A common problem that most new punters have is that they bet more money, the shorter the price of their selection! They seem to feel that if a horse is a shorter price, it has a greater chance of winning. This is not always true.
I have been investigating for some time betting to price. In other words 5/1 bet 5 units 20/1 bet 20 units.
Sound strange?
I can tell you that providing your selection method is sound with quality horses, the greater th price you are able to get on a runner, the greater value it represents!
Therefore you are maximising the returns on the overlays. Stunning results in my trial so far. Turned a level stakes profit of around 150% into the thousands of %.
Well worth investigation, but I stress the selections must be sound.
