Big Mikes Thursday Thoughts and Live Blog Bet

Thursday, July 30th, 2009

Third Test starts today (weather permitting) and after the really crazy moves seen on the Draw line already we should hopefully see huge swings DURING the Test. The lay at 174 I suppose wasnt as cleverly timed as others (Draw line now to 156) but even so it was a good lay as the price did shoot up this morning at one time to 193.

If new to Trading – give this Test Match a go – even to a proportion of my stakes. I have members who bet to 10 x my stakes and I am happy to accommodate members who want to Trade at 10% of my stakes. Its a learning curve but I think you will enjoy.

I will make the Trades via the Forum/Board so keep your eyes skinned for suggested moves. Remember the plan is not to guess the result – its to attempt to have GREEN on Betfair on the Final result.

Time off. For your notice in advance. I will not be able to trade between 430pm and stumps on Friday (Salford are at home) and on Sunday between 430pm and stumps as I am taking the family to Gawsworth Hall to see the Ukelele Orchestra of Great Britain. Prior engagements so if the big swings come in these periods then I apologise in advance.

Third Test position is :-

E 0
A 0
D +13

Another Nice winning double yesterday (5 now in just a few days so happier with the situation) and I feel a bit short-changed by VCbet who offered BOG and 1/4 odds on Rip Van Winkle and I was paid out at 11/8 rather than 6/4 as they applied a crafty Rule 4 whereas others didn’t.

Turbos. All 4 landed and I am delighted with this method and will go full time this way from September 1st when my new season starts. The choice for members will be to use the Turbo method based on a betting bank of £2,000 or to play the Hughies as normal for half stakes – so the betting bank would have to be £1,000. I will also have some news for members who JUST want the Hughies and nothing else via email. I am trying to arrange this via my Hosting Company and will have news about this shortly.

There was a ‘belter’ of a frame at Stratford (520) and the brown Envelope brigade realised that very early and Lapina was pulled out at 900 am this morning to save the layers thousands. Trainer A Middleton has had 3 winners only. Enough said. Disgusted as usual.

Just One ‘Live Blog Bet’ From Me Today

An £12 Hughie (A place bet played via Betfair’s place markets on the horse finishing in the places i.e. 1st, 2nd, or 3rd)

£12 to place on Corporation 5.20 Stratford (This is surely between The front two, Billy Magern and Corporation and the only possible threat on form was Lapina, now a NR see above.) Pitching at 1.15

Price at the end is price to take or if pitching and not taken then bet 5 mins pre race at best. Obviously take care & adjust when drifting substantially or if horses taken out.
