AMPS Record

[A.M.P]

O.k,

I've finally got round to doing a bottom line (oo errr).

What I'm going to do is give the summarised results from August 1st until now and then add to it midweekly / weekly.

So here goes:

Bets placed: Loads - too many to count but I am now!
Points Staked: 39
Points returned: 55

Profit: 16 points

% of points staked: 41

AMP

update before this weekend:

Staked: 89
returned: 97.6
Profit 8.6

% of staked: 9.7 %

Profit eroded but could have been worse. Some shocks in the Conference.

Lets see what today brings...

[A.M.P]

67.15 spent
53 returned

Loss: 14 points (rounded) :

An extremely bad week at the office. I could tell you of the normal punters woes of last minute equalisers, goalkeepers being sent off and one leg of an aculminator letting me down (twice). But that's the fun of the fair isn't it?!.

Wealdstone loosing 5-4 after being 4-1 up tonight kind of sums up the way things have been going more succintly.

Doing this makes me analyze my bets, strengths and weaknesses. Overall in the FA cup I've beeing doing well with some nice odds winners. Next games are Sept 10th and I've started my analysis now.

This stands to reason really as Bet 365 will price up about 60 obscure games so there's a real chance of value. I feel i must improve my staking plan to take advantage of this.

So, from a nice healthy profit into a big fat loss in one week.

To date:

Staked: 156.15 pts
Returned: 150 pts

Loss 6.15 points

Percentage of staked lost 3.9 percent.

Fcuk it - I'll take that actually. In my head I was carrying about a 10 point loss, so with this run a 4% loss of staked money doesn't sound too bad. However, there's lies and statistics and I'd say it represents about 20% of my starting bank which is big enough.

Still, I'm looking to get back to winning ways quickly, starting this Saturday.

good luck Amp. i missed this. I keep mine pretty slack too Amp (ooer) I dont even count the small change in my record.

[A.M.P]

Cheers Komp - I'm sure it'll come good.

Yeah - I didn't bother myself last season but I agreed with pre-season comments regarding seeing what leagues are yeilding profit and which is costing you.

"I dont even count the small change in my record."

Nor do I. Alll of the bets counted are for five pounds or more.

Thanks Gerry!

[A.M.P]

2 more winners.

2 points @ 2.0
2.5 points @ 1.8 (See non-league thread for details)

Staked: 4.5
Returned 8.5
Profit 4 points

So my record to date looks healthier at:

Staked: 184.2 pts
Returned: 192.6 pts

Profit 8.4 points

Happy with that as it's turned a 6 point deficit round to an 8 point profit in about a week. Thanks to having 7/8 winning selections

Lets see what the weekend brings...

p/s Bloody Barrow!!! 6-1 they won today! I'd been 20 points in profit due to them last week

This the first time you've kept a solid record of all your bets AMP?

I only started doing it about 6 months ago, but its made so much difference - means analysis of where your profits and losses come from is a lot easier, and helps you tweak your betting style and staking plans to maximise your returns.

A must for everyone I'd suggest, and only takes a minute or two per day.

Anyway, best of luck with your bets AMP - looking good so far

[A.M.P]

Cheers Beanie - yah it's the first time I recorded it.

An absolute of a weekend.

Staked: 34.5
Returned: 47.5
Profit: 13 pts

So totals:

Staked: 219
Returned: 240

Profit 21 pts

Bang on target. Pre-season I was looking to get to 20pts within 6 weeks and now I've done it. I just hope I can keep it going!

AMP

[A.M.P]

Since my last udate:

Staked: 54
Returned 54
Profit 0

Which infact is a right result because I became despondant after the weekend (again with my staking I think) as I made a loss on Saturday, then tried to chase it on Sunday with a bet on Southampton - and so made a bigger loss.

Still, an excellent Carling Cup midweek and a few cheeky bets on Forest and an MSL one saw me claw it all back before me 30pt plus investment on this FA Cup qualifying weekend

So my ammended totals are now:

Staked: 273 pts
Returned: 294 pts

Profit 21 pts

Yeild: 9.3 percent

Still better than the stock market at the moment but I want to break into the teens if I can.
