Been mucking around with this lately and I kinda like the idea of only having a bet when the price looks bigger than it should be, instead of just punting because I like a team or a player. Sounds simple when you say it fast... then you sit there staring at a market thinking am I actually seeing something, or just talking myself into it?
For the blokes here who bet that way a fair bit, how are you working it out? Are you doing your own ratings, comparing across a few books, waiting for late moves, or just getting a feel for certain comps you know really well? I reckon that's the bit I'm stuck on - knowing the difference between a genuine edge and just being keen for a bet on a Saturday arvo.
Also curious how strict you are with it. Do you only fire when the gap is obvious, or still have a nibble on smaller ones if the price feels decent? Keen to hear how you lot approach it, especially if you've been doing it for a while and figured out what actually works and what ends up being bloody noise.
