Long Overdue and out of Emegency Ward 10 with Luck

I’ve been meaning to write a new blog post for a long time but didn’t think you needed me to tell you how bad the service had been doing.

It felt like I was in intensive care and no one knew a cure !!

I built the bank back up from a previous crash to a point where we were in profit only for this summer to pull the rug and more from under our feet.

I’d like to say it was because I’d changed something, been a bit more extravagant with the odds but I hadn’t.

For whatever reason the systematic approach that built the bank up caused it to crash.

I believe in variance, but this was beyond that and I simply had no idea why.

I chopped and changed things to try and improve but it just wouldn’t happen.

I basically threw everything that I had been using out of the window and started again from scratch.

I retained some of the base principles, but this time introduced my own ratings into the equation.

Slight downside is that this has resulted in more selections becoming available so busier days.

I also introduced place laying by utilising the Top 2 or Top 3 Market of Betfair.

Again, this was because of my own ratings, and it offers better reward at times.

I’d like to say I fully understand why the tide has turned and we are moving in a positive direction again, but I don’t. I took a bit of a gamble using my own ratings and now it’s paid off.

However, I’m certainly not getting carried away given what has happened previously and continue to number/data crunch in case we reach a bumpy road once again.

I refunded members a month and tried to change the site subscription fee to £0 until we got it going in the right direction.

Unfortunately, the site didn’t like £0 and, in the end, I’ve settled for the new sum.

I’m actually happier with this price than the previous £25 which is a strange thing to say but I was guided elsewhere by that one.

The £25 is a move to me wanting to make money from people for what I would be doing anyway.

I’m not in it for that and the £10 covers basic costs and tools, along with my time to type up what I would already have written for myself.

On the place laying one thing that needs clarity is the BSP that I use.

I use the Betfair app on my phone on the day of the race to get the BSP place.

Generally, this matches the one on my results site.

Differences appear when I go outside the standard Betfair market and I then use the BSP that my own bet is shown as.

Thus, if the market would normally be 3 places but I use 2 places then the difference would occur.

Same applies for a 2-place market where I opt for 3 places.

The price cut off of 6.0 remains the same as does the maximum risk of £50.

Hopefully the current successful trend continues.
