It seems all I needed to do to get some extra visitors was to get mentioned on a popular site. Cassini at Green All Over replied to my blog post about his service and had some nice things to say about me.
Blimey! The pressure is on. Why I haven’t had a go at Daily25 is because I admire the sensible approach the author demonstrates. In fact, some of his thoughts there could have been written by me. Unfortunately the Under 2.5 Classic plus Extended are down 0.43 points so far this season, with the draws up just 1.15 points, with the most profitable markets I am following currently being the HT0-0. I expect these differences to close as the season continues, but meanwhile, the portfolio approach seems to work well for Mr Daily. Check his blog out. After two plus years, he has some sound advice – and I suspect his posts will not vanish when a setback is experienced! His mission statement is to “Make $250 per day with sports betting” (Australian dollars) which is about £160 a day. This isn’t a goal as such, but for anyone doing this full-time, that total should be achievable as a long-term daily average.
He talks highly of me, but the man has a very poor read of people, haha. To any visitors coming from Green All Over, sadly this site isn’t going to offer you much as I only post once a week and it’s just my profit or loss for that week. If your interested in following that, then come back each Tuesday or follow the RSS feed. I occasionally might say something worthwhile, but thats very rare.
Now last week I wrote why I really liked the XX Draws and off course this is the week they underperformed. $2,700 lost for the week and that brings them slightly above 1 unit profit for the season. It’s a long long season and with a few hundred more bets to go, I won’t be complaining just yet.
In other Soccer news this week, FB Elite continues his nice form with 1 from 1 for $2,000 profit. FB Investor lost $500. Skeeve the maniac/genius decided to pick nothing but draws this week in every single Blue Sq game and came up with close to $2,500 profit. FB Analyst also continued his great start to the season with another $2,800 profit. I believe all his systems combined are about break even for the season, so my portfolio of his models are showing how smart and intelligent, and therefore also how good looking I am.
Onto other sports and AFL continued its great end of season run, just 1 more week to go. I will miss AFL, it went through a bad patch when I upped my stakes, but it has been a great source of profit for me over the year. A full report will be available next week on the season. Tennis continues to under perform and I’m hoping for that inevitable brilliant week that brings me back into profit for the year.
Horse Racing went crap with over $5,000 lost. Back to negative for the last 3 months and it’s looking unlikely that I’ll renew my subs in November, even though I’m still up about $30,000 for the season which is a ROC of over 100%. I have listed the reasons numerous times and things are just getting worse. It is going to be a tough decision, but I am leaning towards stopping it in November.
That’s pretty much it for the week, a stable $1,600 profit, nothing to shout about, but it isn’t a loss. A very poor first 3 months of the new betting year with a ROI of just 0.34% and a total ROI over the 2 years and 3 months of 1.84%.
