Follow up answer from bib regarding the TB..........

bib 25 Apr 20:16


You're welcome, yes some research is crucial - I just checked some numbers - one of the players with good tiebreak records - Tsonga went 14-5 this year (8-1 on his favorite indoor surface) while Canas has lost his last 9 tiebreaks. What I mean by this is that a tiebreak isn't really a coin toss, if you take the important factors into consideration, you can shift the coin toss in your favor

bib,

horselover asking Curlyblues

I forgot one question. what are you thinking about the TB? for me it is like a toss of a coin. sometimes it depends on the players, but in general?

Yes - the tiebreak is quite a sensitive subject and given your exit strategy I can see why you choose to avoid the first set tiebreak if you backed the favorite. Two good indicators as to what the outcome of the tiebreak will be are current form and tiebreak record. Tiebreak record is very important as there are players that are known to play their best in a tiebreak and you will see that the market will stop supporting them even if they are favorite and they go into a first set tiebreak for example. To give some names - Murray, Djokovic, Federer, Tsonga, Roddick, Berdych and a few more.
There are some pitfalls though, as form matters too, for example when Canas was in good form, he would win a lot of tiebreaks but as his level started to drop, he would lose 60-70 percent of the tiebreaks played. Again - it is your job as a punter to check these stats.

my answer

bib,

thanks for your answer and explanation regarding the TB. your explanation supports actually my thinking to take the TB as a coin toss.
even if one could do better in some TB's if he did the research like you are proposing.may I ask if you are familiar with ROI and the numbers that could give some insight?

cheers

Hi, I could give some thoughts here as I have extensive tennis knowledge.

First of all I am not so sure about your strategy here, you are backing mostly short priced favorites and scratch the trade when they get into trouble. For me that means that the only way to win a bet is if the short priced favorite is a train to 1.01. I haven't checked the statistics but for me, from a trader's point of view - it's not very often the case.Take Almagro's last two matches before yesterday.

You could have backed him @ 1.4 and 1.5 pre match, and he won them. But he traded at odds of over 7 in each of them. That's where you're missing out on a lot of value. I wouldn't fancy my chances of making profits backing a favorite and only winning the bet IF he is a train to 1.01. Markets usually know when a fav wins like that, and you get no value in the odds - Wozniacki for example. She wins a lot of straight sets matches but the odds on her are a joke.Also, the quality of the picks is debatable, IF you want 1.01 trains, you have to be very very careful with the selection, and this is where I think you come up short.

Also you need much better loss management, I saw you lost 15% of your bank in a single day, you cannot afford losses like that.Hope you take these thoughts into consideration when you decide to make changes to your strategy.

Cheers.


my answer

bib,

thanks for posting and particularly with regard to your tennis knowledge. At one point I have to agree with CurlyBlues that if a player is losing the first set, and a break down I don't want to sit in and wait for him winning the match. then I will try to get my scratch, even if he lost the first set thats enough for me to go for the exit. Sometimes for example yesterday the Verdasco match, I will try to stay in the match, because the price is allowing it. this depends on the mass price behaviour.

Regarding the quality of picks I will not argue with you, because you are 100% right. Here is avery big point to optimize the strategy.

My point is that I don't know if the fav will win at all, in gerneral nobody knows it. I will go with the fav as long it is an easy match, like you said a 1.01 train. If I see that it is going the hard way, I try to find the exit. I am still convinced, that the scratch trades are actually my winners at the end of the story.

Interesting is that until today nobody gave me an answer regarding the numbers, for example I had more than 300 initial 600 bets, around 230000$ turnaround and I am down 2300$ = 1% and around 1700$ paid commission. not to mention the retirements. How many trades or turnaround do I need that those numbers will be meaningful/convincing?To tell you the truth, if I will not lose any money here I am very much satisfied.

Again thank you very much for trying to help,it is very much appreciated.

I am convinced that posting like yours and some of CurlyBlues :) are always helpful in some way.

MROP's posting in the BF forum................

MissingRibOfPrince 19 Apr 00:58

There is none as horselover has said himself. Horselover what would the profit be if you layed the odds on as your opening trade, have you gone back over the results?. Your losses would be smaller and more frequent but i'd imagine its a better way to go about it.

my answer


MROP,

I can't remember that I have talked at some stage about an edge.if I understand you right, you mean that I should reverse my strategy and instead of backing, I should lay every selection.

I personally need for every market position an exit strategy. this is one reason I couldn't do it. I even can't test it, because of this. and as I am already an old guy, I know that if a system has a downdraw people tend to tell other people or themselve, that if I lose this way, I need only to reverse it and go against it.
believe me or not, thats what I did when I was the first time (40 Years ago) in a casino. I can tell you thats not the way to handle a strategy. even if it is a bad one.

the panic reactions after a loss is a very common reaction in the stock and betting exchange.for now I will stick to my strategy. I think that the only optimization could be a better knowledge of my selections.

cheers and thanks for posting

Question in the BF forum............

McChicken_Sandwich 19 Apr 00:54


No offence, but I dont get where your edge is
.

my answer

legitimate question. I can't tell you, because you don't know my exit and scratch strategy . I don't want to give away the whole strategy. I hope you will understand this.

but lets wait a few weeks and see the P&L in relation to the turnaround. then maybe you or some stats experts will tell me if I have an edge.

right now I have about 280 initial 600 bets and I am only 3000 down. 4 retirements and some bad beats. ah almost forgot the commision.

I need to keep my discipline and patience, and everything will be fine. there will be much better days, imho.

cheers

another example that sometimes I stick to the match even in a 3rd set is the Kirilenko v Martinez Sanchez, but it is not the momentum, it is the price.again, this I call discretionary trading.

Roger Oasis posting from the BF forum.........

Seems like a good day for you,
horselover, plus a retirement that went your way.I'll reply to the points you raised tomorrow as I'm too tiired after a long day at the office today and don't want to type something that I later re-read and think - "Oh hell, I didn't mean it like that".My initial thoughts were based round using more stats.i.e. Which favourite players regularly win - but take 3 sets to do it and you might be scratching too early. From what I have read, this happenms more in women's tennis. I know Murray used to be famous for making hard work of his matches.What I mean is are you scratching too early with favourites who take 3 sets to win?I'll stop there as I'm just adding more sentences trying to make my meaning clear.Thanks very much for your kind comments, they are appreciated, believe me.I think you are very brave to openly post your plan and strategy - and it has been already said, leave yourself open to abuse.Also hello to Layem and payem - the Rodger mistake is forgiven - providing I can call you Payem and layem!
Nighty-night.

my answer

Roger OASIS,

I am sure You earned Your beer and a quiet evening. I am already retired. regarding the retirements,let me explain my point of view. lets take the retirement from yesterday, it happened when my selection was up 1st set and 1:0. I couldnt lose in this match anyway. Dementieva was 1.28, I will need 2-3 retirements for each retirement against me.

I personally dont think that I will get so many retirements to equalize the retirements against me. I have to eat it as it comes You are 100% right that I need to use the stats that You mentioned. but as I said , I like stats, but I cant work with excel to program it the way I would need it. those stats would be 100% very helpful in any way.

what I am doing now, is experience only. over the years I followed the tennis prices and saw reccurring price movements. especially the panic movements (over and under reactions).the scratch trade is for me the most important trade, even if I scratch sometimes to early, but who knowswhat is to early? this we know only after the match. I am still convinced that a scratch to early is not hurting me.
I also use Gruss.

thanks again for the posting and trying to help. and thumbs up for Your sentence:

"Good of you to post and i do like a thread where we can exchange these ideas, experiences and strategies without being abusive"

Posting from CurlyBlues from the BF forum........

CurlyBlues 17 Apr 22:55

I've already suggested atleast once to horselover that he's happy to scratch with momentum when his player has been winning and yet he scratches against momentum when his player comes from behind and perhaps this is something he could look at. Perhaps you will take the time to explain this thoroughly. Favourite backers have done well today.

my answer

if You take yesterday as an example, Nalbandian,Verdasco and Bolleli lost their match, and I would not be in + if I would let those matches run to the end.a TB for me is like a coin toss, and there are only few exceptions like Roddick, Murray, Isner etc. (sure the ground of play is imprtant)the same is with the 3rd set, for me it is mostly not always a toss of a coin. but also here the discretionary trade is an important part.every day I am learning more and more with every match.I dont like players or someone else coming from behind :)

anyway thanks for the well meant contribution.

my answer to Roger OASIS...................

Roger OASIS

first of all a big thank You and hats off for the posting.

one can see how well-meant this posting is. very much appreciated. I copied the posting to my blog.

it looks that You are a good stats guy.

the day You took as an example was a very bad day for favs.but this doesn't happen everyday. but I also understand Your point. the problem is that I can'tlower the loss max of 1100 in case of the 600 initial prematch bet.if I lower the initial 600 bet to for example 400 so the loss will be lower but also the winnings in relation to this. it will stay the same by numbers.

the only thing what one could do is to put more thoughts in the selections. but here we are thinking the same as I see. as I am not a tennis expert I take every fav and restricted it only to agiven price range.

writing this I have to say that there is also the possibility totake only the high priced fav. this I need to check if it makes sense, because the winners will be less and I have to compare it to the losers. I think You mentioned it in a posting before. anyway good to see that You found a way to optimize Your strategy.

may I ask what software are You using for the lay of the field?

hats off again for the posting

---------

Simply, your 7 highest winnings amounts are only covering the top 2 losses.

I speak from some experience of a similar system as for 9 months now, I have manually noted the lowest price that horses traded at - without winning - in all U.K. and Ireland markets.

I have have stats now for over 5,000 races and the curved back to prove it!I wanted a system where my own thoughts/views/knowledge did not sway me and horse-racing fitted the bill as i know very little about it and have purposefully maintained that.Similar to you when you said that other posters know more about tennis than you.

I now lay the field at certaiin courses and at certain types of races but was puzzled after several months, why I was not winning more often, even after discovering other factors along the way such as Irish races often have liitle liquidity, Sunday races can also be poor etc etc - perhaps similar to in your case, unusual number of retirements.

So I analysed my spread-sheets, and found I was laying too high because I wanted 'safety'.So if the most profitable lay would be 1.30, I would then lay at 1.50 as I felt covered by the 20 pts gap. If it was 1.45, then I would lay at 1.65.
As a person, I feel more comfortable if I can win smaller amounts regularly than one large win followed by several small losses. We all have our quirks and that by nature is me.

But, I've had to change my tactics and now lay a lot lower - and hence much nearer the most profitable figure - and my profit levels have improved.There were 2 similar races yesterday, where my most profitable lay was 1.17.Two months ago I would have laid 20 points higher at 1.37.Result 1st race - lowest traded without winning was 1.22. Result 2nd race - lowest traded without winning was 1.13.

Using £ 100 fixed level liability (although I'm not that high yet!)New method at 1.17 = 388 ((-100) + (588-100=488)).Old 'comfort' method at 1.37 = + 340 (270-100 x 2 races).

£48 is not a lot of difference but then multiplied by the number of races that are held each week in UK/Ireland, makes a considerable difference in the long term.

Actually, I usually split my lay into 3 or 4 parts. anyway e.g. if best lay is 1.17 then, roughly 25% - 1.17, 25% - 1.19 25% - 1.21, 25% - 1.23.

Also, there are often large amounts of say £ 2,000 at 1.20 and my small stakes would sit behind that, so I put in a higher amount say 1.21.

Anyway, I hope all this helps or even though you do not use of 'notes from my journey', might perhaps give you a kernel of an idea to approach your scheme from another view point.

For any other readers, I will not answer any questions as this is horselover's own private thread.

there are people who put their bets in already a night before :(

horselover777.Out of interest I wen't back through your thread and pulled the following list of losing bets.Groth 1.41 (493)Dubois 1.58 (840)Dokic 1.27 (960)Suarez Navarro 1.43 (906)Errani 1.38 (852)Zheng 1.39 (644)Simon 1.34 (930)Lapenti 1.37 (912)Kohlschreiber 1.40 (1038)Soderling 1.34 (1050)Nalbandian 1.27(600)Robredo 1.35 (600)Petrova 1.39 (600)Total loss for those bets is 10,425.When you are backing 1.25-1.4 shots you need a proportionally low rate of losers, note also this list doesn't include many others of your short priced shots that you were forced to trade out of in-play.So IMHO you have the basis of a winning system, but I'd suggest perhaps you consider laying the short priced selections and backing those with a higher potential for return.Someone once told me that if you aren't getting at least 3-4 parts for every 5 you are staking the poorhouse awaits.

Good luck .

my answer

nathanrh,

first of all thanks for taking the time to try to get deeper in my strategy and trying to help.with laying the short priced selections, I have a problem. I mentioned this before in an earlier posting. I dont see the exit strategy for the short price lays.your idea with backing only the high priced selections is imho spot on. I thought about it all the time. I thought to back only 1.49 to 1.95 because the winning bets will bring more money in and the losers will cost me less.I need to think about this in more depth and try it in real, because no backtesting possible.I will need to take the time and go through the 1.49 = backed selections and see how the outcome would have been. just for info, till today I had 161 backed selections. with many bad beats and 3 retirements and commission paid. thanks again for pointing this out, it always helps when people from outside like spectators are watching. they see more than the one inwolved.

cheers

horseloverYou seem like a decent bloke and respond well to both criticisms and congratulations in the same even-handed manner, but you need to take a serious look at what you're doing I think. Your thread has only been going a month but it's been a slow and steady decline. In that short space of time you are already 3,000 down with a third of your bank lost - and the trend is only going one way. Don't be fooled by the odd day or two of good wins as these are inevitably being wiped out by large losses. I trust you have a spreadsheet for you daily/weekly P&L (and if you don't I suggest you start one immediately). It must be showing you a sea a red and alarm bells should be ringing.Tennis is not my area so I have no grounds/knowledge to criticise your selections, but on the face of it they appear well-considered. Your staking method however appears to be all over the place with little or no fall-back plan when a match goes against you. It's this that is wiping-out any hard-earned gains you have made. I wish you all the best, I really do. And it's nice to see people continue with their threads through thick and thin - but it's surely time for a review?


my answer

ebasson61,welcome and thanks for the well-meant posting.yes the thread is only going for a month with 203 bets. a month is a small timeframe, but the 203 bets? is this a lot? the drawdown is a 3rd of the bank roll. I dont see a steady slow and steady decline. I think that people have a big problem with drawdowns.but there is no system or strategy without a drawdown, imho. I have to repeat myself, I tested it before with a smaller bank roll and had the same drawdowns.this is the reason I said to myself, I will do it with a bigger bank roll and this thread is helping me to keep the discipline and patience that is needed in case of a drawdown like now. sure, I could optimize the strategy with every loss. but I will not. this is the mistake most of the people are doing,imho. they optimize after each loss and lose their head. I will stick to it with this bank roll. I am also very confident that I will recover the loss. I had 3 retirements, and some bad beats and scratch trades. the 3 retirements is already half of the loss. now regarding the spreadsheet. I am already an old man and not so fit like the youngesters here. I dont know what you understand under the spreadsheet, and the alarm bells. maybe you can help meto understand a spreadsheet to make my life easier I put the daily P&L in an excel file with the results. thats all.my strategy has a fix entry and an exit with max loss number. the entry = to chose the fav, could be much better if I would put more work in searching for the fav selections. like I said before, Rome from the tennis forum could much better than me with the fav selection to my strategy.thank you again for trying to point me in the right direction. I appreciate every posting like yours.

I wish you all the best
