A loss this week of 7.42% as 3 teams which the algorithm layed won (Bolton, Wigan and Fulham).   Whilst a losing week is never pleasant it’s all within the expected performance of the algorithm over time.  However, this has not stopped me revisiting the algorithm model to add futher enhancements and try and squeeze out even better performance.  As long as I can avoid any large losses and keep building the Fund week to week toward the target £1million I know I should be pleased.

The betting Fund now has gains to date of 206% since the Fund started on 29 September 07.  The Fund is now 94 days ahead of its target balance at this stage in the bid for £1million after 5 years - see progress here.
