Well I did tell everyone that profits would be made this World Cup and how right I was.
I have played very few games or markets on individual games so far. This is due to teams resting key players, shuffling of batting orders and the better sides putting the minows in to bat first. However, that is all about to change when the competition moves onto the second stage, the "supersixes".
The better class nations will be filling those six places, with the exception of two, or possibly three of these six, South Africa, New Zealand, West Indies, India, Pakistan and England. The last named country put themselves into this situation, and the way they have played would surely have beaten Zimbabwe.
Betting opportunities will present themselves because sides can no longer take precautions, it will be do or die.
However, that has not prevented me from securing 53.07 points profit so far from two weeks. A number of outstanding bets still have someway to go. Gibbs is second in the batsman market and Hayden has yet to get two quality scores which I feel will come. Ntini is on the verge of top wicket taker, but his progression will dedpend on how South Africa do in their next two games. Lara leads the West Indies batsman, but Sarwan is hot on his heels. Atapattu is struggling but two decent scores and a bit of consistency may bring home the bacon here.
I all ready had 6.82 points profit from bets posted here on the forum. I sold Carl Hooper on the spreads last week at 390 after buying him at 370 in the "player performance" market. I played for 0.25 points per unit, so with 20 (390 - 370)the difference between buying and selling gives me + 5 points
After today's games (sunday), I have just sold at 605 in the "tons up" market. Having bought at the start of the tournament at 440, I have locked in 165 units. I bought at 0.25 points per unit so another + 41.25 points was added to the balance.
6.82 + 5.00 + 41.25 = + 53.07 points profit
