My choice of trades for today's Euro Games
Italy v Wales - I won't be looking to enter a trade here early doors, might even wait until HT or Ryan's Split Stake on 30mins if still 0-0 and decent attacking intent is shown.
Word of caution here a draw suits both teamsSwitzerland v Turkey - My Split Stake (enter around the 12 minute mark)
I like to think both teams will look for a win here and hope for a 3rd place qualification in the knock out stages??? -
LCS Kahima 0-1 76 mins

So as we move into round 3 of the Euros I thought it would be a good time to update on my progress trading the Euro's.
Round 1
During this round I mostly employed Keith's lay u1.5 approach, I left this as set & forget because in my opinion if you're looking to trade out then we should be looking to trade in.Not trading the Lay u1.5 approach is just my opinion and I know Keith does an excellent job doing it his way, he will start laying scores etc. at HT if 0-0 and will not only avoid losing but start to hit double bubble.
It works really well for Keith but the jury's still out for me.
P&L results from round 1... -0.5pts
Round 2
Round 2 and I switched from Keith's Lay u1.5 approach to my preferred Split Stake method (trading), no right or wrong here guys, It's just my trading upbringing making me feel more comfortable and I wanted to test between different approaches (yes am fully aware of small sample size
)P&L results from round 2... -0.5pts
So, interestingly when using both approaches as the staple trade/bet both weeks produced similar results!!!
For complete transparency I have attached a spreadsheet which is updating all of my trades during the tournament and you're welcome to browse through and look through my tournament activities (you will find a link in my signature).
Whilst my results show -1pt in trading, fortunately, due to a mistake in the Turkey v Wales match (not recorded as this was not an intended trade) I did gain an extra point there (removed red on the 1st goal but forgot to cancel my final 2 queued back bets which kicked in late in the game) which basically leaves me scratch for the tournament (to date).
Conclusion
Moving into week 3 I will continue to use my Split Stake approach as I feel it gives more in-play options to tweak my trades.For example I opted to switch from o2.5 goals in the Hungary v France game yesterday (didn't like the look of IPS, was in my trading shed up the allotment
) and proceeded to trade the o1.5 market (was 1 part matched in o2.5 goal market but let this run until 2nd goal & removed red).I will continue to look for any edges which may present themselves during the 3rd round and I wish everybody success in their pursuit of profit in the Euros
Thanks for this Alan, exactly the kind of thing, along with just watching people posting the trades, I was looking to use to learn from all your experienced traders

Todays non Euro goal games;
SHG trade should be good on following HT scores;
0-0, 1-0, 1-0 or 1-1Best of luck if following
-
No trades from me today, hope some got on them the past few days, got a fairly decent cushion to push on with rest of this month now, aiming for that 30pts/30% bank increase, off to go see my bro play rugby and then spend the day with my dad for fathers day, good luck, nice to see some domestic football back for a small break from just euros also

Good hit on the Flamengo game.
Looks like Columbus hit too but I wasn’t on that one.

Spain wont be winning this tournament
They're just so boring. On par with us to be fair haha!
I think we are seeing that tiki-taka doesn’t really work anymore. Spain are still trying to play that way it seems and are unwilling to up the tempo and take risks.
Mind you David Villa or Fernando Torres would have scored a few of the chances Morata has missed this tournament.
