Hi Constables,
My name’s Paul Strawford and I am currently recovering from several back operations and therefore have lots of time on my hands to look into systems for you guys ;¬)
I started my ‘betting activities’ around 20 years ago playing blackjack and roulette extensively in the South East of England and although I had some very impressive wins and enjoyed the experience it was not to last as I hit a very rough patch where I lost my entire bankroll and then some more!
I like to think that this is where I learned a couple of important lessons..
i) Never start a betting project unless you have suitable funds set aside and
ii) Never, ever chase losses outside of sensible staking plans – it may work for a few times but one day it’ll bite you where it hurts!
Since that period I have been very interested in horse racing and more so ‘systems’ – I remember buying the Legacy and Saver system almost 15 years ago now and anxiously waiting at the door to get Clive Holts new book with the Fineform Master Ratings Formula in it…
Anyway I have made some money over the years but more than that I have an understanding of horseracing in general and can spot a backfitted system a mile off lol!
As I continue searching for that special ‘strategy’ I shall be looking into some of the latest systems to see if they really do ‘what it says on the label’ and where needed to point out possible pitfuls with certain strategies etc.
Alongside these activities I have picked up a bit of programming savvy and can write spreadsheet applications and trigger sheets for Betting Assistant and if anyone is interested in these things then please feel free to drop me a line and I’ll give you more info.
So all that’s left to say is that I’m looking forward to working with James and the other reviewers to make this the only place you need to go to find out what works and what doesn’t !
Paul
