Feeling Lucky

Another day, and another profit. I'm feeling quite optimistic at this very early stage, and I feel that I am somewhat riding on a crest of a wave. However, I am not under any illusion that I will be in for a crash landing soon, and I just hope the way I have set up my betting bank will be able to cope. After reading all the other blogs and internet forums, it is likely that there will be some sort of correction sooner rather than later. However, for now I will enjoy the feeling of being in profit.

These are the bets I had today, with the profit and loss figures:

Liverpool: £8 @ 1.80 +£6.40
Josear: £4 @ 21.00 -£4
Pendragon: £2 @ 12.00 +£22
Esteem Machine £4 @ 6.00 -£4
Queen Poline £6 @ 5.00 +£14.40
King Olav: £2 @ 5.50 +£9
Ryde Back: £6 @ 3.50 -£6
Bobby Gee £3 @ 9.50 -£3
Gunslinger £4 @ 15.00 +£3.60

Total Profit for the day was +£38.40. My betting bank is currently standing at £647.24. I started off with £500 on 09/02/10. So far this month, I have placed stakes to the total of £716.80 over 133 bets. There have been 50 winners (this includes horses that were placed as well) and I have made a profit of £147.24. This is a ROI of 20.54% (I think). I am very happy with this figure. At the start I was aiming for 10% but I'll settle for this :)

  2. Hi

    I think you will find you need to brush up on the maths! Queen Poline £6 @ 5.00 should return a profit of £24 before commission and not £14.40, shouldn't it?

    Good luck with everything

  3. Hi Robbie?? Thanks for dropping by. I will add your blog as well.

    Hi Mick. I'm sorry I didn't make it clear - I had £3 E/W at 4/1 (1/5 odds) and that's why I had a profit of £14.40. Maybe I should put this on in the future. And I really am crap at maths as well :) I just about scraped a C at GCSE's
