    FoG_BLoG, its an estimation just, those were the best figures I could find out of all the markets that reflects goal scoring ability of the teams, if there is a better set of figures I will plug them in.

    1-0 & HT Draw is 7.83%, 0-1 & HT Draw is 4.05%. Seems fair enough odds to me.

    Thanks FoG_BLoG I hope the bet comes in. Probably wont but still, one can dream.

    Hydro. Going back to your figures. You could use odds of correct score on exchange or bookie if you want.

    With your basic figures so far off I don’t think your profitability estimates are accurate enough.

    I’ve uploaded the spreadsheet with tomorrows Arsenal v West Brom game loaded into it.
    Grey cells are the ones you need to input data into, most are self explanatory. Team 1, None, Team 2 are 1st goalscorer markets. Divisor is the variable that is used to bring the total score % to 100%.

    Can you show me what you mean FoG_BLoG?

    Hydro to be honest that’s all going over my head (especially what first goalscorer market, or first team to score I think you mean, has to do with anything)
    But just to ask – assuming your predictions/extrapolations are correct and useful – what kind of sample size of games do you think you’d need before you see any benefit or edge or increase in potential profit – Football is such a random game I don’t think it’s of any use for any one individual match or even a bunch of matches. How many of these promos are you planning to do? 🙂

    Even though its random there are still aspects within your control e.g. in a 3-1 game the odds of a half-time draw are about 25% whereas in a 0-0 game the odds of a half-time draw are 100%. I’m pretty sure I’ll need to do lots of these to get a few hits. Tbh its just me being too much into the math most likely lol.

    Fair enough, I was just wondering if the work put into all that is worth it 🙂
    I personally think if you want more control over the profits, then overlaying is the way to go. Nothing worse than getting a HT draw and your score still doesn’t come in leaving you with that qualifying loss. I prefer to lock in a profit at HT or in-play in the 2nd half. Some say picking a score and letting it run is more fun – I think saying goodbye to all those qualifier losses and waiting 20 games to hit a win is boring as shit, but that’s me 😛
    Who the hell knows what’s best.

    Hydro, are you attempting to derive the probabilities of correct scores using the odds for next goal? That’s absurd. There’s a market called “correct score”… It’s generally pretty good.
