Betting and Gambling  Discussions

This is the area of the website for discussions on various aspects of betting, gambling and picking winners.

These articles have been submitted by friends and colleagues I've worked with in Racing over the last 20 years.

Racing and successful gambling is a matter of opinion. You think you are right and the bookmaker wrong  - so you pay to find out, putting your money where your mouth is.  If you're successful then over a period of time you will make money.

But being a successful Professional Punter does not mean you will be right all the time. Far from it - in fact you'll be lucky to be right half the time. But you can win plenty of money being right only 30% of the time.  Check out our results if you need any convincing.

By the same token, that you won't  be right all the time, you will also miss things from time to time. That's why I believe it makes good sense to build a team. A team whose opinions are valued. You may not agree with their opinions on any one subject, but over a period of time they will hopefully alert you to sufficient profitable betting opportunities (or steer you away from losing ones!) to make their input invaluable.

The opinions expressed here are from a  variety of sources and Professionals. I do not necessarily agree with all of the views. But I do value their input so digest their comments and see if anything helps you with your own betting. I've found different viewpoints helpful. There are many different angles and hopefull you will find these helpful in your Professional Betting Career.

Good luck
