I do actually, what can you teach a complete newbie in 5 hours? Even if you try there's a limit to how much information you can take in in such a short space of time.
Ah I dunno Derek, if you took someone who was open to learning without the preconceptions of 1000s a week or other Lukeisms, in other words a complete beginner, they'd be able to learn quite a bit about horse trading specifically if they were presented with a compilation of;

1) What a back bet is, what a lay bet is
2) Betting v betting exchanges, overrounds etc
3) What a trade actually is on the exchange
4) The mathematics of the trade
5) Explanation of scalping and swinging

i) Break time - cut scene to the end of the film Trading Places where they're all going batshit crazy on the trading floor. Missed Jamie Lee Curtis getting her baps out. :o Don't worry, if you get this shit, there will be better and perkier titties out there for you! :lol:

6) Scalping example, explanation that it's tick by tick and millions won't be made in one race, it's progressive.
7) Swinging example, explanation that it could be a horse not wanting to load in the stalls plummeting its price, or a big stake shortening a runner. Could be even the pundits giving their view on Horse X being out of his depth, a class ahead of the opposition etc. Leading into..
8) Live pictures. No point having a live picture view if you're on ATR/SkyRacing and the race started before your trade got closed!
9) Bankroll management, don't be getting ahead of yourself, that's how many successful gamblers and traders fail.
10) Small stakes first. Don't think because something worked well in BetAngel practice mode for 5 weeks that it's gonna work the same way in real life, minimum stakes MUST be used until your initial bank is covered.

ii) End of course - cut scene to the film Swordfish where Halle "Burry" (so many filters to stop saying Halle or cant surname! :lol: :lol: ) has her baps out. It's something to do with maths or numbers ;)

Could easily do that in 5 hours and give someone a fair knowledge. and titties. yeah that was an edit

If Psychoff pinches your curriculum charge him for it. ;)

I could only compare it to me spending £1000 on a set of professional golf clubs. Learn to play the game first, see if you have any potential before spending that sort of money.

When I attended a Betfair seminar they gave me a copy of Betfair For Dummies, probably cost £4.99. They could easily save themselves £995 and probably get more out of it as any advanced techniques would be wasted on a newbie. Come to think of it, it's like teaching advanced sexual techniques to a class of virgins. :lol:

I'm sure Psychoff will be crying himself to sleep every night because of all this criticism from most people on here and all the haters on social media :D

Cann Berry said that Pyschoff had sold out the advanced course and only had a few spots left on the beginner course.

Strange when I type Cann's name it comes up as Cann Trade instead of Cann Berry.

It's the word filter that's set up that way.

Bodger = Badger
Caaan Berrry = Caan Berry
Gook Toy = Geek Toy

I'm lost Foxy, is that lyrics to a song or something?
The words looked a bit similar to Faith No More songs then I remembered they're playing in Punchestown at Sunstroke in June and it reminded me to get my ticket :lol: 20+ years since I was at a Sunstroke gig, my first ever. Soundgarden headlined and White Zombie on before them. White Zombies live show was absolute crap though.

Anyway back on topic, if Psychoff is doing the course for visa reasons then I say all the best to him. He's doing something which may be productive for some of his customers, it could be a light bulb moment for some that actually get it and can make a few quid, or it could be a light bulb moment for the Lukes of the trading world that they're not cut out for it and should knock it on the head and stop wasting their time and money.
The man is providing a service, paying tax, that tax pays for the hospitals and fire brigades and the people that take the 999 calls when you need them, a contributing member of society. Fair dues to the man.

Bodger = Old Centaur employee
Caaan Berrry = cant trade
Gook Toy = other software
Inb4 Psychoff is added to the list as Turkish Delight

Until that time comes it should be okay to enjoy a dank meme or two.

...having spent the last few hours having a few beers in my neighbour's man cave :shock: with 2 very successful entrepreneurs,(from what I can can tell they took a risk, lived hard and honest, retained their integrity and then made a fortune) I can only say: fair play to them. I learnt more than a little as I always do when I spend time with people like that.Luckily that only cost me a couple of beers. Generally things , in my opinion, are worth what people are prepared to pay for them though.

If this Corona pandemic breaks like my (genius) microbiologist wife thinks it will..perhaps our perception of value will change..perhaps we will see the positive in humility more than value the negative in greed.Perhaps we will truly give it away and help people without thought of ourselves.Then again,perhaps not :) .
If I had the money I would pay to humbly listen to Psychoff. I believe positive outlay comes back positively. The master is the student and the student is the master and all that

It's a bit harsh filtering out his first name. There might be another Caan joining here. :lol:

I do agree that the mods seem to be trolling a bit too much for my liking, I mean what if we want to have a serious discussion about Halle Berry or honey badgers? It's practically impossible I tell you.

Yep, the beginning part to the song.

It was Turkey's Eurovision song contest entry in 2004.....finished 4th. Athena (For Real)
