O ye men of little faith. I will speak of this matter no more.

[quote author=Cool'G]That will be true if you are betting on low odds. Personally anything less than 1.5 is bad business. If you are 75% accurate on average, you should make at least triple your bankroll every month and for me, that is good business. Yes, without a sizable bankroll like say $500, it offers little but if you want to make this a source of livelihood then you should be willing to invest a sizable sum as capital. How many businesses do you know that costs less than #150k to start. Professional traders know that the fastest way to lose money is by seeking to grow capital too quickly. It makes you take lots of risky decisions.

I am a student, I started betting with $10 which I lost within 3 days. I lost over $200 trying out different stuffs, learning and experimenting. when I felt I was ready, I started betting as I know it now with about $300 (just over #50k) which I raised from friends and relatives, doing bulk sms and generally lots of menial work like construction. I knew what I wanted and was ready to pay for it. That was over a year ago. Thank God for the little bit of exposure I have with my dad as an accountant, I did my calculations and made up my mind to reinvest at least $100 monthly for the first 3 months no matter how badly I needed money. I was able to reinvest $150 for the first four months, thanks to I.T and ASUU strike. By June, despite set backs I suffered in feb and march, my bankroll was already $1,200 and I hope to get to $2000 before the end of the year. It involves planning, sacrifice and dedication like any other business but it is worth it.

This is a business and everyone should see as that. You can start with $100. Assume that money was stolen from you; you don't have it again. As you double monthly, don't withdraw anything for the first 5 months, add some setbacks and you would have $1000 as your bankroll. If you continue for the rest of the year but withdrawing $500 monthly and reinvesting the remaining, your bankroll would be at least $2000 after just one year. If you only double monthly, you would be able to earn $2000 monthly (#320,000) so please let's stop looking for easy money and instead start planning and working.
I rest my case[/quote]You may not realise this but your testimony has just rekindled hope in the hearts of many punters today. #suspending further arguments#

[quote author=udemzy_udex]i don't like betting on international game and i won't advice anybdy to bet on international,they don't play regularly.
I wonder y some punters will bet on a team that play 3-4 times in a yr or in 4yrs.[/quote]On the contrary, this set of internationals (world cup qualifiers), are the best matches to bet on. Why? Every country badly wants to be at the worldcup. Governments give mandates and ultimatums to their teams just for that simple reason. Why? Being at the worldcup means your country's name will be on the world map again. That's lots of money from tourism and investment my friend. Sadly, the big names messed up yesterday but that doesn't change the fact.

alickdavid: Nwadays, i dn't try 2 combo unles i'm stakin $3
Jus 1 goal fit spoil person combo.

No be lie

elly15: I follow the guy oo.. The guy analyzed two matches

Trapani vs Catanzaro

Cruzeiro vs Corinthians @ 1.95 Home win
I have combo the two, I dont want to near Poland and England match

Trapani vs Catanzaro ended 2-0. Another wrong diagnosis by the doctor. Did you say you did a combo?

[quote author=udemzy_udex]punters dey vex...make i blow una vex comot.

To be a good punter no easy..[/quote]Prof. Udemzy. True talk.

'13 Poland - England : 0-0. Game on!

Maybe i should put it in another way: Your present mentality is punting to avoid losing your bank. I think it should be punting to grow your bank.

[quote author=Cool'G]I was not laughing at anybody cos we all do lose including me. I have had days when I lost all my bets. What I was simply trying to say is that you must assume responsibility for all your bets hence "For all those crying about whiteman finishing them, I laugh in spanish. It shows your account management strategies are definitely not it if there is any at all".

No game is a sure banker and I don't claim to know it all, but one thing I have learned after two years:

FOREX, options, stocks, betting and other related online trades work on two things which are good analysis and good trading system. Most Nigerians are usually amazed when one starts talking about a trade system for betting but it is the only way to consistent profits. I generally do not use more than 20% of my bank roll to bet in any given day no matter how sure those bets might be. If I have 5 selections, I share that 20% among them according to how sure they seem. If they are 10 selections I share that same 20% among them. 0.5% of my bankroll is reserved for combos on my daily bets; that way if luck smiles and I win all my bets, I'll smile even further. It will take me losing all my bets continuously for more than seven days to lose all my money which frankly speaking is IMPOSSIBLE.
So the gist is:
1. Analyse well
2. Develop a good trading/betting strategy, one that works for you. (p.s 20% is considered high by lots of trained punters)
3. Stay disciplined. Don't chase your loses or you might just lose more.[/quote]Dude, you're on point. But let me inform you that this your system will only help you stay afloat and if you're on a bad run, you'll still lose your bank. Look, we're talking about a time when the price of beans and other food stuff is skyrocketing. A time when cost of living is becoming very unbearable for all. A time when inflation is becoming a bad reality. Now tell me. Will making stipends help you to survive? No. You have presented a good system but truth is, without a big bank, your system is not going to be worth much. The question many punters have been asking is how to grow your bankroll within a short period of time and in the safest way possible. I believe we should start looking into this because there's realy no more time to continue losing the way we are doing presently.

ebamma: Oyingbo don finish me today ,i been dey always tink say football betting na get rich scheme na 2day i realize say no be so,na thunder go fire germany ,make i go sleep,e be like say i go take leave for betting for sumtime

Funny. I also had a fantastic day today as well.

Read carefully through it and, as Lordest said, if there's anything you don't understand, please feel free to ask on this thread. ok?

[quote author=Young-Wise-Cash]Instead i pay 4 pick i beta leave dis thread nd do my picking myslf... Dropping ur option is nt a big deal. It just a help 2 dose dat ar confuse abt wot 2 bet[/quote]Very understandable. But if i may ask: Who exactly are you referring to?

Siena: If torturing to death truly served as a deterrent to would-be thieves, then Nigeria would have been one of the most crime-free nations on the planet. Instead, it's on the rise.

Lynching doesn't deter - all it serves is to create a more savage, cruel breed of criminal. They become harder, more resilient, and mete out even worse atrocities to their victims.

#JusticeforAluu4

Really?! Lynching or mob action doesn't deter? Well, it was nice conversing with you.

Siena: No need to get rude, I have a right to air my opinion. I would expect you to be able to do the same, without getting abusive to get your point across.

I don't see the correlation between a public lynching, and one serving jail time for an offence they haven't committed. One involves someone unjustly jailed (sometimes) the other involves a more irreversible injustice - someone beaten to death, without the benefit of a trial. Yes, justice sometimes backfires, all over the world, not just Nigeria.

If this was solved by mass murder, how would that help?
#JusticeforAluu4

Apologies for my rude post there. I take it all back. Now to your point, you say you don't see a correlation between the mob action and those serving jail terms huh? Well it's simple. Justice! Both instances involve people getting punishment for their actions. Although one is reversible, the other is irreversible as you rightly pointed out. That was why i asked you to go and seek right justice for those that you claim have a second chance (those that can still be helped) before screaming justice for aluu4 (those that can no longer be helped). Dude, have you even heard the real story of what happened that day (am talking aluu4 rightnow). They went to get money being owed one of them and unknowing or knowing to the others, one of them went with a gun. It was with that gun that he escaped leaving the others at the mercy of the mob. Now, if you were in that neighbourhood and you hear that they had a gun, wouldn't your first thought of them be thieves? Look, i can go on and on but justice misfired isn't a reason to stop justice all together. Shikena!

Siena: Torturing a human to death is sick, it says more about the person/s carrying out that act, than it does about the person being tortured. It's perverse watching, (and deriving pleasure from watching) people die slowly, and in agony.

Finally, yes, torturing to death is sick but it serves as a deterrent for those who intend to go into such horrible business of stealing in future. I hear that some militant groups in afganistan do hang heads of law breakers on wooding pavement to keep reminding others of the punishment that awaits them. To round it all off my friend, the world we live in is a cruel one. Its is a world of "kill or be killed". If you refuse to kill those robbers first (by handing them over to your corrupt police), they will be freed and eventually begin to multiply thereby increasing your chances of being killed by one of them in the near future. Obviously, you do not speak from your head but your heart. No problem, we're all entitled to our opinions I rest my case here.

Siena: If those robbers had killed my dad, then obviously I would have wanted them to face the full wrath of the law. As it was, one did get convicted. If they had killed my dad, getting his killer tortured to death wouldn't have brought my dad back, and my actions would have made me no better than his murderer. I still maintain, the Death Penalty is very different from a public lynching to death. I'm not an advocate, I'm just not made that way. I have a conscience, and if I lynched, or part took in a lynching, it would haunt me for the rest of my days.

I'm telling it as I see it, you may see things differently, and that's fine. Lynchers are always looking to cover their tracks, because they know what they're doing is illegal. If they're caught, they too could face death, depending on the country or state they commit the murder in. Because that's what it is, murder. "Jungle Justice" is just a name. Lynching is usually done by more than one person, sometimes a group. And in most cases, if the group is apprehended, and asked what the person they're beating to death has done, the majority won't even know what the person's crime was. All you'll hear will be, "dem say na thief", I hear say d man thief from one store" etc. Once the shout "Ole!" goes up, the precedent is set for a public lynching, with very few persons involved knowing why.

So yeah, public lynchers are blood-thirsty, they want to see blood spilled, regardless. Their children will grow up the same, accepting a public killing as the right thing to do. I'm sure amongst a mob, some folk have guns, or machetes, why do you think they never use them for a clean kill?

Because it'll be too easy, and it'll spoil their "fun."

#JusticeforAluu4

Dude, which law are you refering to? Do we have justice in this country atall? Dude, God forbid, you might eventually see those guys chilling in their ride next to yours in traffic the next day. Wait a min, is this not what i have been shouting since?!! Na wa o!!

*clapping*..This what i love about NL (The intellectual challenge). Well said mate! Well said!! In response, I will attempt to take out your points one after the other. Now, lets get to it, shall we? Good.

Siena: Lynching is barbaric, end of.

I absolutely agree.

Siena: It doesn't matter if you've suffered at the hands of armed robbers. Myself and my family have, on 4 different occasions, one in which my dad was beaten and badly injured. It doesn't mean I'm happy to see people lynched, and burnt to death.

Dude, it might not matter to you but to me, it matters a whole lot. If you can handle the emotion of being robbed four times, i can't. ok? Question is: Will you still be saying this if those robbers had killed your dad on one of those occasions? Think about that. And again, i myself can not stand the sight of a person being tortured or put to death. Stop making it sound like those opposing the motion to stop mob action, for now, are blood thirsty vampires. ok dude?!!!!

Siena: It's worth knowing it's not everyone that's lynched to death that's guilty.

It is also worth knowing that it's not everyone that's presently in prison today that's guilty. Mehn, sometimes, justice misfires! Go and get justice for those serving jail terms in prison without trial (hence not yet proven guilty, therefore innocent) before you come back here to run your mouth because you're privileged to sit behind a pc or a phone. Na wa o.

Siena: s commit crimes that carry the death penalty, when they're executed, it's done as quickly and as humanely as possible, not drawn out for hours.

Very true. But who told you that the whites didn't painfully torture criminals to death in the past? Sir, lets no be quick to forget that even the bible gives account of people that were stoned to death before and after the time of Jesus Christ. Besides, If you watch alot of white ancient movies, you'll realize that mob action was their major road to justice. The only difference was that they allowed the accused to give a few words of defence after a public vote is done to decide on the need for execution, which is done by either stoning, beheading or dismembering of body parts while the victim is still alive! (aarrrgghhh!!) BTW, are you aware that people are still being terribly tortured to death in those countries you're presently praising as we speak.
