GOOD NEWS!!!
Once I have bet the last of my bank on this thread Im fully intending that to be my last involvement with gambling forums for the rest of my life.
Its true that Im currently posting on another forum concerning these bets but its not a gambling forum and I don't intend to be posting there next season.
I sincerely don't think gambling forums are the best place or way to go about telling people about these bets.And for more than one reason.Several reasons in fact .And I very much want and intend to get about 300 people to take up these bets on a serious basis in the next 2-3 years ideally.
(I have already explained why on another thread but if you don't buy that explanation the fact is Ive always been extremely curious to know how other people would do these bets and whether the market would be affected in any way.I believe the market would be unaafected for various reasons but a friend of mine believes bookies would be forced to place many more restrictions.
Its true that it could cause the bookies some headaches.Let me give an example.Bet 365 have very low max payouts for certain lower leagues and any group of people suspected of collusion would be restricted in theory to this low limit max payout.
BUT that would be very hard to do without affecting perfectly innocent people who may have only included one or two similar selections in their bets.Thats a very simple example.There are other situations Id love to see.
Theres also finding out whether I was right about these bets. Can ANYONE really do these bets.If they are in fact easier than other betting on football then much of the info on gambling forums would be rendered er out of date.
But I accept that its unlikely anyone would realize so effectively it probably wont make a difference.
No harm in trying to find out though.
I also don't ever want to be accused of 'boasting' ever again and I don't see how its possible to get people on gambling forums to take them seriously unless I did thread after thread all of which made good profits.
The point being that surely THAT would constitute 'showing off'!? I really cant see why 'showing off' is ok but mentioning previous wins is considered beyond the pale/pail(?).Especially as no one ever believes the latter anyway.But hey
A friend of mine pointed out to me that if you think about it theres really only one way to get the message across to sufficient people WITHOUT being accused of boasting. And thus with his help that's what we are going to do.
However,the really great thing is that now that Thundercelt is doing a thread and is likely to be successful we need not argue about wherther Im right about it being hard to get the message across on gambling forums with one hand tied behind your back as it were.
Because we will now all get to see whether TCs thread gets people interested in these bets AND crucially doing them in preference to other bets.
I believe theres next to no chance of that happening because apart from anything else I think people need to understand WHY or HOW bets make a profit befiore they can bet confidently.
Because betting isn't JUST about opinions.Oh no.Its about how confident you are in your opinions.And where that confidence came from.
ANYWAY,we shall see what we shall see but I wont be holding my breath
Now,having said all that.WHAT IF THIS THREAD SHOULD LOSE!!??
Iwont be here to say anything so I will say something now.
The really really great thing about the wonderful Land of (Bet)Nod is that its different to other betting forums! Yep.
See,on any other forum,if I lost, I would be told that of course these bets aren't profitable.Its really stuuuuuuupid to think they could be.And Id have some mathematician explaining the maths to me like Im some idiot.Yadda yadda yadda.
But not here!NOT HERE.No Sir!!
Here, ALL they would do is say that I ,hotspur,dont know how to do the bets.
Much much less of an insult.
Because of course I would simply be being told that I don't know how to do something that vitually no serious gambler believes is possible anyway.
That would pretty much be the kindest thing anyones ever said to me on here.
But anyway...Im going to PROVE right now that,no matter what happens,I know HOW to do these bets!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WHAT!!!!? How can that be possible hotspur,you may be thinking(or not)! Simples.Here goes nothing.......
There are only really 3 ways you can lose at gambling.Yes?
Bad selectons,bad luck or taking too much risk.Yes?
Well, if this thread loses it will almost certainly be by a very very fine margin.Maybe a single point or one goal even.
THUS you cant really say its the selections.Not if I lose by a tiny margin.Not without looking like a cunt anyway.
So that leaves RISK.(I cant be bothered with luck).
And so the way to do these bets is........................................................................................drumroll.........
Take less risk.
TADDAHHHHH.
Okie dokie.Well that was easy.Hope to be back with todays crucial bets.
What? Why didn't I take less risk in the first place you arrogant cunt,you ask?
Well,quite simply,thats how I bet 1000 pounds.I will happily risk 300 or even more for a chance to win 1000 or more.
And in reality I would add about 200 to my bank at this stage in order to hedge certain postions that are clearly very strong.
Not to do so would be daft but on gambling forums there are people who think that risking your bank or adding to it artificially are against the 'rules' of gambling.
But ,apart from bookies/legal rulesthere are no rules in gambling..
.......in fact there is no right or wrong way to gamble........
from the book by Joseph Buwolski(sic)who has been mentioned in glowing terms on this very forum and who used to post on PL
Not only do I believe that antepost accas are the best way for most people to bet on football,I also believe that the best way to use them is by taking calculated risks.
If you are gonna hedge the fuck out of them I think youd be better off sticking to singles. I really do
