Thursday 18th September 2014

On the way to work yesterday I heard a report on the radio which said that ‘talent/skill’ is something that you can gain through practise and hard work. It beggars the question however, that why would we as humans would give such dedication to something that we weren’t good at already, since this usually brings little joy.

 

Not sure if this applies to punting, which I definitely enjoy, especially when I win. However, this is to be my new  philosophy, more research and studying, both the form and data concerning the events, and also the general ethos of punting. In this vein, I have already ordered books by such punting gods as, Nick Mordin, Pricewise, and Alan Potts. I will be punting in the hard hours, with hopefully the resultant improvement in my skills/talent.

This week I had a few picks in the Welsh Golf, and I was going to follow my old mate Ben Linfoot, the Sporting Life's value bet.

I also decided after much thought to have a dabble on the Super League playoffs, something I've historically had good results when betting upon, except last year when Wire through away a half time lead to Wigan. This year I liked Leeds, I'd expect them to rediscover their best form in the playoffs, and challenge for the double, just like Wigan did last season. I also liked Wire again, and had a bit each way on at a generous looking 11/2.

Further updates to come, more than likely on Monday.
