Our place betting method has a strike rate of nearly 80% and we’ve dubbed them “Hughie’s”. The place bets have been an amazingly successful and relatively stress free method whereby we have trebled the bank over the last three years. This has been done without necessarily backing any winners.
You can grow your bank gradually and with very little risk using place betting, while still seeing good profits overall. This is definitely a long term strategy, and won’t provide any quick thrills. However seeing your profits growing steadily should more than make up for this, and after all we are betting for profit not gambling for excitement.
Big Mike recommends that the place bets should be the starting point for all newbies as they are the foundation bets of the service Big Mike Betting provides. They are played via Betfair’s place markets.
There are two types:
The first we call the Turbo Hughie, and it further enhances the safety first place bet approach with an “in running” lay, which turns the activities of the “in running” traders to your advantage and makes the most of your place betting profits.
The other is known as the Ringmaster, the roll up place market bet, and is played over a few days. The target is to hit one hundred pounds after banking the original stake along the way, and it is potentially risk free.
