Laying Horses
-
I know this is the matched betting section, but didn’t think it belongs in Chit-Chat
Anyone else lay horses?
Now that my matched betting income has dwindled, I thought I would give it a go for small money.
I know its obviously gambling but it’s obviously a lot easy to pick a horse that doesn’t win.So far I’m £180 up. I’ve laid 26 horses, 22 have lost and only 4 won.
Seems to me with a good knowledge of horse racing this could be a good way to boost income……….
At the moment I’m sticking to lower odds horses and only £10-20 stakes. Average odds are 4.0
Just wondered what extra things can I look out for?
Was thinking about the weather and so on making things less predicable etc
At the moment I’m just guessing after reading the racing post app, but I’d love to improve my chances.+2June 15, 2016 at 1:18 pm

New to matched betting?
My Matched Betting Academy is the best place to get started. Learning the fundamentals takes 10-15 minutes and you’ll make £15 in the process.

Good luck Ice and lets hope your the exception that proves the rule, if your having a bad day as someone else has said don’t chase your losses. I used to play a lot of on line poker, and once I learned not to chase losses when things were going badly I went from a loosing player to a winning one, it is that important.
The consensus used to be with poker (it may have changed now) that less than 5% of all players actually made money long term, unfortunately betting on horses is even worse. From what I have read less than 2% are long term winners, so the odds are against you but who knows, you could be in that 2%.
+0lol! Well would you believe it! I picked 3 winners in a row today. £140 of profit gone in a flash. Still up but annoyed I didnt spend a bit more time waiting for better opportunities.
Still up about £70-80 so Ill carry on. Think I will only lay favourites from now on though. Just need to pick the right ones+0
