    If you guys want a bit of fun how about you do this. Put 1000 pounds of real money into a Betfair account each and bet however you like and see who comes out on top.

    No prize just fun but real dosh.

    Any idiot can post bets when there’s no pressure on and yes you will most likely show a profit but betting with real money is not the same.

    To ensure no cheating a simple video showing bets and balance does the trick and there’s nothing easier than hiding your name and account number. There are guys who put them up on you-tube to prove they are successful and on at least one other forum I joined last year. So Ginger’s You’d need to be mad to show anyone your account does not hold water as all you need is some masking tape to hide private details.

    Even if you are late posting it doesn’t matter as you have the proof you backed the horse and it shows up on your balance.

    If you try change something using photoshop I can spot that a mile off.

    I blew the 2 k I put in on some mule 2 days ago but I’m puting another grand in to continue my dutching only this time actual prices I take will be posted not sp and I’ll be happy to post videos If I happen to win and someone says I don’t believe you……..doing what I have been doing it’s way too difficult to get the posts in in time place it seems every evening my time the damn site goes wonky.

    I still think Ginger is very good at what he does but would he actually back these selections with hard cash be down 5k and keep going? Me thinks not and neither would anyone else.

    Thing about gambling is if you can start small and build on it if you are so sure you have the skill to win then you’ll never lose much…….you might never win much either but you are betting within your means.

    I could post selections today and say I am backing these but I’d be lying to myself and fooling no one as the account for Dutching is empty :( ………..You sticking up fictitious 10k’s Gord will prove nothing because you are under absolutely no pressure…….you stick in 10k of real money and the ass will fall out of your trousers and your views on a race will be different.

    My mate did a spreadsheet and played on Betfair with ficticous money as anyone can do and boasted he’d have won 30k in a month laying horses if it had been real money then he stuck in 5 k and blew the lot in 12 days……just not the same.

    Yeah I’ve seen – but there are many ways to skin a cat as they say!

    If its selections u want then my one for today is Cosimo De Medici – 25-1 for the Cesarewitch. And just to apply a little of Ginge’s logic…Stormy Weather and Western Prize are the savers lol.

    Come on guys, I’m all for entertainment and banter but ur both a little long in the tooth to be fighting with yer handbags! :)

    Fist,
    I suggest you buy an old book on ebay called "Betting The Timeform Way". It will tell you what losing run a punter can expect.

    "The higher a backer’s percentage of winners, the longer the odds against a losing run of say 20 consecutive losers in a given number of bets".

    50%SR, 20 losers average starts every 2097152 runs.
    40%SR, 20 losers avg 68378 runs.
    33.33%SR, 20 losers avg 9976 runs.
    30%SR, 4178.
    25%SR, 1261.
    20%SR, 434.
    16.67%SR 230.


    etc. etc.

    So however good a punter’s strike rate is he/she will inevitably go through a long losing run at some point or other. ie Punters need to decide for themselves how much risk they want to take that a losing run does not come in the first throws of following a tipster / or indeed from his/her own form study. Sorry Fist, your belief that doing things your way will not produce a long losing run is flawed. As TAPK can confirm. :wink:
