Hi Guys,
Do we have the rules yet??
Is it 15% of the actual bank per week, or 15% on top of recovering last weeks losses when we take a hit. Are we doing one bet per week or a couple or more, what is the percentage of the bank to stake, all or half etc. If we are in a hole do we stop digging??? or try and fight our way out.
Donkey.  |

Right guys i have listed my starting thread individually in the betting blogs section check it out if you want
We can continue to use this thread for discussion i suppose for future chat and bet selectons the usual olbg threads
Regards to rules , I think it will take to long to set-up and i am in no competion with anyone while doing this ,although seeing others progress and the betting methods will help me and others i think
So i would say set your own one up keep it for yourself and not discussion and we will check in with each other on this thread to see how every one is getting on
i wont be chasing losses nor will i be using my full bank-roll in bets although the maxium amount i will use will depend on my bets
I would have made a better attempt to make this clearer and better set-up but due to a heavy drinking christmas and new year period i have not been up to it
hope a few of you join in
P.S. i lowered my weekly target to 7% as i have worked this out to be more practical to me personally _________________ 3rd in Copa America Comp

Well just thought i'd chuck a little update on this thread
Since starting this percentage per day / week / month i have done alright i have listed my bets down in the betting blogs sections and have hit my targets so far. although i am only on my second week i have found it fairly easy (touch wood) and have managed to hit my first week straight off in 7 days and second target in 3 days instead of 7 days without to much risk or greedyness
I have strayed into other sports betting markets with tennis , darts and snooker and have done well and the biggest bet i have made was a $10 bet on darts which i was looking to trade out of as soon as the small profit was there apart from that i put $6 on a real madrid game
so all in all i am really happy with this stratrgy and hope to continue making small profit weekly although i may add a lump sum to my stake to get me on my way to bigger money quickly
it will take me approx ten / eleven weeks to double my stakes but this will not be a source of income for this year but hopefully a nest egg at the end and the larger starting bank for next year as long as all goes well _________________ 3rd in Copa America Comp

good on you mate, good to see your efforts at setting a target and using lots of discipline to ensure you don't risk too much are going well.
keep it up and hope to see you double your bank in 10 weeks!  |

Another update to let people who are interested about the success i have been having with this % per week i have been using.
I have been keeping records of my bets in the betting blog section and although i can't always do it the bet selections are written down before the event is due to start to show i am not cheating / making it up.
bookmakers are also recorded to see who has been offering better prices
i have found myself using the odd arb bet which is usually found on the tennis matchs but also american football but these only bring in a small % it is worth while me doing them as it is guaranteed money
after i have completed the ten / eleven week trial and have successfully hit my target of doubling my initial stake i will be adding a lump sum , not quite sure how much yet but at the end of the year as long as everything has gone well i should have a nice sum of cash
which will add to my salary for next year letting me give up work but i wont jump the gun yet as my disciplne has played a key part in this slow but steady increase i have been making and who knows what is round the corner.
This has been far the most profitable system i have used in terms of return on investment _________________ 3rd in Copa America Comp

I have adjusted this year to percentage stakes... and it works for tennis traders.
2% a day is achievable imo but don't stick to it, just a rough guide something to look at for encouragement...
Patience is key and keeping to your rules.... BE DISCIPLINED! |

I broke a few rules last night to keep the 2% going. I went with my NAP to do it though.
And I'm back on course for my 2% year again
Darts and Tennis is the way to do it, football is like betting on a team of 11 dart players, too risky for me |

I started taking gambling seriously on the 14th of January with £100. Didn't have any rules... just went with my gut, finished the Aus Open with £500.
Then from the start of Feb, I've went for smaller gain, 2% a day theory from £500. I'm now on £1200 which is Day 45. When I should be on Day 28 not that I'm complaining
I want to ask people if this works with other sports? So far so good with tennis. |

Nice to see your doing well mate
I'm doing not that bad myself in the principle of making this system work
I'm on week 8 doing 7% a week and am closing in on my target of doubling my intial stake every 10 weeks
Allow it is a slow process as long as it all goes well from now until week 10 then i'll be adding a substanial cash sum to my bank and aiming to times it by 16 by the end of the year
so im on $200 by end of week 10 i'll add $800 to make a grand and times that to $16'000 by the end of the year
its slow way but very reliable i have found
been using tennis , football , darts don't seem to matter as long as you can pick a winner or two
Good luck for the future _________________ 3rd in Copa America Comp

| I like one on one player sports. And I don't lose alot when I'm watching a sport, I just get vibes who's going to win. That's probably why I do so well at grandslams |
