$2.13 million bet in 286 days. That’s an average of $7,450 bet per day and $126 profit per day at 1.7% POT. Sadly this last $1.1 million has resulted in a loss of $9,615. A few things can account for the loss. Firstly an $11,000 loss is directly attributed to the mens tennis model having an error during the Australian open. Since then the model has made a bit of those losses back but not all of them. Still many weeks left in the Tennis season and I still hope to see a nice gain at the end of the year. Another $12,800 loss was due to me following free tipsters, a silly mistake which I wont be making again. So almost 24k lost due to mistakes which were half mine. The next $1 million bet will concentrate on consolidating my current portfolio of models and I will think long and hard before adding anything new. My goal is to be betting on average $10,000 a day and making between 2-5% ROI. This should see a yearly profit of between $73,000 and $182,500. Any number between those figures would be more then satisfactory. A graph of the profits can be seen at the end of this post.
Onto this past week.
A whole month of profit, albeit a very small one this week. At one stage the total profit was at $44,000 and with a good weekend of AFL I thought it would hit the highest ever profit. But the amazing run of AFL had to end some time and it was this week. But a bad week in AFL equlas a loss of $900. Baseball also had a small loss for the week. Soccer continues its dismal end of season form, If only I had taken my own advice and stopped betting it weeks ago, I would be in the high $40k profit area. As mentioned, this first year is all about learning things and getting as much data as possible, so I will see out the season. Tennis again had a terrible week with $5,200 lost. These changes of surface and betting on players who are not confident on the different surface has been very poor. Hoping for a few major upsets this week. NRL had it’s first winning week, and NHL also had a winning week in its final week before play-offs. FB Elite managed to string some wins together in the soccer which was a welcome bonus.
I mentioned last week that I had little doubt that Formbet would return to profit by the end of this month. It beat that by almost 20 days. A truly incredible run (including a $2800 win I missed), the week showed a total profit of $7,700. I’m still yet to have a week where everything clicks and all the models perform extremely well, but when that week comes, it will give a massive boost to my profits and my confidence.
