In play Betting Diary Challenge 2022

Because to me , out of 10 games, I’d expect Man City to win 4- 5 against Chelsea, maybe 6 at a stretch.

So you're basically saying that City had between a 1.67 and 2.5 chance! If you're serious about betting (you're betting, not trading) you have to narrow it down far more than that.

If you're really profitable I think I'll let my cat loose on my trading keyboard.

I did narrow it down, I wrote earlier than fair odds in my opinion are 2. And that’s why I laid at 1.64.

Those aren't trades, they're single bets.

OTE, hit the pause button and perhaps consider the stop button.

What are you trying to achieve? This is not a tipsters forum and it's not a good place to keep a diary of your fantasy betting thoughts (do that in your own google doc). Nothing special is developing here. The day won't arrive where you publish your public bitcoin address and we all donate to keep you posting. We won't be subscribing when you launch your tipster service. No one is wondering about your dimensions so we can build you a monument. You are contributing nothing, other than the mildest of amusement (but we've got the jokes thread for that already).

I know that you are thinking up a reply to my earlier tirade. Perhaps concentrate on that, rather than spewing forth meaningless drivel onto the forum.

[Derek27]

Do you think anyone's actually interested in your bets? Why not just post your account statement, save yourself the bother of typing them out and anyone interested can spend the evening or weekend reading 50-odd pages of your bets?

Would you like me to post a week worth or are you bored already?

What is so meaningless about what I wrote?

Ask yourself this - is there anything meaningful in what you wrote. As Derek has neatly shown, your bet history is not interesting.

Let me look at my premium charge portal (don't be alarmed OTE, it won't be a concept that you will need to worry about). Should we go over the bet by bet history together?

If you really want some help take some time to read this - viewtopic.php?p=265873#p265873 If you can comprehend what is written therein you might start a different thread, perhaps something with some real value.

Gazuty thanks for providing that link. I had a quick look. It looks impressive and useful for someone who’s just discovered betting / trading recently. But for me it’s not the first day or week, or even first year of looking at exchanges.

I am not asking for help. If I did, I’d clearly state this this myself.

You may not find it interesting. Someone else might.

I was going to say exactly what Gazuty said. You've got a habit of getting things the wrong way round.

Here's an example of something meaningful:-

500 bets, total stake: £2,400; total return: £2,900; gross profit: £500; commission: £58; net profit: £442. This suggests I'm getting value and can profit from betting.

And here's an example of something meaningless:-

Bets: haven't counted
Winners: a lot
Losers: a few here and there
Profit: fuck knows
Achievement: nothing to the contary

You may not find it interesting. Someone else might.

You'd make a great guest at a dinner party. Reading an account statement is like reading a telephone directory!

That’s your opinion. Someone else will have a different one.

Nothing you've said gives any indication you have progressed beyond novice stage. Some people can spend years playing golf but only 50 people make the cut at the US masters each year.
