Thoughts for today.....

Well, an excellent day on the backing front with over 5 1/2 points profit on the day but not so good on the lay side of things. The trend lays recorded their first win today (hence loss for us), but at only 2/1 the damage on the day was limited to just over a point. Seeing how these lays have been doing the last few days, I'm not too worried about today's loss and still remain extremely happy with the way the system is going.
The place-lays, on the other hand are definitely not going to plan and this is very annoying as I had high hopes for this system. I know where I have gone wrong and I plan to rectify that as from tomorrow. I will keep all results as is and give the system until next weekend to prove its worth.
Until tomorrow then....

Thoughts for today...

Well a mixed bag of results today. It had the potential to be a terrible day, so under the circumstances I'm pretty happy with the way it turned out. Systems 1-6 gave a profit of 1.44 points and those of you who follow my thread on Punters Lounge will know these results are always collated together. I'm a bit disappointed with the 4,5,6 system today with two unplaced and the one winner at a very skinny 4/9.
The two lay systems are going OK. After a dodgy start the place-lays have picked up nicely and are now showing a profit and the trend lays are sitting pretty at 4/4 short priced lays turned over. Still early days yet but some promise there.

The place-laying system has thrown up a good few selections to get our teeth into but the 4,5,6 system is playing silly buggers me thinks by giving us a 2/5 shot in a 4 runner race! It counts towards the final results, obviously, but I think I'll swerve that particular one with my hard earned.
Anyway, here's hoping for another profitable day.

Another Little Something...

Something else I have tucked up my sleeve is a lay system which has nothing to do with any type of Massey ratings or reports. It's loosely trends based and as I love trends as well as stats I may as well start posting the selections here and will call them Trend Lays. Now, there may not be selections every day and I will not be divulging how I go about choosing the selections (yet!). Selections listed will NOT be a lay if the price drifts over 6.00 on the exchanges. For the sake of fairness, results will be taken at SP and converted to estimated betfair prices using Massey's odds analyser
Massey tells us that true decimal odds of 6.00 on the exchanges equates to 9/2. Obviously this is an average taken over 1000's of races analysed so for the sake of these selections, we will take maximum SP at 9/2.

So today's Trend Lays:

14:20 Leicester STRIKE FORCE

Place-laying System (Sun 12 Aug)

Right, lets see if we can get any of this lot racing today!

15:10 Redcar
16:10 Redcar
16:20 Leicester (only if it stays a 6 runner race)
16:50 Leicester


Don't forget it's CLEAR 3rd favourites to place-lay only. If an 8 or more runner race falls to 7 runners or less due to non-runners, withdrawals etc, then no bet as betfair still pays out on the three places.

Place-laying System

Well, that was a great start to this trial- not one selection qualified.

Ascot 15:30----------No bet. Reason: 2 jt 3rd favs
Newmarket 17:05----No bet. Reason: 4 Nr's reduced field to 6
Ayr 18:20-----------No bet. Reason: 2 Nr's reduced field to 7
Ayr 20:50-----------No bet: Reason: 2 jt 3rd favs


If a race has more than 8 runners betfair pays three places (4 places for handicaps over 16 runners). If a field is reduced to 7 runners or less due to non runners, withdrawals etc, betfair still pays out on the three places, so obviously in situations like this a bet is definitely a no-no.
This is one system that really excites me as I hold out high expectations for it. Time will obviously tell...

New Idea- Place-laying

Last year I toyed with a place-laying system with mixed results. They were mixed results profit wise, I think, due to the reason I wasn't betting them properly. By this I mean I came up with the stupid idea of martingaling my bets up to the first three races. If race one came in for me, well, hunky dory, that was me for the day. Obviously if I had to go to races two and (especially) three, liabilities started to rise dramatically as I wanted to cover my losses but also make my x amount for the day. I got caught out a couple of times and it hurt!
Now I've come to realise that if I had played level stakes or percentage betting I probably would have been well in. So what I've decided to do is give it another bash but with a twist.
Using the Massey favourite (and NOT the ratings) reports, I'm going to place-lay 3rd favourites that satisfy certain criteria that come out in the reports. Obviously this is just a trial at the moment and as I may not be around all the time to monitor the betfair prices I will use Masseys Odds Analyser to get my odds for the selections. Obviously if I'm around I will use the real price but will stipulate this in the results.

Right, today has thrown up these races, so the CLEAR 3rd favourite will be place-layed. If its not clear 3rd rated then no bet:

Ascot 15:30

Ayr 18:20

Football Tipping on Punter's Lounge

The PL organise a football tipping competition for members every season and I've been entered for the first time in the Conference A division. I'm going to post up my selections here every week as I've decided that I'm going to have a real flutter on them. Will be interesting to see the results over the course of the season!!

Right, my first selections for tomorrow are:

Aston Villa - Liverpool 2.00
Morecombe - Barnet 2.20
Raith - Berwick 1.53

(my selections in green)
