My last post was headlined, “56% bank growth…in one bet!!!”.
What’s it going to be in my next post? “1,000% bank growth…in one bet!!!”, as a Lucky 15 is landed with four double digit winners?
A man can dream.
But, what is no dream, is that following on from a 3 out of 4 winning Lucky 15 using the Bookie Bashing Racing Tracker last week, Weekly Golf Value – taking value priced players from the Bookie Bashing Golf Tracker – put up 200/1 winner of the Genesis Championship in South Korea, Junghwan Lee! I woke up to the news that a final round 64 had shot Lee to the head of the leader board, and there he had stayed. Wow!
If memory serves me correctly, and sadly I’ve reached an age where perhaps my memory is not quite as sharp as it was, that’s the biggest winner I’ve ever had on the golf. I recall a 175/1 winner a couple of years ago, with one bookmaker refusing to pay out claiming palpable error, until Bookie Bashing’s Tom Brownlee and our own Pete got on the case. That secured the pay out, but funnily enough, I wasn’t able to ever place another meaningful bet with that firm.
Still, this is a time to celebrate, and not the time to start whingeing about bookmakers!
I thought I had a good week, and then I remembered Tom’s video that he posts each week on the Bookie Bashing YouTube channel, that essentially diarises his golf betting. I knew he had Lee, not only as a single bet but also in some doubles. If you haven’t seen these videos, I strongly recommend them. You’ve heard me say before that I really enjoy Tom’s BashCasts and the videos he posts on YT are always an interesting watch. Try this link.
Without giving too much away other than the headlines, Tom’s Golf Doubles: Week 17 video will be detailing an ROI in excess of 125% since implementing the strategy, err…17 weeks ago. A figure given something of a boost by his huge win on Sunday.
Hopefully, if you’re an SBC member (and if not, why the bloomin’ heck not!?!) you’ll have seen the Each Way Golf Doubles video posted last week that was recorded by Pete, Tom and myself. It’s worth watching for one of the most torturous analogies I’ve ever made, and much more for gaining an insight into this very fun betting strategy.
If you watch that, and then watch Tom’s video very closely, you’ll understand why it might be that Tuesday is the day I need to get my ar*e down to Fred’s and Laddies, and not the Wednesday. It was a bit of a strange week and value on the Tracker was unusually scarce in the shops on Wednesday afternoon, hence why I didn’t put any Doubles down. Not so scarce on the Tuesday though, eh? Lesson learnt.
As a footnote, another WGV tip, David Ford, reached the frame for a full place pay out in the Utah Championship PGA event. His price? Why, 200/1, naturally.
Everything else that happened over the weekend feels a little overshadowed by golfing events. But an honourable mention should go to The Transfer Flow which bumped its profit up to a new high after another decent weekend.
On the negative side, I had something of a horror day on Saturday with SharpBetting Football, but a comeback on Sunday meant the weekend’s loss was tiny. It remains on a fairly significantly sized drawdown, however. And my Bookie Bashing Football Coupons came a cropper too. The more important point here though, is that the prices on the Coupon I concentrate on are staying strong. It’s unusual for me to have a team’s price cut, and I know that if I keep putting down +EV slips, the rewards will come.
Next week I’ll tell you a story about getting into a drug dealer’s car by mistake in one of the less salubrious areas of South Manchester as I came out of William Hill somewhat absentmindedly. But this week, it’s all about the golf, baby!
