About 10 years ago a friend of mine used to have a £10 double and 2 £10 singles on (can't remember who but lets say)Forest and Leicester to win 2-1 every week, can't remember how much he won but he reckoned that the double came in 3 times thats about £2000 and the single came in about 10 times thats about £800, I mean you can pick whatever teams you like but you must do it every week-haven't tried it myself but I thought I'd share it with you :thumbup:

I used to have a tenner on city to draw 2-2 @ 14/1 every game when MON was manager it came in 4 times one season think I nearly doubled my money!

Thats actually a very good idea :o

Does anyone ever use the Dawson system? Basically you just keep doubling your stake until you win.

Alot of people used to do it on roulette but casino's wised up to it and would refuse to let you gamble after a while.

I've tried it once or twice before but it can be very costly if you haven't got a big enough 'float'

If used on horse racing it's best to do it by backing the second favourite in a race.

So for example:

You put £2 on at 4/1 and lose.

You then put £4 down on the next race you choose on the 2nd favourite, the odds might differ so you might want to select the races you bet pn but the probability still stays the same. Say you lose that.

You then put £8 down and say you lose that.

You then put £16 down and so on. Eventually if you have enough funds you'll always come out with a profit but it takes away the nature of gambling.

I managed to have a lucky spell once when I did it and was a couple of hundred pond in profit but I then used the system again a few days later and lost alot of money!! Very risky.

I've had a few bets on the horses today, so I'll try your system out for fun and let you know how it's worked out after the last race :thumbup:

Someone told me a similar one, but instead of backing 2nd favourites you back 33/1 shots, now that would be big bucks if it came in :ermm:

In your casino scenario, it is a foolproof way of winning but again very risky as if you lose five on the trot your into big money and as you say it will only work if the casino haven't cottoned onto you.

A couple of friends tried it once and placed alternate bets from opposite sides of the table, but still got sussed.

If you'd have used this system yesterday you'd have been £2074 in profit unfortunately though, you would have had to have had bollox the size of footballs to have gone through with it because the 2nd fav didn't win any of the first 9 races and you would've had to have been £1536 down before the first 2nd favourite won, another problem though there were two 2nd favs in that race so you would have had to have split the stake between the two!

The 2nd favs won the 2 last races so although you would have been in profit would you have had the balls to go through with it? Nice profit though-maybe you could try it and start off with 10p instead of A £1!

That's why it's such a high risk system and i've heard even some bookmakers will turn punters away if they cotton on to what they are doing.

After 6 races your profit would be £81! 15 races to go!

After 12 races your profit would be £116.40 with 9 races to go!

Total profit for the day would have been £253.56 :o

You would've had to have been £63 down twice but both times the 2nd fav won the 6th race, so you would have had £32 on a 8/1 j2f and £32 on a 13/2. Five 2nd favs won altogether out of 21 races!

Not a bad day at the office, do that for 4 days a week or even 5 and you'd be laughing.

Today, that system would have yielded an £83.50 profit, there were three 2nd fav winners today!

.....and the most you would have been losing at any one time would have been £15 :thumbup:

Well mate, from what I gather then aslong as you have a kitty of a few thousand pound then you should always have enough to make yourself a tidy profit. Will you be having a dabble?
