The bot I am using to blog ‘Smoke and Mirrors’ also collects data that can be used the test the latest system by Paul Fowlie – ‘The Place To Lay’.

You are presented with a very simple manual of 5 pages (which includes the cover sheet) and a very simple system. However I did need to contact Paul for clarification of one of the “rules”. I did get a very quick response which clarified the rule.

The system is very simple and easy to operate, but, this is a live market system, so you need to be around, watching Betfair prices in the run up to the Off. As the title suggests, the idea is to identify a selection to LAY in a betting Exchange’s PLACE market. Becuase we are betting PLACE only, the liability is very low, so a loosing bet does not hurt us.

Whilst I hope to blog this every day, I will start by providing some back-test data, because I have it available!

I will track this using £10 level stakes per bet.
