Rule of 3 (Paper Trade)

[Junior Bettor]

Tried this a while back when I signed on to Bet365 (First betting site i joined up to)

the idea is, Take a bank, £10 for argument's sake, and bet is on an outcome. Repeat this 3 times, then, assuming you pick 3 winners, start again.

Ex.

Bet 1 - £10 @ 1.5 - Team A to beat Team B - £15 Returned
Bet 2 - £15 @ 1.3 - Team A to beat Team B - £19.50 Returned
Bet 3 - £19.50 @ 1.5 - Team A to beat Team B - £29.25 Returned

£19.25 Cleared Profit.

Then start again from £10.

I'm going to "paper trade" this for a while, to see if i can have success with it before doing it for real.

Bet 1 - £10 @ 1.67 - FC Koln to beat Kaiserslauten - Pending

Good luck sir

Any particular selection criteria? Are they all going to be football bets or across other sports?

[Junior Bettor]

Mostly football and NBA. No exact criteria, just things like form, league position and H2H's

[ONEDUNME]

Got ya. Here's hoping for a good start then

Bet 1 - £10.00 @ 1.67 - FC Koln to beat Kaiserslauten - Won - £16.70 Returned
Bet 2 - £16.70 @ 1.73 - Oxford Utd to beat Tonbridge Angels

[ONEDUNME]

So far, so good.

[Junior Bettor]

Not really..!!

Oxford game finished 0-0. Perhaps this isn't the way forwards.!

I'll try again tommorow.
