It wouldn't let me put my address in on my android, (the address colums wouldn't open) so had to register on my laptop.

Tech is back in the morning. I'll get this looked at then. Apologies for inconvenience and thanks for posting this.

 I'm already quite sad that the Oscars are over for another year. I hope that I was able to help those of you who read my article to back a winner or two and avoid the odd loss. I feel a little frustrated - it could have so easily gone better and I feel I got more right than wrong.

 In sports gambling, as in poker, I think it's good to review your bets and think about how you can improve next time, so my plan is to write a blog later talking about my night and how it went.

 Thanks for that Ian. I have to say, the smooth workings of the site, which I obviously had nothing to do with, are a definite plus. I just posted a blog without the need to even call Joe or our techie guy and make myself sound like a complete idiot.

 Some people have thanked me for winning them money on The Oscars and others have moaned that I cost them. Personally I lost a small amount and if you followed the recommended staking plan you would have too. Hopefully you all ignored that and lumped on the ones I gave mentions for that won while avoidintg the ones I hinted at that lost.

nice blog post

the mental side of sports betting is tough and evaluating whether something was a good decision afterwards is not always the easiest thing to do in my experience anyway

As with any betting you are given advice on/or taken advice on, it a simple case of "No one forced you"

There is loads of good advice offered on Tikays thread, but some will suit, and some wont. Ie, your staking plan may suit regular even money type bets, or you may prefer the bigger priced stuff.

One thing is for sure, whilst I have only ever played poker in Neils company for a couple of short periods, it was enough when coupled with all the hours I have listened to him on the box, and read his stuff to know that regardless of the outcome of the Oscars bets, this is something I shall be running with for as long as its going, because this chap knows his onions.

Thanks Joe.

I liked this footnote in the intro.....

Some of the bets we advise might see the prices change, they might see you get knocked back and even see you have winning accounts closed. We'll try our best to keep on top of that but most bookmakers don't like to lose either. If they throw in the towel and close you down you smile knowing that you beat them and move on. There are plenty of ways to stay in action.

I'm not sure why folks get so uppity when their Accounts gets closed, for precisely the reasons you state. And why would I ever want to give custom to someone who does not welcome my business? We can get along nicely without each other.

I had 3 emails to tell me this. Thanks. Reading now.

I'm not sure I fully understand the football bets.

Have you been doing these bets for the past two years? If so, what's the relevance of using the Betfair average price? You surely just put in the price you actually made the bet at?

Today was the first time we used the subscription email system in the BE. Please accept our apologies if you received the email more than once. We are looking into it and hope to fix the problem, whatever it is, before any more are sent.

That would make sense wouldn't it ;-) With most tips on Bettingemporium that will be the case I would expect.

We tried to simplify and standardise it on the site for the over bets. Often my personal bets are in many segments or parts and at different prices. There are also weeks when, for personal reasons, or lack of time, I haven't actually got the action I wanted. In the home page intro you will see that it is actually something that started many years ago. We have been betting it seriously only for the last two years. It was far easier for us to use average prices like this and it's all automated which makes it easier still. It also shows how we run without spotting ricks or prices that are generally unavailable or not available very long.

Hi Joe, I was just wondering if we could read into the fact that other fixtures have not been tipped up as an indication that your system predicts they will go under 2.5 goals?

We asked the same question and you might expect it but it doesn't really work out like you would hope. I just ran a quick simulation and over three seasons it shows about a +1% ROI with a 51/49 success rate..
