SUMMARY
The Betting Life
FIGHT HARD (Part 2)
If there's one thing you have to do when betting seriously it's this: Fight hard to win. As in most other endeavours in life, you won't succeed without winning the battle.
And, to be sure, there is no easy way to win. Once you have overcome the psychological battle as I explained in my previous article in this series-you still have to win the selection and staking battle. Being in the right, positive frame of mind will aid you in winning this particular fight, for sure.
SUMMARY
Now to understand the importance of the odds
PROFIT BY POINTS
This article attempts to show the use of the point to replace the dollar concept in your betting strategy. We consider some very basic but serious reflections on betting technique, then ask why we usually establish our turnover return aims so low.
We suggest ways of identifying and designating 'points', rather than 'dollars', so we can regard our betting progress from a professional, unbiased standpoint.
SUMMARY
Value money management
GRADE 'EM RIGHT
The simple things in life are often the ones we tend to ignore. It's the same with betting. Too often, too many of us try too hard to maximise profits and end up losing out because we forgot the simple, basic rules.The art of money management is something that eludes most bettors. We've talked before in this magazine of how a punter can be a terrific selector and yet still lose because he can't bet properly.
SUMMARY
Setting long-range goals to beat the game
GO FOR GROWTH
Do you have an investment plan for your betting? If you're like most punters, then the answer is no. It is something you should think about seriously.
There are a number of avenues you can follow. One vital point is to try to set yourself a target to aim at. Some years back, a punter wrote to my colleagues Damien Whitchurch, Martin Dowling and Jon Hudson and asked them how to set about becoming a professional punter with a bank of $20,000.
SUMMARY
Making your plans to get ahead in '96
PICK THE PATTERN (Part 2)
Last month I promised to design a year's hypothetical staking plan, an example for you that would restrict your betting on poor days and increase it on the better days, according to your wishes.
The good and bad days are yours to decide on, but you have to end up with one-third of the year good and two-thirds bad. Two-thirds of the year, most of the time, we all lose (if we tell the truth) and we have to win enough in the good third to more than compensate. If you want proof of this, all you have to do is think this way.
