Form plays a massive part in football be it goal scoring, winning, losing.

The thing is, I spent ages researching the runners and riders at the World Snooker the other day (?30 on Mark Selby at 9/1 to win) - but you can rest assured he'll bomb now I've backed him. It always happens. Similarly, if I'd bet on there being more than 1.5 goals in Villa-West Ham, it's a cast iron certainty it'd have finished 1-0. Seriously!

You do appear to have an incredibly unlucky record! Don't worry though. If you put a bit of time and thought into it then you will reap the rewards. I couldn't comment on the snooker because I'm a football punter only, but good luck. I'll be watching Selby with interest. Another one of my rules is not to bet on daft markets, I limit my markets to goals and the occasional overall winner (although I've been moving away from this lately ... very unpredictable at this stage of the season) Never touch first goalscorer or anything like that and rarely touch coupons unless I'm just up for a laugh. Laying on Betfair is also a goldmine if you have a decent bank. The main thing it boils down to is luck though ... simple as that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my defence, I've very often been a romantic sort of tipster: I never back the favourite (whereas that's all a friend of mine does, and he does more than OK), and just plump for something if the odds really grab me. Dundee United, an absurd 33/1 to win the SPL w/o the OF last season at least gave me a run for my money; ditto England at the 2005 Ashes. 1-0 down after the First Test, we were 66/1 to win the series 3-1. I couldn't believe this, and came mighty close to making off with the readies! It's just an occasional thing for me though. I'm a highly addictive sort of person, so steer clear of gambling regularly - but have certainly made a note of your regular success with the "how many goals in a game?" markets. By the way, spread betting - ever tried it? It terrifies the life out of me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's pretty mental and the liability is massive, from what I can make out ... not for me, I'm afraid! I don't know the official stats for this season but I'd imagine that about 60/70% of games have over 1 goal. If you pick and choose your games it can be a nice wee earner!

Result! God only knows what playing on full size snooker tables while drunk must be like! Though if it worked for Alex Higgins, there must be something in it I s'pose... Snooker started yesterday, and goes on for 17 days: it's the Crucible Marathon of the Mind. Selby plays today in a highly dodgy first round with the dangerous Ricky Walden: it'll be tight, but if he makes it, then I could have a chance.
