Poor run continues

Certainly does, and so does my luck. My accidental bet, the one I placed by accident on Newcastle to win, lost of course. This is one of those days when you feel everything is going against you. Well, it has been like that as of late.

Here are today's results:

I got eaten alive by the bots on Betfair with my trading. I have setup some automated spreadsheets so if I'm not here then any bets need placing will be done automatically. My lack of experience goes against me so when I set up a saver bet to be placed at odds of less than 3 it was actually placed at 1.03, backing. So instead of backing at around 2.5 it backed at 1.03, not ideal is it? What caused it? Wigan scoring and the market resetting itself and the clever bots taking advantage of the novices... I had no idea this would happen but now that it has I know what I have to do. So instead of a 1.5PT loss it turned out to be just over 4 PTS.

Gambling is so difficult when you're on your own with no teachers about. You can look on the forums, get yourself in-the-know but there's so many angles that you can be attacked from. I'm learning, as always, and I'll get there slowly, a few obstacles won't stop me.

My overall profit is down to 35.63 PTS now, a little worrying. Such losses in a short period of time are unsustainable so I must make sure that at least my own bets start to make some profit from nowon.

Until tomorrow
