#2 Posted: 9/7/2011 8:09:51 PM  I feel I have found and tweeked a system myself and on paper I have done well the last few weeks. I have an account elsewhere where I bet points only and have done fairly well for the most part. I don't have any money in a account right now or I'd be betting money right now on MLB. I can't wait to put money on this system come next MLB season. |

I know what you mean, WINNERZZZ. I've had quite a few of those in the past, and I'm going through a losing streak right now where it seems that if I bet $1000 at plus odds that the world won't end tomorrow, I'd probably lose(don't worry, folks...I won't make the bet). But here's the thing. Even betting on an event that wins 6 out of 10 times over millions of trials, you will get a wide distribution of wins vs losses, and losing streaks are inevitable. The important thing is to try to verify if it really is an event that has a 60% win rate, and how solid is that rate...is it based on 10 games, or 500? 1 year or 10? You get my drift.

Maybe THAT's my problem. I've only got 2! How many do you need, bettor2win?

Then when I decide to finally use it and get down some money It loses. I gave up on systems a long time ago, but still like to see whats brewing out there. |
