Today I have never taken so many bad prices EVER and I just do not know when to take them, do you guys?

I watched a EVS favourite get tucked into 4/7 when I didn't take the price, then a 5/2 favourite drift out to 5/1 when I did take the price and many many more. I just don't know enough about horses and dogs to know when to take price.

was a weird punting day today for sure.

Bet online, get best odds guaranteed - simplest way to minimise downside. I never place a bet in a betting shop, -EV

When I'm in the bookies I always check the prices on the zoombet lite app (betfair) on my phone and which way the market is moving before taking a price.

Frowned upon if they knew but I doubt most of them even know what betfair is.

read a few posts and you seem to punt quite a bit on the dogs and horses.

you say "i just dont know enough about horses and dogs to know when to take price"

ok study a few stables for a couple of months monitor the markets when there backed and when they drift, plenty of patterns to be picked up

Whilst ever there are plenty of mug punters the bookies will milk them for all they can.

I went to York yesterday and in one race the best price in the ring was 6/1 when you could get 15/2 online.

You see it at Cheltenham. I always chuckle when I see a horse in the main betting ring at say, 14/1 and you see the bookies in the exhibition centre with the same horse at 11/1. There are about 10-12 of them in there, they must be p!ssing themselves laughing. And there are daft punters queuing up to give them their money. If they just looked up to the big screen in there they would see the difference.
