Both better than sheep, but not that much! Please tell me you don`t know that from experience! [/quote] Well a "Lady"'s a fiver (Godiva) and a "monkey"'s five hundred quid......................I'll leave you to decide.

Without wishing to appear ignorant, and with genuine interest, what does that equate to in 'layman's' terms. Are points equitable to pound notes?

tufc01 - its not about being sure of myself at all. My system needs to be followed on a day to day basis, putting a tip or two up would just be a complete waste of time. I have around an 88% strike rate @ an average lay odds price of between of around 6 so simple mathmatics would show that overtime my bets would be profitable, presuming that the strike rate was maintained (and of course noone can guarantee that). Finding an edge at gambling is mighty hard. There are ways of making money at it. I know of a system (not mine) where it is quite easy to make £50 a day with no risk by using best odds guaranteed bookmaker prices and betfair odds coupled with a simple piece of software which monitors the prices on a couple of price comparison sites. Anybody could do this - with half an hours instruction. Problem is the online bookies will close you down as soon as you start winning - well to be honest they won't actually close you down, as that is bad publicity but they will restrict your bets to derisory amounts. Using the aforemetioned system I won around £1000 in May. I cannot use it now though because I cannot get the money on. You have all seen the big bet365 adverts at half time during the world games. Well if i want a bet on a horse say at 10/1 the maximum I can get on with Bet 365 is 87 pence! If the horse is evens I might get £3 on. Every bookmaker is the same - they hate winners!

Thanks for clearing that up for me. That now puts you well and truly in the 95% bracket that you described in your previous post.
