Horse Betting System

Have you ever wondered is there any REAL horse betting system out there? By saying real – I mean – profitable, because that’s what you’re looking for! First off you have to know that there are several types of horse betting systems:

1) Selection systems – following these systems, you’ll identify horses mostly by studying past results and statistics. You’re wasting your valuable time if you think you can achieve full-time income by following these stupid horse betting systems. You should know that past statistics doesn’t predict any future results. There are so many variables in each horse race – from race course condition, climate, opponents etc, why it simply can’t work! Forget about these systems!

2) Tipsters – if you’re living in UK, probably you have seen many Tipster adverts in newspapers (Racing Post, The Sun). They all claim that they’re very profitable – just give them a call or SMS (for a fair price of course) and your financial disaster will be resolved. What actually happens is you’ll be in deeper financial hole than before – you see, tipsters are just a very clever businessman’s who make money from selling their tips.

If their tips are so profitable, why they simply don’t make money themselves? With introduction of betting exchanges (like Betfair) there aren’t any limits on bets anymore. If they can grow bank by 10% every month, in just 3 years they all could be millionaires. But they aren’t! Well, Henry Rix is millionaire – because so many people are so foolish to pay him 2k pounds per year to listen this non sense.

By the way – where tipsters get those “selections”? Insiders in racing industry? Oh, yeah – for sure! They use same statistical selection methods that you can buy on EBay for 99 pence. They just put it in sellable product.

3) Progressive Horse Betting System – there are so many progressive betting systems available to purchase on The Internet – you simply can’t go wrong 🙂 There’s something common for all those systems – risk! Huge risk to ruin your betting bank by the time first loosing run occurs. Selection systems usually are included – something like check out Racing Post selection box (mostly – low priced favorites) or get tips from leading Sun tipster.

Profit targets are way too high, picks low-priced (under value bets) – in result – it isn’t long term profit maker. I’m not saying that you can’t make money with these systems – just how long? There is a way to make long-term profits from progressive systems with very little or no risk, I have written information about it on my website. You just have to prepare to wait for results. You can’t make thousands of pounds in first week with small betting bank following these systems. Maybe you will – this week, but next week you’ll lose everything.

4) Betting Loopholes – the only 100% guaranteed way to make regular income from betting on horses. You should know that we do not live in a perfect World. There are mistakes made on every step in every industry. Same applies for Online Betting, which is multi-billion market and growing. Yes, you can make guaranteed money from horses if you exploit online betting loopholes, not some ridiculous horse betting system.

Advanced Texas Holdem – Why Check-Raising Is For Losers

It’s a confusing advanced Texas Holdem strategy to implement. Read this article now to find out why check raising is for losers, unless your a WPT champion.

I know that advanced Texas holdem poker professionals, WPT champions and the mysterious ‘Texas Poker Gods’ all tell you to check raise, check and raise, check first and raise later. However, for the most part I advised against this strategy. If you have followed my blog or articles for sometime you’ll know this. The bottom line is this:

– When you check, you can only win by one way. That is to have better cards then the other players.. – When you raise, there are two ways you can win. That is to have better cards then the other players.. and the players can fold.

I would much prefer two ways rather than one.

Check raising is for losers. It doesn’t work most of the time. It’s a weak, wimpy play. It’s bred from the poverty mindset of ‘I have to save my chips. My precious chips!’. “I can see the flop for free and raise if I hit!”. Or the even worse (in my books) overt-trickster mindset ‘heehee I’m gonna trick him. Hehe’

You can’t save your way to wealth. You can’t trick your way into success. Hard work, consistent practice and a never ending desire to learn is what you need.

There is no replacement for a solid aggressive betting strategy. And you can’t be aggressive when you are checking all the time. If you had pocket aces, why would you check? If you’ve hit a flush or have a nice flush draw, why would you check? If you’ve got a set and have an open ended straight draw, why would you check?

So unless you are so absolutely awesome at your pre-flop reading ability, and without a doubt know that your cards are better than your opponents, and that you will most likely flop a better hand then him, and that he will have a hand that’s good enough to bet but still just worse then yours so you take the pot, then I wouldn’t bother check-raising.
