My "magic £20" system

frank_owen · #1 (**permalink**) 13-03-2006, 05:57

I thought this one up and plan to try it out as from today. I start the week with my £20 and try to turn it into a £50 for the weekend, at the weekend I will make a couple of big bets (depending on how much i've made, if any), on the Sunday night I will check my funds and withdraw everything i've made, leaving only the "magic £20" to start again on Monday. The idea is to try and preserve the £20 that could make me £30-£40 pounds a week profit. Although probably sometimes i'll lose my £20 and need to stick a new one in for next Monday. If I lose my £20 before the weekend then i'll just wait til the next Monday and start again.

I will be using Betfair, betting on single matches. I will probably place a couple tonight once i've had a look, keep your eyes open :drums

Cracking idea Frank and I've decided to join you in your quest (hope you don't mind!).

Tonight to me seems berift of suitable betting opportunities. I'm taking a chance using the stats of www.betexplorer.com and betting on Portugeezer soccer and taking Braga to beat Belenenses away. I've got 2.5 and 2.48 matched at betfair for $2 and $3 respectively.

I anticipate this bet being a tight one and fully expect to be whacking the remaining 15 quid on a non-league single tomorrow.

Thanks for the inspiration Frank and best of luck with your pick. My record in the R&R forum is absolutely diabolical btw..

I like it. Hope you don't mind if I join in

AMP, Braga are 6/4 on bet365 by the way but it's too late to help you now.

My first bet will be Palace to win at Stoke tonight. 13/10 at sportingodds.
5 points staked.

That's £5 in old money. Sorry I forgot we were working in cash

Don't ask me ODm - ask Frank!

My bastid keyboard hasn't got a pound sign, only dollars. Boooh.

Yeah, right after I took that 2.5 for two quid up pops seven more popped up!

Still, for the 10p or so it doesn't make too much of a difference...

Glad to have some punters as fellow guinea pigs on this one

Tonight I think i'll make a slow cautious start, the fixture card looks a bit beefier on Tuesday on Wednesday so i'll go for a low risk teaser.

Monday 13th

£3 on Stoke v Crystal Palace @ 2.34 = £4.02

£3 on 1860 Munich v Bochum @ 3.1 = £6.30

Good luck chaps

Mine neither AMP. Hold down Alt and press 0163 on the numeric keypad. If it doesn't work, switch Num Lock on or off (the opposite to what it is when it's not working, obviously).

Well I will join in aswell if i may -

20 quid pot -
1 quid on Hoefkins to score first 18/1
1 quid on Preston 4/5
1 quid on Oldham 7/5
1 on Wrexham 7/4
1 quid on over 2.5 in Stoke game

15 quid left

Stoke 1-3 Crystal Palace

1860 Munich 0-1 Bochum

A humble, but succesful start, funds £30.04

A cracking start that Frank.

My bet unsurprisingly went down 2-0 so I've got £15 left. Quality RC - that worked then!

Never fear - Non-league action is here.

This bet could see AMP depart the action in only the second day of competition.

I spanked all 15 quid on Cambridge City tonight away to Storford at 2.24 on Betfair.

With ODM on 26.50'ish I'm playing catch-up. Welcome to JBG who also got a winner in the overs bet I see. Damn, i'm gonna finish last...

Hard lines A.M.P, i've been eyeing up Hereford tonight, Inter, Preston and Grimsby are also an option, i'll have a think about it at work today and place a bet when I get home

frank_owen · #13 (**permalink**) 14-03-2006, 14:58

jbgb007uk · #14 (**permalink**) 14-03-2006, 16:03
