Expectations and Bankroll Growth E-mail
Tuesday, 31 July 2007

Your bankroll can increase fast!We have defined our bankroll and staking plan we are going to apply and we may now calculate how much winnings we should expect and when we will make our first withdrawal. Because, after all, if we are not going to spend our hard earned money, what is the point to build our Betting System in the first place?

Yes, of course we would be proud of our achievement and we would gain extreme self-confidence, but it is the biggest satisfaction to know that you bought some goods with the profits of betting!

So, let's see if the bank's safe will be big enough to keep all our profits inside...

Wednesday, 25 July 2007

You don't need a bankroll that big!We have now arrived to the point we  are confident with our probability calculations  and understand value betting , and we want with no further delay to submit our bets and start making money.

But what are the staking plans we can choose from, which one is most appropriate for our system and how can we calculate the bankroll we are going to need?

How this is done depends only on the bettor's knowledge, skill and method. Here is how you can do it...

Data Collection, Statistics and Input Variables E-mail
Saturday, 21 July 2007

Having already discussed about selecting a sport to bet on in the tutorial series on how to build your own Betting System, it's time to deal with the input variables of the system we are going to develop. Now, don't panic, by saying "input variables" doesn't mean we plan on building a nuclear reactor! We will have some data entered in our system in order to make our calculations. That data can be anything that we found useful and in referance to the sport we have already selected. Let's see some examples...

Selecting a Sport to Bet on E-mail
Friday, 20 July 2007

You can win by betting on golf!So, you want to start betting with a system and not randomly huh? But where to begin with? Building a betting system looks like a labyrinth and a heavy task, but not in my book. There are some steps you should take in order to be successful and completing each one of them with the greatest attention will prove invaluable.

 

First you should decide the sport you are going to bet on. Pick a sport, any sport you like, the one you are a fan of, the one that you hate the most, the sport that you believe has the greatest potential. However, there are some requirements before you blindly select a sport. Let's check them out...
