Just a brainstorm.

say i have $10 bucks

I put it on five favorites with a $2 wager just to use as example.

florida panthers $1.60=$3.20
New Jersey devils $1.26=$2.52
Buffalo sabres $1.50=$3.00
San Jose Sharks $1.36=$2.72

and to make the five
Liverpool $1.55=$3.10

That would net me $14.50 if all five get up.

Then next week put all my winnings (or half on one and half on another) on a another favorite and start multiplying. Therefor never spending *my* money but the TAB money and if this works you could be 50-60 dollars up before the month is out from your $10 initial wager.

Just came up with it a couple of days ago. Feel free to try it and see how you go.

I got this idea from someone saying that you only bet on favorites when you have alot of money to put on.So if you kept on doing this you could net a fair bit.

I might try this at the next local race meet...see how i go.

Favourites can be costly :lol:

I'd imagine over a period of time though you'd be ahead picking our 5 of them a week and sticking to it. It depends on how much you want to win though.

Old saying of if you've got a big bank, you can win a lot of money.

For me, I only punt for the fun of it and it's never big. If I win here and there, great. If not, sh*t happens :lol:

sounds fine in principle, but you have to remember that sport is a great leveller.

good luck with it but don't get greedy!!

They don't happen all the time. But it's a bit of fun. And every now and then you piece one together.

I had some mates that did that system every season with the AFL, problem was some favourites usually got upset every second week or so and they were back to square one.

Sports betting really isn't worth it for individual bets imo, unless you're willing to bet big or go for things like the FTS and LTS... which are all too risky in my books.

I was in a punters club last year which cost $10 per week ($4 of which got banked) but I'm doing my own system this year.

A $5 multi each week - incorporating 3-4 NRL games plus maybe a couple of AFL and/or Super 14.

I've had a fair bit of luck with 4-8 leg multis returning quite a few hundred dollars when it's done like this. They're great for a laugh, and I'll cost me not much more than $100 throughout the whole season. If two of my bets get up after 26 weeks I'll be well in front.

I'm like Macca (though I must say I don't punt as often :lol:), as I don't really punt to make big money or whatever. It makes sports a bit of fun and as long as you only bet what you're prepared to lose (never more than a few bucks for me) then it's a sweet past-time.

NB: My betting 'limit' of a few dollars has been stretched a few times - ie: the Broncs GF win did return me.. ahem ... a lot!
