was a fascinating read but so simple, he would go out and do hours of research into finding the top bets for a weekend, teams he would decide could win on the handicap, ht/ft etc... then he would lay them
He started to show a small profit over the next couple of months, he was hated by the mugs on the forum for jinxing the 'value' bets. He was a hero to everybody else.
Backing a loser is easier, which is why the odds arent always in your favor, but a return is a return. I'm totally confident I can pick 9 out of 10 losers the greyhounds, I just dont have the bankroll to make it pay these days. In 2006 I went a month of winning £100 a day from laying dogs, very simple bets too, had £210 in my account and went all in 2 or 3 times a day, was very nervy the first week but after that I didnt care, as the withdrawn money was starting to appear in my bank faster than I could spend it. I used to feel like a right high flyer 'calling my bookie' from the pub, when I called BF from the bookies it always made the other folk there think I was just doing it on a whim and didnt care about the money, when the truth is I was up most of the previous night reading the cards and was just waiting for the prices!
I want to do it again, probably need about £400 in my bank to play with, when I'm more settled in work then I will give it a go, BetTrader is the savior of my gambling life!
I'm not spamming for BetTrader btw, its free.
Theres not many girls o nthe BF forum komp, mayeb you should get yourself down a
bingo hall or something
