Punters professional and casual love it and bookmakers hate it. But whatever they say person-to-person betting is here to stay. This book is the essential publication aimed at helping you to avoid the pitfalls and make the most of this new and vibrant form of betting.

Fixed Odds Sports Betting

Few people manage to make money from gambling and sports betting and even fewer still make a living from it. Written for both hardened and novice bettors alike, JosephBuchdahl's essential guide examines through various numerical techniques how fixed odds punters may learn to beat the bookmaker and protect profits through a sensible approach to risk management and turn high-risk sports betting into a form of low-risk investment.
Where this book scores most highly is in its positioning of sports betting as a form of investment and in its thorough comparative evaluation of various staking strategies and the risks associated with them.

Profitable Exchange Trading

The online betting exchanges are a fascinating new development in risk markets, a development which has turned the traditional bookmaking and gambling industry on its head. Betfair, Betdaq, Mansion and similar exchanges are transforming the way people view risk and the pastime formerly known as gambling or sports betting.
Betting exchanges are now just another risk market similar to pork bellies, DOW jones futures or foreign exchange markets. However, there are many significant advantages to these exchanges as well that outperform traditional risk markets. In "Profitable Exchange Trading", Peter Webb uses his financial background to provide a detailed analysis of the betting exchange phenomenon and introduce techniques and strategies to trade these markets profitably. This book is ideal for anyone who is interested in taking up betting exchange trading.
