Anybody else buying this theory?? I've read up about it alot and watched the documentary "the secret" but its a bit too far fetched for my liking. Basically its the belief that if you wish hard enough to be rich/successful etc. that the universe will definitely reward you for your positivity! I think positive thinking is important, particularly when betting. You need to have faith in what you're backing otherwise you'll get yourself in serious bother and likely be more angry when you lose. Thats what I've found from my experiences anyway. The old PMA helps (no not PMS, PMA - Positive Mental Attitude) and it can help get through the losing times as well as the winning ones.
Enough of the psychology and more gambling talk! Im liking this run of form at the moment. Seem to be finding different value in different places whether it be another sports apart from football or different markets within football. Important to be flexible particularly at this stage of the season. Match odds are starting to become dangerous territory with some teams starting to have nothing to play for. We can now include Real Madrid La Liga matches in that category for the rest of the season.
Backed India and Sri Lanka to win their semi finals. Went bigger on the Lankans but they gave us that little bit of heart failure during that mini collapse. Thankfully Danny V settled the nerves by throwing the ball to Jesse Ryder and the game was done. You have to wonder what these captains are thinking sometimes. And staying with that theme of what players are thinking, we call on our second witness, arise Sir Misbah Ul Haq! Block block block your way to a 50 when the teams run rate is increasing over by over. Great stuff! As some betfair forumite put it "Sensible innings by Misbah, always important to see off the shine on the second new ball." Comical stuff. Was it bent? Probably not but how can a guy who hit the ball out of the park for fun in the world 20-20 a few years ago suddenly play like Boycott on a Thursday morning of a test match? Bizzare.
Football still treating me well also. Have been playing around with match odds as well as correct score but this week I also found what I felt to be value in the over 1.5 market. Last night the Villareal and Twente match was 1.37 for over 1.5??? I felt it was just too high. Usually you see that market at in the low to mid 1.2's for two attacking teams like that. Anyway, Im not complaining. I wanted to have a good mid week because last weekend was a quiet one for me anyway. A satisfactory win on the utd match was the highlight really. Life is proving quite expensive at the moment but Im trying hard not to let it impact my betting as gambling is at its most dangerous when its a necessity imo! Lets hope for more good times ahead. Good luck everyone!
