    Missed this as usual. I think we'd need to be on this thread all the time to catch them sadly. You should withdraw your PP account pretty much everytime you win. Also mite start thinking about using other online bookies just in case :D

    Great work and fair play for placing the large bets. Think i'd have to refresh this page all day to catch your tips tho. But keep it up :D

    I've subscibed to the thread. Seems the best way to catch them. Just keep your email open if you can like me in work or at home if you are there.

    You do get them for every post or at least I am at the moment. Maybe you need to edit your options. Can be done for sure.

    So have you any suggestions to what i should be betting on? Im assuming you've made a decent amount in the betting game have you?

    Anyways today im going with a 5.71 double of Luton and Alfreton. Returns 9.65. Both teams are at home and have made good starts to the season. Leaves 20.00 in the kitty :D

    I haven't but I certainly haven't kept losing on doubles and triples either...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,248 ✭✭✭hitman79

    Look im not a serious gambler. This thread was done out of boredom to see if i could make €100 when starting with €14. I haven't but im not done yet. I welcome advice but your offering nothing? Do you want me to make single bets at odds of 1/6, 1/8 etc in the hope of slowly making a few quid? You've given no evidence to suggest you know anything about betting either?

    Anyways Madrid/Galway double came in so back up to €17.00

    Neither am I but I've just used common sense and haven't lost anything yet. Overall I mean, not that I've never lost a bet.

    Anyway here: http://horseracingtips4free.com/today-s-selections

    I use that site, I discovered it a while back and it's fairly useful.

    Work your way up to 50 with small bets then put it all on red in roulette.

    So give me an example of some of your winning bets? Prices and amounts bet etc?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,659 ✭✭✭Chaotic_Forces


    I just gave you the site...

    I'll try a different tactic: when the site has a tip, I bet on it. Understand?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,248 ✭✭✭hitman79

    That site has a win rate of less than 25% but you claim you haven't lost anything? So less than 1 out of every 4 of their tips wins? You must have an uncanny knack of betting big on the tips that win and small on the bets that lose if you claim you haven't lost anything.


  • Moderators Posts: 8,719 ✭✭✭x PyRo


    Hitman, you've a lot to learn if you think a 25% strike rate on the horses is poor. My strike rate is less yet I make good profit at it.

    Anyways, keep the thread going along with bets and less of this cut throat chat! :p Just to clarify too, I know the person who owns that site and he's a good tipster, all for free and no gimmicks, can't ask for much more.

    Best of luck dude.

    I didnt say it was poor. Far from it and i will keep an eye on it. I just find it hard to believe that by following one site he claims to be in profit.

    Fair play for making a profit Pyro. I've a lot to learn to get to your level as this thread is clearly showing :confused:

    As for what the mod said I'll leave at this.

    If you have a bunch of tips and generally at least one horse on that site wins per day: make sure that if just one of the horses win you'll at least break even. That's what I do and I haven't lost overall. I never said I haven't lost bets, I said I'm not down overall. That's something you should be trying to do.

    That's my advice to you as someone who's trying to make a profit too, like you are. If you want to give your opinion back, sure. If you don't want to follow my advice, sure.
    But yeah, sorry for the derailing.

    I get ya now! It's more the odds than the strike rate. One could be profitable with a 5% SR just backing higher odds horses. I'm not sure if the site owner is in profit over the long run but he's a nice guy and as genuine as the come. He's "Betting Tips" on facebook and updates his profit/loss there daily.

    Cheers dude, you're just going through a little bad spell, we all have them. I have them a lot! Just hope it ends before the bank runs out, best way now is to keep the money for singles on things you really fancy and slow roll it. That's what I'd do anyways.

    I didn't back it coughlan,when I went up to the bookies it was 5/4 but said rule 4 deductions. Good shout though,nice to see you spread the word,as some wouldn't,which I don't understand.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 18,335 ✭✭✭✭UrbanSea


    Is that free tips site profitable pyro?


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,433 ✭✭✭✭thesandeman


    Wonder would it be worth having a 'Last Minute' thread for tips that come too late for analysis such as Coughlans? Just the tips and minimum discussion so we dont get an alert every time somebody makes a comment. I get the occasional tip myself but again is usually just before the off so its pointless posting in a general thread. It shouldnt take too long to work out the genuine posters. Just a thought.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 18,335 ✭✭✭✭UrbanSea


    I'd say go for it sandman.


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,433 ✭✭✭✭thesandeman
