£16m a year is absolute peanuts for a pro.

I know of him, but never met him and never seen him at any events. Though I know he did a joint course with Tony Hargraves, so that pulled his reputation down a notch.

turnover must be in settled markets rather than individual bets i assume?
if so thats more than 300k a week isnt it? more than 400k betfair points with the decay how is it peanuts or you are joking?

He's talking turnover - the total of bets placed, not profit.

[rik]

well thats a useless stat, can have turnover 1000times bigger than net

£16m a year in turnover would put you nowhere near the top three. It's just bullshit.

That's the fella.

According the the LinkedIn page....

Using my IT skills I have produced automated solutions that process large volumes of live data which identify certain information that I then use to make informed trading decisions.
Using automated XML and API feeds I examine pre-event data to identify market inefficiencies for trading opportunities. Use my data to identify statistically incorrect pre-event and in-play markets based on probability,time and currently known information.

What we do doesn't half sound fancy when it's worded nicely

A few months ago i spent a little time trying to see if I could spot his bots at work on their martingales in the Greyhound markets - looking to pounce when they'd had a long losing run - but i couldn't spot anything - possibly because the users never really managed to scale up enough to matter.
