This week saw me hit a new high of $80,000 before dropping $20,000 on Sunday thanks mostly to NBL and the late Soccer bets. If 4 and a half years ago I was told that I would lose $20,000 in a single day on numerous occasions, I would never have started. Now a loss like that has very little impact. I guess it’s like building a muscle, you keep hurting (tearing) it, but it rebuilds stronger than before. The same with these constant big losses, at first they hurt (A lot), but over time, each one hurts that little bit less. It’s a case of getting through that initial stage that hurts a hell of a lot, sadly most people give up and that’s why they don’t have the physique they want or the profit from betting they crave.
Before jumping into the results I’d like to mention the forum is now set up. It needs a lot of work (design wise), but you can join and start posting right now. I hope to see some great content come out of the forum and I hope some of us “old” guys can help out the newbies. Don’t be shy to post what you think is a stupid question, we all started at the beginning and none of us would be where we are without help along the way. I did receive some emails from people willing to moderate the forum, but what I will do for now is moderate it myself and see who are the most active members of the forum and I’ll tap them on the shoulder in the coming months and ask if they would like to take over moderating it. Go sign up now.
Onto the weeks results and the NBL had another disaster week with $11,800 lost and that means we are sitting on a loss for the season. This model is always going to have extremely high variance from season to season with only 20 rounds and maybe 100-150 bets per season. The NFL season ends in 2 weeks (and I’ll be there). This weeks playoff games returned $2,100. The NHL was up a heap early in the week but the last few days have been a disaster, it managed to make a $900 profit though.
ClubGOWI made $4,300 this week between official and unofficial plays. Even though I have paid for a year in advance, I am contemplating dropping the service as the odds recording (especially now with blue selections), has become even worse. As mentioned before though, it is a great resource for betting the opposite when the odds are pushed out, this week added $850 profit and after 50 picks (very small sample size), I am sitting on a 24.7% ROI. I am flat staking only $500 per bet on these, but the limits are very high on these markets.
Both Golf tipsters lost a combined $900 this week. Really hope I can get a few big winners soon, it’s been a real drain lately. Golf really is the perfect example of long term betting. Even with an edge, you can go a very very long time between drinks.
Onto the Soccer and we had the good and the bad this week. TFA was great with $7,700 profit and all 5 systems I follow are in profit for the season. The rest were pretty bad. The worst was Football Elite with 0 wins, 7 losses and a push for -$7,000. Football Value lost $1,000, Winabobatoo lost $2,000 and Football Investor lost $3,050.
Just one of those weeks really, These are always easier to take when you are giving back some of the profits. No idea why though, $10,000 is $10,000 every time. Don’t forget to join the forum. Until next week.
Total Loss for the week was $10,483.34
