Week 5 bets

After the loosing week, let's see if we can turn things around.

I did place the following bets on the European tour @ Dubai Classic. The major of the middle east.
Win bets 0.5 pts per bet:
H. Stenson @ 13.
L. Oosthuizen @ 29 (Did not start)

Place 5 bets also 0.5 pts per bet:
L. Oosthuizen @ 6,6 (Did not start)
T. Fleetwood @ 14,2
E. Grillo @ 11
T. Olesen @ 14 (Missed cut)
N. Colsaerts @ 13

Place 10 bet 0.5 pts:
R. Rock @ 15

Update after cut: Only bets still can be won. That is a top 10 place for Rock and a Top 5 place for E. Grillo. I know still 36 holes to play but I can't imagine that Stenson wins the tournament. He is six shots behind.
Fleetwood already 9 shots behind fifth place. Colsaerts also 6 shots behind the predicted place, but he had his bad day already, made his cut, so he play without pressure and climb the ladder on moving day.

My 8 to wacth bets:
Wattel @ 17
E. Grillo @ 11
T. Pieters @ 11
Pepperel @ 14,2
Hatton @ 19
Broberg @ 41
Bjerregaard @ 81

Update after cut:
Wattel (what is wrong with him), Pepperel and Bjerregaard (again 3 missed cuts in a row) are lost.
The bet on Grillo still possible.
Hatton made the cut, but probably to far behind to get into contention for a top 5 place.
Pieters and Broberg are currently at -6 but that 5 shots behind the top 5. Still feasible, but unlikely.

PGA Tour: Phoenix open
Win bets:
Fowler @ 23
Watson @ 15

Place 5 bets:
Fowler @ 5
Mickelson @ 6
Spieth @ 4,5
K. Na @ 17
Matsuyama @ 5

Place 10 bet:
Seung-Yul @ 10

Football bets:
Already 1 single won. The victory of Sevilla in the Spanish cup goor for a profit of 0.5 pts.

My regular weekend bets:
Random 5 Jupiler Pro League @ 6,04
Club Brugge - KV Oostende: Over 2.5 goals
Lierse - Standard : Standard to score
Charlerloi - KRC Genk: KRC Genk to score
Sp. Lokeren - AA Gent: Both teams to score
Anderlecht - Zulte Waregem: over 2.5 goals

Update: Already lost. Club Brugge has so many chances, played 85 minutes against 10 players but could only netted 2.

5 goalscoring players: Max odds @ 64,05
Lukaku (Everton)
Lewandowski (Bayern Munich)
De Sutter (Club Brugge)
Batshuayi (Marseille)
Cisse (Newcastle)

Update: De Sutter didn't start, so a none runner. Lewandowski didn't find the goal against a much stronger Wolfsburg. Profit is still possible.

Combo 2 @ 2,35
Eiba - Atletico Madrid (2)
As Roma - Empoli (1)

We will keep the faith that these are start up problems :)

Good luck,
Dremeber


Week 4: first loosing week of the year

A loss of 5.84 pts means the first loosing week of the year.

21 bets played. 15 golf bets, 5 football bets and one tennis bet.
Only 2 winners. This was the fourth place of Eddy Pepperel at Qatar and a single bet on a football game.
Add this 9.38 pts pay-out to the return of 0,78 pts on the 5 goalscorer system bet and we have a combined return of 10,16 pts and a negative ROI of 36,5%.

You know what is frustating?
In the beginning of the year I did line up 8 players without a victory on the European tour. All promising players. Having the idea the bet on these player. I was still working out how I would bet on them, besides the regular golf bets.
If I would have played these from the beginning of the year I would have made a profit of 21,5 pts.
I will be betting on these players, each tournament this will play this year. On each of them a 0.5 pts bet for a top 5 place.

Good luck,
Dremeber


Week 3 recap: second profit in a row!

Let's start with the figures:
  • Bets placed: 17
  • Total Ante: 14,25 pts
  • Return: 21,21 pts
  • P/L: + 6,96 pts
  • ROI: 48,84%.

Second week in a row with a profit. Couldn't start the year better. While there was profit, it was a bad week.
Only 1 winning bet. Namely the place bet on Thomas Pieters.
All other golf bets didn't return anything.
On the football market is was a week without any winning bet. Played 5 bets. All non system bets had one correct prediction on the ticket.
It could have been otherwise, but Club Brugge missed chance after chance, resulting in 2 loosing tickets.
A beginner error I guess, when playing 5 tickets it is not done, to have 1 match on 3 of them.

The system goalscoring bet was maybe the most disappointing one of the all. Only a return of 0,71 pts.

Still satisfied with the profit, for sure cause it was the second week in a row since the new betting plan. Still to early to draw any conclusions. Profit for the year at the moment is 15,18 pts.
Should help if I could place a winning ticket on my Bwin account, where the money is drying out.

I also will try to stay away from the Australian open, due to not enough knowledge from tennis anymore.

Will try to place my golf bets, tomorrow evening!

Good luck,
Dremeber
