The value bets for today are:
Blackpool -v- Preston 12:30
BACK Blackpool | Predicted 1.99 Actual 2.92 | Edge 47% Probability 50%

So, if I’d have just taken the bot recommended bots I’d have been slightly up on the day, however, I didn’t!!! My biggest mistake was chasing the probability of Liverpool beating Nottingham Forest. They lost 1 – 0 which proved to be very costly for the day. My bets and results below
I’ve tried to get Kilmarnock at 2.00, and stoke at 2.22 for some extra edge

Ended 1 – 1, however I watched this game live on Sky as my wife is a Man U fan. When Chelsea eventually scored from a penalty I had a sneaky feeling Man U might equalise, so I did a partial cash out which resulted in a full £0.26 profit!!

Waiting to see if I can get the lay on Forest at 12.50 for a slight edge, risking £11.50 though for only £1 return, may prove to be a bad decision! Unfortunately I did get the lay on Forest at 12.50 and they went on to win 1 – 0, so a massive loss on this game of -£11.50
Possibly don’t go chasing probabilities in the future, particularly of there’s little or no edge.
