it's whether everton will win the league this year.
Well, it's half way between the two. How many times will Everton win the league in 300 years, assuming exactly the same teams? I know that's obviously a flawed concept, but this is what I mean by them having better odds than they should.
Bookies stop you placing bets if you are shown to be making a consistent profit, betfair takes a bigger chunk of your winnings to the point it'll destroy any edge.
Anyone who bets with a bookie is an idiot. Betfair exchange gives MUCH better odds, more than enough to account for their slice. Further, believe it or not, pokerstars seems to have prices that compete with betfair, and pokerstars are not going to refuse bets from their players, are they?
Find the right place to bet. If a Force India wins today, I'm making hundreds from a few quid.
Also to make profitable bets that are 2000/1 you need to have a huge bankroll and you need to be able to make a lot of them.
True. Or bink lucky, I mean there must be a few people who bet on Leicester, knowing they were better than their previous league position, knowing it was better than a 5000/1 shot.
During the world cup a lad I knows...
haha often you'll find that people who think they know what they're talking about are the biggest losers of them all.
Also, there's money to be made on betfair selling bets, too. I mean, people are taking 150/1 on Ocon to win today's GP, while pokerstars are offering 300/1. If I had a big enough roll, I could place bets at pokerstars and bet against it on betfair, and I'm printing money.
