Hi,

just wondering if anyone uses the system of doubling up or increasing the amount they bet if they lose a trade i.e

you trade using amounts of £2 and you are trying to make a profit of say £3 but it doesn't work out and you trade out for say a £2 lose.

on the next event you can double up and trade with amounts of £4 and if your trade works right this time you will make a profit of £6 minus the £2 the lost on the first trade which gives you a profit of £4.

does anyone use this type of system? i'm sure there is a name for it but can't remember.

i can see the point of not doubling up as it ends up a fortune if you dont get a winning trade, but what about small increases i.e trading with £2 then going up to £2.20 and keep increasing by 10% each time?

yeah its here ,,great work mugs,,where is the ejjit anyway ? :( this is worth the repost,,
Sfarad - Thanks for your PM. I'd rather reply on the forum.

If you think this will work and you disagree. Carry on with it. I will never be party to the most crazy and idiotic plan ever dreamt up.

It's not worth any effort at all trying to persuade you, it's obvious you know better than me.

Seriously, what's your stake size? say £5.
Bet 1 £5
Bet 2 £10
Bet 3 £20
Bet 4 £40
Bet 5 £80
Bet 6 £160
Bet 7 £320 is your arse twitching yet?
Bet 8 £640
Bet 9 £1280
Bet 10 2560
Bet 11 £5120
bet 12 £10240 - are you sure of getting matched?
Bet 13£20480 - Do you have this much to bet with?
Bet 14 £40960 - Are you still here?
Bet 15 £81920 - Pass me the rope
Bet 16 £163,840 - Just sold the house
Bet 17 £327,680 - The wife has took the kids and left
Bet 18 £655,360 - Past caring
Bet 19 Betfair crashes and the favourite wins - back to square 1
Bet 20 1.3 mill

Did I mention that last year there was a sequence of 23 winning favs, all to win a fiver. Behave yourself please.

Not trying to be smart fella, just trying to let you see what a crazy idea it is.
