Well that'll do me, taking my profit and running. Don't know if I was exceptionally lucky to hit 2 challenges, or just hit a really unlucky streak post the 2nd successful challenge, as most of my picks were from the same sources. Learnt a bit about baseball along the way, campaigner of a sport to try and follow any sort of form, not unlike this years AFL season haha.

good on you. i think you were a little lucky in that you had a couple of wins in a streak, otherwise i have never seen so many odds on bets go down!
I am not a sports punter and don't have the patience to study it, but those random sports you pick? do you watch them? what is the reasoning for betting on them?

 

[Sabbathen]

Mostly tipsters that I found on twitter with a fairly respectable overall record and post regular tips for free. There was absolutely no system to it and a lot of these people could have completely fabricated stats so I agree there was a huge element of luck. I simply tried to take picks I thought would win more so than looking for any real value. I watched a bit of major league baseball, it's not something i'd really bet on in the past but I enjoy the amount of stats in MLB and i'd like to work on a model for next season.

I do this pretty often with dogs. Start at like $5-$10, can usually land the first couple and get to around $40, have a loss or two back down to $20, hit $40-$50 again and then usually drop $30 on something and it comes in 70% of the time I'd say.
