Today a swift column as there are a few bets to be had.
We are £1700 up now after 3 days of the new season so again I ask you to reassess your betting banks and bet no more than 5% on any particular bet you are having.
Keep the discipline and you WILL join the less than 1% who make money out of betting.
The Ringmaster featured yet again and I have taken back the original stake and we are betting with Other Peoples Money in the quest to reach £100.
My bets today - Remember I go via b365 with their BOG deal & use Betfair on the Place site IF brown envelopes appear to reduce runners to <8 - Prices shown.
Bet Rules
a) All Doubles are placed HALF equally divided and HALF straight.
b) The second single of any Double Diamond is NOT played if there is a return from the first horse.
c) Often I will place WIN lays & sometimes PLACE lays in running on the first horse and these will be given in the column. I will stipulate as and when I play the bet this way.
d) BOG Applies (mine are with b365) on ALL bets (inc other disciplines as well)
e) Use BETFAIR whenever less than 8 run i.e. whenever 3 spots for the place are available at Betfair.
NB Re ALI BABA bets points a) b) & d) are replicated as above.
DOUBLE DIAMOND (£120)
2 X £20 singles & £40 ew double (played as above)
a) Picabo 13:55 Thirsk 5/4
and
b) Tout Regulier 2/1 14:20 Stratford-On-Avon
NB IN RUNNING `Mines` – use the Betfair `keep` facility :-
a) Laying £25 on the WIN site on Betfair on Picabo @ 1.4
b) Laying £30 on the PLACE site on Betfair on Picabo @ 1.10
c) Laying £25 on the PLACE site on Tout Regulier 2/1 14:20 Stratford-On-Avon @ 1.12 (UNLESS less than 8 run!!!)
d) Laying £50 on the WIN site on Tout Regulier 2/1 14:20 Stratford-On-Avon @ 1.2 ONLY if Picabo WINS the 14.50 race.
The point of the mines is to use the extra profits from BOG to safeguard our `investment`. Hopefully all lays are taken each time and the horse wins but sadly over the year that will not be the case. A good adage is `leave a bit for the next man`. In other words – don’t gamble or be greedy and just keep amassing profits the safe way.

£54 IN THE KITTY so have taken away the original £30 so its OPIUM time (Other Peoples Money)
TODAY £24 PLACE ONLY Whereveryougoigo 17:30 Stratford-On-Avon @ Betfair SP
The object of this long term profitable bet is to build up profits for the first 2/3 horses in a sequence THEN take away the original £30 stake so we are playing with OPIUM (Other Peoples Money) in a quest to reach £100 – then start again. Its for the Ultra Cautious.
SPORTS BETS
i) Rugby Union
a) London Irish v Saracens
Irish are a handful and on the wide open swathes at Twickers this match could produce points a plenty & hopefully will suit the Exiles side more than Saracens.
I felt + 5 was fair but the best I saw was + 4.5 with bwin.com so have used paddy power `Exact Winning Margin` here to increase the value :-
£30 London Irish + 4.5 bwin.com @ 9/10
£2.50 Saracens by 5 points (paddypower.com) (Exact Winning Margin Market @ 22/1
Margin
£7 Saracens by 6-10 @ 6/1 corals
Wing Margin
£5 Saracens by 11-15 @ 8/1 Ladbrokes
So Bet wins if Saracens win by up to 15 – o/wise all lose
b) London Wasps v Harlequins
£33 Harlequins + 6 sky/tote/stanjames.com @ 10/11
£1.75 Handicap tie + 6 with paddypower exact winning margin @ 22/1
Margins
£7.50 Wasps by 6-10 @ 11/2 b365/extrabet.com
Wing Margin
£6 Wasps by 11-15 @ 7/1 paddypower.com
Profits here unless Wasps win by 16+
Watch for blood capsules!
ii) Tennis
Melzer v Ferrero – Set Betting
Could be VERY close so playing the bet a little differently :-
£4 Meltzer 3-2 @ 8
£6 Ferrero 3-2 @ 7
