Aug 2024 £3000 - ? Bank Challenge

[Richard Latimer]

I'm off to bed and will leave the phone downstairs so as not to be tempted to check.

[Richard Latimer]

Ok so new month begins now and neew stakes as follows:

Game in Chile B qualifiies for a lay under 2.5 being 1-1 HT. Caveat is it's Chile B. In it's favour though is some seriously nice odds @ 3.3.

Stake on this one £2.88

[Richard Latimer]

Don't see why befair won't have all these markets. Not like there is a massive amount elsewhere. Of course that means nothing and they'll probably have their inplay scouts at a 5 a side game that nobody even knows is being played let along gives a monkeys fart about haha!

[Richard Latimer]

The Honduran game I posted the other night had barely any liquidity (a theme there) so removed from the sheet. Just as well, as it lost.

[Richard Latimer]

So a whole month of doing these and after the calamitous start where I lost £14.23 in a day the bank has recovered really well and I've learnt a bit more about the strategy along the way.

To detail it all:

Bank on starting 1/8/2021 = £89.41
-£14.23 loss on the first day
Bank at £75.18
Deposit of £15.00 takes bank back up to £90.18
No selections again until the 4th
+£3.31 sees the bank back up to £93.49
No selections again until the 6th
+£2.10 and bank up to £95.59
7th = +£0.96p and bank up to £96.57
8th = -£1.38. Bank @ £95.19
9th = +£3.63 and bank at £98.82
Nothing until the 11th
+£4.52 and bank reaches £103.34
12th -£4.06 on the one trade. Bank back under £100 at £99.28
13th +£2.42. Bank once again over £100 at £101.70
14th +£4.52. Bank £106.22
15th -£4.28. Bank £101.94
£10.00 deposit takes bank up to £111.94
16th -£6.51 on one trade. Bank £105.43
17th - £3.77. Bank £101.66
18th +£3.66. Bank £106.54
19th - £2.06. Bank £104.48
20th +£7.32. Bank £111.80
Deposit £5.00 takes bank to £116.80
21st +£6.07. Bank £122.87
22nd +£19.90. Bank £142.77
23rd +£4.30. Bank £147.07
24th +£4.86. Bank over £150 @ £151.93
25th -£7.17. Bank £144.76
26th +£1.67. Bank £146.43
27th -£5.25. Bank £141.18 (was going so well and then RUSSIA)
28th 39pence profit sends bank all the way to £141.57.
29th +£6.79. Bank £148.36.
Deposit of £5.00 takes bank to £153.36.
Nothing until 31st
+£1.69 from the one trade. Bank up to £155.05 for the end of the month.

Taking purely the pluses and then minuses it looks like this

-14.23
+3.31
+2.1
+0.96
+1.38
+3.63
+4.52
-4.06
+2.42
+4.52
-4.28
-6.51
-3.77
+3.66
-2.06
+7.32
+6.07
+19.9
+4.3
+4.86
-7.17
+1.67
-5.25
+0.39
+6.79
+1.69
=+29.40

And there are definite improvements going forward to Sept.

Longest streak was 3 losing days and longest win streak was 5 and 6 days with the 5 actually being more profitable. Also mustn't forget the run of 33 wins on the bounce.

Much to feel confident about as I attempt to get this bank over £200.00 in September.

Quiet bank holiday which will give me chance to catch up with the updates:

In the absence of much else it will be interesting to see whether these lower leagues have liqudity. Without data I'll almost certainly leave them be anyway.

I won't even record the English ones here. Some liqudity in Atherton but not much, FC Utd has nothing and the others don't have a market.

I doubt this is one worth getting too invested in but posting it anyway. The rest I'll do tomorrow.

@richard-latimer this weekend has been weird on the footy front

Yeah. I mean I'll keep checking the leagues to ensure that none need binning but other than that I think almost 1,000 selections over 8 and 1/2 months is enough to have a level of confidence in haha!
