Shame on Ladbrokes, I say.
If they are not prepared to accommodate this type of bet i.e. singles on UNNAMED Favs, they should really not be calling themselves bookmakers.
A disgrace is the only word to describe it. If someone was betting up to a bank of 500K, they should still, as a plc, take the bets with a smile. They really ought to know that they cannot lose.
March 24, 2008 at 18:56 #153581Yes I agree the manageress said she had been monitoring his bets and he was classed as a ‘constant winner’.

Yes of course it could have done (the next bet would have been Bridge of Fermoy a winner @15/8) but I am operating it the same way as Mark does. He starts every day with a clean sheet as it were (i.e £5.00) In my case I am starting with a £10.00.rgds

March 30, 2008 at 10:16 #154541With a quarter of the year just about up it has made an average of £47.77 profit per day for the last 88 days.
I started on the best day to start January 1st.Although I did know about it last year.
The current profits allow 9 bets before any money would be needed from the original bank.There would stil be some profit to use so not all the bank would have been used.
The average run of races so far before a sole favourite has won has been 1.86.
There have been several occasions where an odds on winner has ended a losing run and this has ensured a loss on the day.
Yesterday was a good example with a 4/9 shot winning the 5th race but if that had gone on until the 8th race there would have been a massive profit as Boystrada was a 100/30 winning favourite.So £640 on would have made £2,112.00 and left a profit of £1,549. on the day instead of a loss of £39.48
If Artemis is correct in his assumption it could go for 2 years and 8 months on the current margins that is over £40,000 in forecasted profits.
What has suprised me is that the 2 filters I introduced do not work that well but they will I think end up in profit and there so far have not been that many races per day that would have caused me that much worry that I would lose my £2,500 bank in one day.
Mark uses a bank of £2,500 as already stated so he has a stop filter in place. So currently he would stop after 10 losers in a row as he does not have enough in the bank and winnings to continue.
I am suprised it has made this much to be honest but it could so easily have made much more it all depends on not having odds on chances around the 5th or 6th race. Much better to have them early on.
I have altered my view and now think overall using the two filters I have employed will now make me an overall profit.
As to Mark winning with his any clear favourite I remain open minded
P.S.
One furlongout are you actually doing these yourself?March 30, 2008 at 11:24 #154554This really must be the ultimate "Contrarian Selection Method". It performs best following a series of failures. In reality it is just high stakes gambling.
March 30, 2008 at 17:52 #154611This system is still going because the average price of favourites in the early part of the year has been lower than I anticipated. I thought it would be around 7/4, but it has been lower. Obviously, the shorter the price of the favourite, the less likelihood of a long and fatal losing run.
No-one can say for sure when the losing run that breaks the bank will occur, only that it will occur on average X days depending on the average price Y.
You can easily set up a model of this system using dice or playing cards or a roulette wheel. There is really no difference between the probability laws that apply to these and those that apply to horses. The model will show that such systems as these are only profitable to those who have an edge – namely, the casino or the bookmaker. You will not find any mathematician who would challenge the validity of this theory and its application to the system on this thread.
It’s very interesting, Seagull, and sporting of you to keep us all informed of the system’s progress.
March 31, 2008 at 04:29 #154663I will keep posting up the results as Im doing part of this anyway and I always keep full set of results with all bets I ever have.

April 1, 2008 at 05:48 #154831The total staked in the 81 days has been £6,522.00.
Thats just an average of £80.51 pence a day.The highest stake has been £1,280 on two occasions.
There has been a 69% strike rate so far of the stake not exceeding £10.00.
28 times (from 81 occasions) the fav has won the 1st race of the day.£5 stake
28 times (from 81 occasions) the fav has won the 2nd race.£10.00 stake.April 1, 2008 at 07:35 #154843Seagull,
I’ll skip the maths, but I’ve calculated that there is a 99.7% chance of the system failing in 137 days.
I had it all ready to post when I pressed the wrong key and It all vanished.
But that was the bottom line, so to speak.April 1, 2008 at 08:28 #154853This is interesting Artemis.
If you stopped the system on the 136th day and then carried on the 138th day could, you carry on for another 136 days in theory.
And no, I am not trying to be funny – just interested to hear from somebody that is astute in "maths".
