The Original Football Gold was withdrawn as promised in order to preserve liquidity in Betfair.

Here's a free system that works very well on Betfair

    This is something I could easily market but, frankly, I can't be bothered as I make my money in other areas. However, this site still gets a lot of visits since I discontinued selling the original Football Gold. Ideally, we need Inplay games in order to minimise losses - so look for Inplay games where the Under2.5 Goals is very close to 2.00 (evens). it can be 1.95 to 2.10 - simply back this for your basic stake. Of course, we will win only around 50% of the time so we need a system to give us an edge.

    We do this in two ways. Firstly, we trade out for a small loss if it looks like losing and secondly, we increase our stake on the next bet until we win. As we always trade out if early goals are scored, we do not have to increase our stakes by much until we win. We can actually afford an unlikely chain of 5 losses in a row.

    Here's the details of the system. If a goal is scored in the first 20 minutes, we trade out by laying at 3.00 which will lose us only around £6.50 on a £10 bet. Use a back and lay calculator to work out the stake but for a £10 stake at 2.00 the lay stake would be £13.33 for a loss of £3.33 - quite acceptable. you can find a calculator at www.arbcruncher.com or you can download one here: http://eskei.com/betting/bnlsetup.exe but make sure 'Single betting market' is ticked.

    If a goal is scored after the first twenty minutes, we wait until the second goal before trading out and we only do so if that second goal comes before 70 minutes. the odds we can get are more unpredictable but you will rarely have to lose more than half your stake using this method. If it comes after 70 minutes, we hold on an hope - after all, this is gambling!

    Now, whatever we lose, we add on to our next bet. For example, if we lost that £3.33, our next bet would be £13.33 and so on. Sooner or later, we are bound to get an easy winner and recover all our losses plus a £10 profit. Of course, this can be done with a larger stake. The average loss will be less than half the stake but sometimes, things go wrong and the whole stake may be lost so, for the sake of example, we will assume that a loss means 50% of our stake.

    Obviously, to recover this, we need to increase our next stake by 50% and this is what it looks like starting with a basic £10 bet.

    £10

    £15

    £22.50

    £33.75

    £50.62 - It is almost impossible to have five losers in a row but we could even afford to place a sixth bet of £76.

    Contrast this with straight bets without trading out if it looks like losing and we would be up to £240 by the sixth bet and all to win £10! The principle of trading out makes this a viable system despite the relatively low returns. Safe and sure...

    As with all betting systems, it is not 100% foolproof but it is as near to being guaranteed profits as it is possible to get (regardless of what other betting systems may claim). The only downside is that a losing run reduces your profit per game and you'll never get rich with this system. However, you'll probably never get rich with any system without a great deal of luck anyway!
