LG, why would you be in this caper with a target of less that 100% ??? Small returns are for superannuation funds where you have the privelege of paying fundies, governments, brokers and the rest of the hangers on !!!! Horse racing gambling is set up to achieve 100% returns.

Beton, I was reading your thread "Staggered lay the field", but it stopped abruptly on the 11th of June 2012, without the final chapter being published. Are you currently laying the field using a staggered stake regime or just laying the field or part thereof based on max odds filter? Did you end up laying to liability or fixed bet? Did you fully automate it or take Mark's advice and try and frame a field to achieve better than 90%? Good to hear it's going well for you, if after a year since your original thread, you're advising Benny it's the path to walk down.

The greatest bugbear is the rollercoaster ride. I restrict the field. I also have a minimum fieldsize. I broke the bank a couple of times before getting in front and staying there. I started with $30 liability and ratcheted up. You lose 1 week in 4 and if you lose two weeks in four then you lose that month. I have lost 2 months in a row then had 5 winning months. People will stop after one losing streak.

Congrats on your persistence, that takes guts and a lot of faith in your system

how do i lay the field

put your bank in a real bank ( hopefully at high interest) and get a job.

else that plane that you mention will be banking all right - straight into the side of a hill.


seriously it is impossible to double a bank every month.

maybe once every now and then -but long term forget it.


the best professional is happy with long term 5% POT.
forget all this other rubbish about 20%+ POT and all that - it is **** and back data fitting.

At 5% daily POT and betting 10% of your bank per day you will make $2.5 per day and thus $75 per month.

That my friend is as good as it gets and you can take that to the bank.

well if that's the case why did you ask the original question - on the basis of 3-4 races per day you are already doubling your bank in 10 days.

A genius of a scale that we have never seen before.
