Aug 2024 £3000 - ? Bank Challenge

[Richard Latimer]

I'm leaning away heavily from South Africa with the volumes traded and available. 15 mins before kickoff and a total of £23.71 traded on Polokwane. No decent volume until laying at 9.00.

First decent volume on the back is 7.2 Going to remove this league from filters. It's decided.

[Richard Latimer]

So far so good

Beitar Jerusalem appears to be Monday

[Richard Latimer]

For Sunday. I may or may not take the South African game depending on liquidity/volume etc...

Plus it's a first for that league.

Here's home lays for tomorrow and Sun morning:

Couple won't happen (odds crazy at present), not sure if the Thai game is even playing.

[Richard Latimer]

Nothing Friday

[Richard Latimer]

Nothing until at least Friday now

2/2 today:

[Richard Latimer]

Just checking the overs system I'm working on and Rampla won!! That's a good advert for my 11.0 cutoff. Was 12.00 just before kickoff.

2 for Mon:

Much less chaotic today:

[Richard Latimer]

Here's todays home lays - All in leagues with decent liquidity:

[Richard Latimer]

Still profit for Sat afternoon selections. Even with the 2 losses.

[Richard Latimer]

I'm slowly moving away from crap leagues where there's no volume to speak of. Going to be a little painful initially with leagues which have been strong in profit. But then I can't take them anywhere so what's the point I guess.

[Richard Latimer]

I'm scrapping Singapore. Too hard to get matched. Liquidity crap this morning.

[Richard Latimer]

It's fair to say the English leagues as a whole have been meh. Just under break even across the the lot since Feb.

[Richard Latimer]

What a day. I'm going to track the Arsenal games in case they suddenly turn into a massive earner but I'm taking them off the table. I want to watch them for enjoyment and nothing else. Not that today was enjoyable.

Problem I have with Premier League so far is that the odds are mostly massive. If I include Arsenal from today coupled with the Everton 2-0 over the other scousers then that league is looking very shakey.

Everton was 8.0 and todays 5.6.

Is it the fact there's so many damn good teams in our top league?
Is it the bullshit officiating?

I don't know but I'm clearly not removing it unless it takes a nose dive.

[Richard Latimer]

Using oddsportal to go back and look at previous selections the liquidity has always been poor in Malta. Now it's also in the red I'm saying goodbye.

Rest assured if this was a bigger league with more upscaling capability I'd at least still be tracking. As is I'm removing Malta from the sheet at slightly less than break even since Feb.

[Richard Latimer]

Not the worst day in the world but Birkirkara coming back to haunt me. If a league has poor liquidity but enough to get on and proving profitable I'm not dropping it until the volumes become an issue.

When liquidity and p/l become an issue it's time to have a think. Malta now in the red and not easy to match. Going to go back and look at prev liquidity for other selections.

[Richard Latimer]

Might take a leaf out of Ryan's book and not trade on my team. It rather ruins the experience.

Plus the refs have got it in for us
