High winds and earthquakes but more of the same

I had 3 losers today including 2 second placers.  It is now odds on that February will finish as a losing month with just 3 days of racing left to turn things around.  To be honest the loss is pretty much going to be equal to that the one bad lay I did earlier in the month and that is what is going to keep it fresh in my mind.   The weather is certainly not helping things as I had a good selection at Catterick yesterday and if that had won I would be back in the profit zone.

 

Wilkinson made a small loss yesterday despite having a 6/1 winner.  I am not concerned though as it had that massive day on Saturday so things will soon level themselves out.  It is well in profit.  A lot of people have been debating the system which is great.  The biggest concern most people have is that you get your accounts restricted/closed and you have to bet big to win big.   Both of these are not really true.   On average I risk £12.70 a race.  I only backing horses £100 win which again are no big shakes with most of the bookmakers and hence my accounts don’t get restricted.  Yes I have a few accounts restricted but only bet365 and betfred have come down really hard on me.  In fact Sportingbet have actually increased my liability.

 

Below is extract from the facegroup discussion on the Wilkinson system.  The beauty about great systems is that there are simple.  Wilkinson is so simple that people don’t believe it works.  I am trying to make it as transparent as I can.  I post all my selections as soon as I have done them.   I will date/timestamp these and publish all the results soon.

 

I appreciate the comments and they are similar to what a lot of people have said recently. I will publish soon all my selections for the last 5 months and a bit months to show how I have made £12,500.

One thing I do want to make clear is that you can probably adapt what I do and make more money. The reason I don’t is because I like the consistency and relatively short losing runs with this system. I have yet to have a losing week let alone a losing month. In addition it does not take me more than 10 minutes a day.

How to I come about devising this system? I was converting a lot of new account concessions for people and I noticed a strange pattern happening that I was losing fair more money in the exchanges and winning far more with the bookies. At first I thought this was just a short-term pattern but this maintained itself for over a year.

I decided I would investigate further and realised that I was actually backing many horses at the start of so called gambles or who horses tipped up by various tipping services. At this point I initially thought I would do a variation of the Nick Shiambouros 80-20, in that I would lay 80% of my stake of at the lower price and 20% as a straight value bet.

This worked by the losing runs were not quiet to my liking so I adjusted the stakes to 10% straight back and 90% sell. Since then there has been no looking back.

The next challenge was to maintain open accounts. The reason I think I am able to maintain open accounts is because I bet in neat multiples and spread my bets amongst around 22 bookmakers. In addition I never withdraw more than £300 at a time.

I do though not have a single bet365 account or tote account left. All my Betfred accounts are very restricted and some of my other accounts are too. To be honest though there are way and means of opening more accounts I just don’t need them right now.

The reason I don’t just back 0.1 points win are for the because I want all the stake to take advantage of concessions such as best odds guaranteed, double result, free faller, no rule 5p deductions, rule 4 versus reduction factor and other special concessions.

As I have said time and time before I don’t claim to have invented the best system in the world. What I do believe is that I have stumbled across a number of techniques that can be combined together to make a winning system. This system is flexible and works on many sports. I will be releasing more finders for others sport very shortly. I want to make sure that 24*7 there are opportunities for members to make money and convert concessions. There are over £2000 worth of concessions to convert and using this technique I am confident you make more than £2000 in converting them.
