Place small bets on low odds

[noahsnana]

I had a few euro's left in my betathome account. It was about 8 euros. I started placing 2 euro bets on matches with very short odds 1.14, 1.50 no higher than that. I have over a period of a couple of weeks i have nearly 30 euros !!. I know some of you are hi rollers and will be rolling on the floor laughing at such small amounts but I am going to keep going for 12 months and I will let you all know how much I have made

will you list your bets beforehand?

The problem is that favourites do lose sometimes..... in fact they fail to win more than you would think. There have been many wise words on here such as you never get poor turning down a profit..... that is my particular favourite. If you make some money cash it in and of course if they keep winning PM me with your selections. Good luck anyway.

Wish you good luck.
But the problem is you can't (shouldn't) bet on BAH site alone.
You have to take the best possible prices to be upfront (and obviously your bets must be winners).
I once made such experiment with bonus on Winunited.
I tested some system and had a very good percentage of winners.
I compared Winunited's prices with Betfair and the best prices offered at the time I bet.
After 3 weeks I met WR and cashed out just 60% of the bonus (no lays at all - just pure €1 back bets). The same selections on BF would have produced 80% profit (after commission) and the best bookie prices would have given over 100%.
Taking the best possible odds is more important when you bet on shorties than on longer odds as the margin is much smaller.
But good luck, anyway.

Depends on who the prophet is...

A good experiment noahsnana, be interesting to see how it goes.

I should have said - I only bet on footbal matches. Out of 20 small bets only three lost. I am aiming to get my 10 euros up to a thousand euros. Why do my posts keep getting moved by the way ?Am I doing it wrong ?

[Human123]

do you have a staking plan in place to get to 1000 euros?

as that would take a very long time betting at small odds!

[noahsnana]

Erm I don't have a plan - should I have ? I just bet 2euros on short odd footie matches, and then when I have a bigger pot I might up it to 3 euros

Portugal are 1.09 to beat Cape Verde. Where is Cape Verde? That looks value to me (although this is all talk I am not backing it, never bet on friendlies, ever!)
