There are two ways that you can profit from laying our selections. The first is by laying to win a fixed stake on every selection. So, for example, you place £100 on every selection we give. The horse loses and you win £100, minus your exchange commission, of course. That is the way that most laying services work.
Surely it is better to limit your liability and take advantage of laying lower priced selections whilst at the same time minimising your loss on the bigger priced selections? We never lay selections at over 10.0.
Let’s take four months from 2008.
In March, staking to a fixed liability of £1000 per bet we made a profit of £1786.78 after exchange commission. Had you placed a level £100 stake on each selection your profit after that commission would have been £1095.
In June, staking to that same fixed liability we made a profit of £3230.12. Laying to £100 level stakes produced a profit of £925.
In September our profit was £2489.97. Laying to a £100 level stake produced a profit of only £393.
Finally, in December, our profit was £1175.22. Laying to £100 level stakes showed a profit of £550.
In just those four months alone the extra profit was £5716.09. That’s how to lay! Imagine the extra you can make over the year!
And if you had limited your loss to just £500 per bet, you would still have been massively ahead of level staking.
