I will pot a wrap up later but another 21 unit profit in game 2.

Low at 52 in Cheetahs Bulls game

A couple of pick numbers went over in that last game - pleased I am only betting virtual units at this stage.

Low at 48 in Tah's game.

Brent what do you mean "low in shirts"? Have no idea what you talking about, I am probably the only one who doesnt and im exposing my betting maturity.

Full explanation of this experiment to follow but in the inerim here are the results for week1:

Blues game +29
Force game +21
Cheetahs game -40
Crusaders game -40
Reds game-3
Lions game +3
Sharks game +40

First week profit 10 units

Comment: the rule changes have certainly ensured some running rugby and I feel there may actually be money to be made going high in selected games . The Reds, Blues and Lions look full of running but as they fall out of contention so their defence will weaken.

It was a volatile opening week and in the end probably a bit unfortunate not to be further ahead because there were a number of substitute tries.

Soe serious high number in the last game with only 5 tries but a final total of 77.

Thats 28 units lost in game 1 and we are low at 54 in the Reds v Crusaders game.

This tournament has started very differently to the experiments I have run previously and it will be interesting to see if it is just a short term set back for sellers or whether the new rules have changed the game and the bookmakers quotes are not yet taking this into account (bookmakers lag)

Won 34 in the Sharks game but did the maximum in Lions game. I will work out later what the Lions spread was but must have been around 250? Very few low numbers scoring tries and the backs having a field day.

Low at 57 in Canes game and if conditions are good I think we are in for a hiding and I will likely be buying in my personal capacity.

Sorry forgot to link to this explantion of spreads http://www.goodforthegame.co.za/rugby/s … iment.html

54 units down so far (thought it would be more) and we are low at 68 in Saders v Sharks game

And the sellers claw back with stop loss 40 units in the Stormers game.

Low at 60 in Reds game - conditions poor

Slow in adjusting and so was I - went high at 63 without checking conditions 

The forwards are all bundling over today - low at 65 in Force game. Not too bad in the end South!

We were low at 67 in Bulls game - all in all a good comeback for sellers this weekend and summary will follow early in the week.

We are low at 72 in the opening match between the Chiefs and Reds although personally I am hoping the experiment takes a knock here.

Will confirm at the end of the weekend but I think a combined 43 unit profit on the first 2 games.

Low at 58 in the Crusaders v Blues clash.

Low at 55 in Stormers game and 65 in Cheetahs game

Will be interesting to see how this weekend goes - low at 57 in game 1 the Chiefs v the Crusaders

Hit stop loss of 40 units in Tahs game and low at 60 in Brumbies game

Not a great weekend for sellers with stop loss in the Bulls game a a biggish knock in the Stormers match. Low at 63 in Reds v Force match.

Summary and wrap will follow Monday

Low at 60 in the Blues v Brumbies game

Oops forgot about no 20 going over for the Brumbies so stop loss for sellers in game 1.

Brent on the road, asked me to post that the Saders v Lions game was low at 88 and the Highlanders v Sharks low at 58

Low at 55 in Stormers game, sorry forgot to post

A 19 unit loss in the opener I believe - low at 68 in Brumbies v Chiefs game

Another 28 units for sellers and conditions certainly assisted.

Low at 62 in the Hurricanes v Sharks match

Low at 75 in the final game - Force v Bulls

and low at 55 in Force v Stormers

Low at 65 in Waratahs game

Finally got around to doing the recon for the last 3 weeks and some fascinating results.

The last 3 weeks have yielded 237 units profit for sellers taking the experiments running total to 302 units profit after 51 games.

At R100 a unit you would be sitting a handy 30k up just past the halfway stage of the competition.

Instead old lab rat here has been going high in his personal capacity 

LOL you are not alone there South
