@richard-latimer said in The £59.91 - Betfair Premium Charge Challenge:
Another satisfying day where I neither made or lost anything but it's better than losing at least. Still confident.
That was totally meant to say unsatisfying but thanks for the thumbs up @Mark Gorton haha
-
Not long ago it seems. All potentials seem to be ok
-
Got some Egypt on there Monday. That hasn't happened in a long time......then again, I need to check when they last kicked a ball!
-
Been working my way through todays results and there's not really anything I can see where things could have been tweaked soo I'm definitely not just getting rid of all losers.
Holstein Kiel could and should easily have scored FH, Mushuc Runa game was ripe for another goal as was Aucas.
Only thing I could possibly spot with Aucas is maybe odds for a H2 goal could have been a little higher. It's not much though and so just put this one down to a bad day. Thankfully it's now the end of all the big leagues so I can stop wondering who's going to actually give a s**t haha!!
As I mentioned I have split the 1-1 HT scores up into those where home took the lead and those where away took the lead. I believe from looking at my results that this is one area where improvement could be made. I'm actually quite happy I missed a loser in Czech as well with Jablonec so that's good.
As for a breakdown of results I'll post that tomorrow.
Bed soon!

Lyon looked good for a FHG but odds terrible again. Hate this end of season dross.
-
Plenty to play for today but I've marked out the 3 dead rubbers on the home copy sheet tab on my worksheet. These I will only consider for first half plays should they qualify.
-
Way too tired to update tonight (that's when mistakes happen) but I'll just post these:
-
Ignoring the matches where nothing was to play for in the 2nd half, just one trade today.
Wrexham v Kings Lynn. Lay under 2.5 FHG (25th minute) @ 2.12. 3-1 HT. +.98pt (£1.57)
-
For today:
I've highlighted games that pretty much from the outset are dead but be ok for a FH play or possibly if it's free flowing in the 2nd half could fit one of the goals galore angles. If it's just a late goal in a game supposedly devoid of much 2nd half attack I will leave well alone.
It's the last matches of a long season.
Some others such as Eintracht Frankfurt (outside chance at present foor Freiburg to get 7th and Europe), Gent v Mechelen (clash to seee who gets Europe) have all to play for at present but it may look slightly different 20 minutes from the end.
Wrexham and Germany Regionalliga teams look devoid of anything to play for but it's not the last game and so they can't pack the suitcase just yet.
-
One bit of analysing on the 1-1 HT scoreline I'm doing is making me wonder whether in time it will be best to split these between those that intially went 1-0 and those that went 0-1. Different scenarios call for different parameters. Not doing anything at present but it's definitely something I'm looking at and much like the 1-1 after an early 2nd half goal was improved by doing this I feel it could do the same for 1-1 HT score.
-
I'm updating everything from yesterday. First things first it was 2/3 on the posted trades with only the lay under 2.5 in Argentiina letting me down @ 1.99.
Lay under 2.5 Kopavogur 70th minute @ 2.8. Ends 1-3. +.98pt (£1.57)
Lay under 2.5 Victoriano A. 70th minute @ 1.99. Ends 1-1. -.99pt (-£1.58)
Lay under 3.5 Breidablik 80th minute @ 1.79. Ends 4-0. +.98pt (£1.57)Total p/l for the day +.97pt (£1.56)
-
This is what I have for tomorrow:
Iceland have now played enough games to be be considered. 3 games in Switzerland although from the outset they all appear to be dead rubbers on the last day of the season.
Depending on what happens and if they qualify I may or may not go for some sort of FH entry. In all likelihood though I will stay away from the last 20 minutes of those games. for
-
Just the one trade today on a 2nd FHG in Switzerland. Laid under 1.5 FH @ 2.04. HT 0-1. -1.04pts (-£1.66).
Hopefully a more interesting day tomorrow.
As an aside, The Wil trade seemed ok at the time but as I always do I look back after any negative result. Not because I expect to be able to rule them all out but to see if there is anthing obvious that can be tightened until the data shows otherwise.
I did manage to find a small tweak where initial results on this particular angle had been soso and outliers where it only removed a few results. Trade is struck from the sheet in terms of red or green although of course data is still there in case I ever tweak the other way.
In addition, I mentioned on the football forum that Wil was close to being a 70th minute entry for me on laying against correct score. The odds were just less than all results I had for this angle so at the time it didn't qualify. In future it would until the data shows me otherwise.
Was irrelvant tonight in any case as my son took my phone and hid it because he didn't want me looking at it while we were watching Jupiters Legacy haha!
-
Not a massive amount going on tomorrow. May get something, who knows!
-
First trades of the week:
Perth Glory. Laid under 1.5 @ 3.05 70th min. Ends 2-1. +.95pt (£1.52)
Novi Pazar (Serbia) Laid under 0.5 FH 20th min @ 2.7. 1-0 @ HT. +.98pt (£1.57)
Choj (Poland) Laid under 0.5 FH (around 20th - I was busy) @ 2.06. 0-0 @ HT. -1.06pts (-£1.70)
Choj (again) Laid under 1.5 70th min @ 2.26. Ends 2-0. +.98pt (£1.57)Total p/l for the day
1.85pts (£2.96)
Bank stands @ £70.26 -
Hopefully a few of these will qualify tomorrow:

Nothing today.

Here's Tuesdays potentials:
Over the weekend I went looking to try and complete my sheet which is to say I was sure there were certain scorelines I could still make a play from. It's a not a case of trying to get more trades per se but being able to find the ability to for example miss 4 or 5 trades at a weekend and still have some I can get on when it's most convenient.
Some of the biggest gaps were 2-1 @ HT and no further goals.
What I guess you could call the any unquoted range of scores from betfair @ HT.
And the games where goals come in quick flurries at certain late periods of the game. Beyond 70 minutes for a FG the winners are sporadic but that's ok as if I'm meant to be in the trade hopefully I will be by that point.
2 goals in the 60-69 period seems to work well on the face of it and 1 in the 60's, 2 in the 70's also. Data set small but the idea is follow the data until it's no longer a good idea. It's the basis behind everything.
Checked through all Tuesdays and while some have nothing to play for I will monitor how they are playing before getting involved should they hit criteria. They also have another game after tomorrow so can't quite pack the suitcase yet.
