Staking Plans

A staking plan is a method of controlling how much each bet should bet. There are complicated plans and simple Staking Plans. However the sole purpose of a Staking Plan is-

  • To ensure that the possibility of  losing your entire betting bank is kept to the absolute minimum

  • To maximise your winnings whilst risking the minimum amount possible.

To achieve this we need two basics, selecting the most likely winner taking into account as many factors as can be obtained and secondly correctly placing the correct, affordable, amount on the selection.

Always test plans on paper first before risking any of your bank

Spread Betting

 

Spread Betting is not complicated. Like driving a car, many people decide that it is too difficult without even giving it a try. In fact, once the simple concept has been grasped, it becomes extremely easy to understand.

The Spread Betting Firm makes a prediction on a particular aspect of a sporting event, such as how many goals will be scored in a game of football.

You simply decide whether their prediction is too high or too low.

If you think that they are spot on, you don't bet. It's that simple.

When you choose to bet you must decide the size of your betting stake.

The amount you win or lose depends on the size of your stake multiplied by how correct or how wrong you are.

Let's say that they predict that there will be 3 goals in a football match. You reckon that there will be more so you bet higher with a stake of £10 for every goal above 3.

If there were 5 goals in the game, you would have won (5 - 3) x your stake = 2 x £10 = £20.

If only 2 goals had been scored in the game, you would have lost (3 - 2) x your stake = 1 x £10 = £10.

Roulette

 

Roulette is a casino and gambling game named after a French diminutive for "little wheel". In the game, players may choose to place bets on either a number, a range of numbers, the colours red or black, or whether the number is odd or even. To determine the winning number and colour, a croupier spins a wheel in one direction, then spins a ball in the opposite direction around a tilted circular track running around the circumference of the wheel. The ball eventually loses momentum and falls on to the wheel and into one of 37 (in European roulette) or 38 (in American roulette) coloured and numbered pockets on the wheel.

Inside bets

  • Straight-up: a single number bet. The chip is placed entirely on the middle of a number square.
  • Split: a bet on two adjoining numbers, either on the vertical or horizontal (as in 14-17 or 8-9). The chip is placed on the line between these numbers.
  • Street: a bet on three numbers on a single horizontal line. The chip is placed on the edge of the line of a number at the end of the line (either the left or the right, depending on the layout).
  • Corner (or square): a bet on four numbers in a square layout (as in 11-12-14-15). The chip is placed at the horizontal and vertical intersection of the lines between the four numbers.
  • Six Line: a bet on two adjoining streets, with the chip placed at the corresponding intersection, as if in between where two street bets would be placed.
  • Trio: a bet on the intersecting point between 0, 1 and 2, or 00, 2 and 3.

Outside bets

Outside bets typically have smaller payouts with better odds at winning.

  • 1 to 18: a bet on one of the first low eighteen numbers coming up.
  • 19 to 36: a bet on one of the last high eighteen numbers coming up.
  • Red or Black: a bet on which color the roulette wheel will show.
  • Even or Odd: a bet on an even or odd number.
  • Dozen Bets: a bet on the first (1-12), second (13-24), or third group (25-36) of twelve numbers.
  • Column Bets: a bet on all 12 numbers on any of the three vertical lines (such as 1-4-7-10 on down to 34). The chip is placed on the space below the final number in this string.

It is important to note that in the UK all bets have the same play to payout ratio, for instance putting one chip on each number 1-12 will yield the same outcome as 12 chips on the first dozen (assuming the original stake is removed). The exception is the very outside bets (red/black, odd/even, low numbers/high numbers) when zero is the result only half of the original stake is captured by the dealer.

 

 

 

  
Staking Plan
  Staking Plan
 

The Staking Plan is a steady drip of profit approach to winning.  A set bank is fixed and a percentage target increase is set.  For example if the start bank of 1000 points was fixed and a percentage target increase of 1% was set, the next target bank figure would be 1000 + 1% = 1010 points.

 

The target bank always increases by the percentage target increase per bet therefore the next target would be 1010 + 1% = 1020.10 and so on.  The object is to attempt to keep the bank to the required target bank.

 

The stake for each bet is decided by the level of confidence in the selected bet.  The level of confidence is indicated by the Type of  bet “A”, “B”, “C” or “S”.  These are decided on setup of each individual staking plan i.e. “A” could = 10% of target bank if very confident, “B” could = 5% of target bank if not so confident, “C” could = 2.5% of target bank if less confident and finally “S” could = 1% of target bank if not so sure.  The number of bets in sequence is decided on set up of the staking plan for example a 100 bet sequence of bets starting with a bank of 1000 with a 1% increase would produce a final bank of 2704.81 points.

 

The value of the stake is the percentage “A”, “B”, “C” or “S” of the target i.e. if your initial bank was 1000 and your target for the first bet was 1010.00 the bet would be the percentage of the target figure and not the bank.

 

The target figure will continue to increase by the set amount and the stake percentage will always be a percentage of that new figure.

Special bet based upon a total number of given actions in a particular sporting event (i.e. goals in a soccer match, runs scored in cricket or points in Rugby ). The punter predicts whether this total will be above or below a particular level represented by a “spread” of numbers.

 

The Spread Bet Calculator is a general spread calculator which has a facility to allow for the entry of a Stop Loss figure which limits the liability of losses subject to a premium cost which can be entered and allowed for in calculations.
