Smart Bash - did anyone go?
Only thing that would've interested me is the social side but I'm not willing to pay £400 for the privilege plus the travel/accommodation.
Smart Bash
The images from the event seemed to imply that lots agreed with you. Planning it in the middle of Wimbledon and on British Grand Prix weekend, obviously wasn't a hit.
I've had the occasional dialogue with the organisers, and would have attended if asked (and on better dates). But invites are thin on the ground it seems for the likes of people like me.
As the trading and serious betting community is so poorly served, I'm starting to think I should do something about it.

This sort of thing is usually just a circle jerk.
I'd be up for a social event, though, a chance to mingle. Get a sponsor or two to help fund it.
I think the problem with a lot of events that promise to offer insight in return for cash, is that they rarely hit the mark.

I imagine it was pretty surface-level stuff tbh - property seminar vibes.
Take Tom Dry. Did he get into the nitty-gritty of how he built his tennis model? Probably not. More likely he focused on the wonders of psychology (which, he did (I promise I didn’t peek first)
The reality is guys like him are only useful in a 1-on-1; assuming his backers even allow it. What I want to hear is: how he thinks about edge development, how the market has evolved since he started, how he adapts - not how he handles nerves when laying Raducanu.
Honestly, forums like this are seriously underrated for building real connections. There's no need for pricey events. I’d much rather a solid DM convo with someone serious than pay £400 for a ticket and hope I get lucky with a chat in the hotel bar.
