……and the website

The reason why the majority of TAB punters lose is because they bet at the wrong price, or take “under the odds”. It is mathematically impossible for the average punter to win long term when they are subjected to unfair “take outs” or commissions, including 10 cent round downs.

Our aim of this website is to attempt to level the playing field and give the punter an equal chance of success.

Most bookmakers offer odds and maintain a margin between 5% and 20%. This is how they make their profit and pay for their operating expenses.

ScottWoodward.Me has been developed by punters for punters, and as such, we value your feedback. Please do send us any comments or suggestions you have for the site.

Anyone that claims to win 97% of their sports bets on a regular basis at odds against is a liar, or even 90% or 80% or 70%. The facts are that the betting percentages that are available make it virtually impossible to win more than 55% of the time. If you can WIN over 55% of your bets at odds against then you will have a very profitable year.

Here’s a quick peak into a typical week.

Every NRL and SL  game is reviewed at least three times and at least once with no sound and our own stats sheet.

The start of the week involves knowing all the injuries and suspensions. Most of this information is available to the public, but not all. Our inside network that will include at least one representative within each club keeps us informed with the fitness and availability of the players. This is crucial as not all injuries are reported and the final make up of the run on side, especially in the key spine positions of fullback, pivot, half back and hooker are pivotal.

The video analysis and the educated inside mail means very little if the market and the bookmakers all agree. The only time that we can win is if we can beat the market and this is THE only time that we include investments into our Staking Plan. Based on our analysis and our inside mail, we are able to produce accurate lines and we know we have a betting advantage when we see an overlay, or when the Line is greater than the bookies line.

Here is a typical example:

Sea Eagles V Storm

Ratings = Storm -4.5

Bookies = Storm No Line

Overlay = Storm by 4.5 points (included in Staking Plan)

Note: An overlay is not an automatic inclusion into the Staking Plan as the games circumstances is relevant like too many variables (injuries, weather etc.) and rarely do we give away more than a converted try (6.5 points).

The Staking Plan is often not teams that are liked or even rated highly, but teams that are rated as “over the odds”.

What is “Over The Odds”?

Sometimes we are lucky enough to bet into a 100% markets, but most bookies bet to around 104%, so in a nutshell, we would have to be 5% smarter than the market to win. Or, if we are Line Betting we would normally have to accept 1.90 to 1.93 so you can see that winning at 50% of time will send us broke.

Winning is all about knowing what the right price or Line is and investing at the right time. We are able to do this on a regular basis because we know the market, but importantly, we know which way it will trend, and if you have this inside information, you WILL beat the market and become a regular winner.

There is Big $$$ in Futures Betting

We will also offer an analysis summary on Futures that have been extrapolated over the season.

Once again, it is easy to win if you can predict the future, and most bookies copy each other. By being able to look into the future we are able to produce a trend which allows you to make a correction if the initial predication has changed.
