Review for week ending 31/01/02

Yet another week when betting against Man United cost us dearly. Their 4-0 win at Bolton resulted in the biggest loss of the week and despite having five winning bets out of nine overall the week showed a small loss of Ł69. This now means that the total potential profit for the season so far is Ł6,479 (an average of nearly Ł360 profit per week). These potential bets are determined using the guidelines on the Weekly Reviews page.

	A sell of the Man United supremacy over Bolton at 1 with Cantor Sport (Soccer Spreads rating 0.44 - Makeup 4) for Ł150 per goal would have produced a loss of Ł450.
	A sell of the bookings index in the Sunderland / Middlesboro game at 48 with IG Index (Soccer Spreads rating 39.8 - Makeup 45) for Ł10 per point would have produced Ł30 profit.

Please note that potential bets are only recorded if the difference between the Soccer Spreads rating and the best spread available is at least a quarter of the spread volatility (e.g. in order to bet on the total corners in a Premiership match the difference between the Soccer Spreads rating and the spread being offered must be at least 0.9). The bet size is determined by using the formula: (840 * Difference between the Soccer Spreads Rating and the spread) / (Volatility * Volatility).
