Im in a bit of a hole laying Scottie here. Think I'll leave it? Lots of golf left but not looking good

He tends to front run like Frankel too.

Not trading advice in any way...

He still looks a little low with some tricky holes coming up and the wind direction on the back 9 doesn't suit his game. He can't go much lower so might pay to reassess at the end of this round.

I mean there is a lot of golf left but he is still backable imo but the value of your investment may go up and down and you may not get any of your money etc

Yeah I'll leave it. Lazy "trade" really. Feels more like a bet. Hoping for a hiccup with no stats to prove doesn't seem like the most profitable strategy

You will need a double from him today really if you left it as it is. But then I am a backer not a layer so I am not the best person to advise on laying though it's the other side of the same coin... etc

It's how accurately you can predict what his true odds should be whether it pays to leave it or not.

Personally it's why I always try to exit at just above fair odds where possible rather than leave value bets in the market.

We're probably the other side of each others bets quite a lot I'd imagine.

Nah. Just a hobby on the exchange as I can fiddle too much pressing buttons. Make my money elsewhere on bet and forget. ie can't fiddle once the money is down.

Would be worthwhile to pay someone to execute my reads on Betfair or maybe automation..

Weather has been too good today for any major slips.

My stats say a 4 shot leader into the last day should be priced around 1.20
