I Bet supremacies on sporting index

 ie team A over team B...quote 1-3...buy at 3, team A wins 21-10, Winning margin is 11, therefore profit is 11-3=8

This is not for all, downside can be big

I buy at 3, team B wins by 20, I have 23 points per unit downside



but here are my three tips for this weekend



Nap...Jacksonville to beat Cleveland ...buy at 3. A real bet of the season

Others

Minnesota to beat Detroit at 3
Tampa Bay to Beat New Orleans at 4

Would it be worth backing all three under "My Bankers"?

if you don't like the "unlimited" nature of your downside on spread betting then yes, but your real return will only come under "My Bankers" if all three win...it's a type of accumulator

If any one of the three above come in big time, then you are able to absorb modest losess on the other two comfortably

It's horse for courses and down to your, and your wallet's, tolerance of risk

Sporting Index used to have an account with stop losses set up. It reduces the variance. You could only lose a certain number of points but the gains were also capped.

My 1 and only bet

Houston at Baltimore

Betting on the unders at 37.5

There is a 90% chance of rain. Will be low scoring IMO

Stuck a few quid on Jax -3.5 @ 2.06. Maybe should have gone 1.8 -2.5 but we'll see.

Gl all.
