Smart Betting

[mariusrec]

The US Open starts today.

I decided to start this topic because during the past several months i have been trading a lot on tennis (at the betting exchanges) and i have never posted my results and i would like to see how the trading goes, knowing that it will be more like a project.

My objective is to double my bank during the period of the US Open.
The starting bank will be 1000 GBP.All best or better said, all the trades will take place at Betfair.
At the end of each day i'll come here and post my results.
I will also be posting some picks during the competition so stay tuned.

Any opinions or comments are welcomed.

So, the first matches have already started and i have begun my tradings.
Here is a first result, on the Monfils - Cuevas match.

At the end of the day i will post all my results.

The final results of the day is not the one i would have expected.Midway through the day i was quite confident that i would finish the first day with a profit of about 200 GBP and so having about 1/5 of my target completed.

But things didn't go as planned.While i was waiting for the Del Potro - Canas match i got bored so i got in a stupid trade with the Makarova Vs Chakvetadz match in which i lost 300 GBP.

Here are all my trades :

So my first trade was the Monfils match (you can see it in my first post)..
Then i continued with some small trades ..

After which came the loss which was the only match i didn't plan on trading or bet on, just because i got bored i lost, which is kind of discouraging ...

Also please note the fact that i will also be posting my trades and bets from other sports, as my objective it to double my initial bankroll during the two weeks the US Open takes place, but my bets will not consist only of US Open bets.

I really look forward to tomorrow when i hope i can be on the green side both on the day and on the total bankroll.

The day went better just as i planned but still had a loss on the Ivanovic match.Could have been an easy win but got in the market at the wrong time, and then got out again at the wrong time.

Still the day finished with a profit of 119.95 GBP

Here are my trades and bets :

So, with the profit from day 3, my total net profit is at 237.94 GBP.
Looking forward to day 4.

Day 4 brought a profit but i feel i could have done better.Still, a profit is a profit, and is always better than a loss.

Here are the results:

So, a profit of 98.96 GBP for day 4 which brings my total net profit up to the sum of 330.90 GBP

Looking forward to the next few days, when there also are plenty of soccer matches to trade and will be hoping to bring my total net profit over the sum of 500 GBP.

Day 7 did bring a profit but i was looking for a higher profit.
But i was away from home a few hours and missed some matches which could have brought my profit to were i wanted it to be.I also got into soccer which was not so smart.
