The Bets
The 'offical' TVB bets can be followed in 2 ways: either via the 'best bets' or via the 'matrix bets'.
The best bets are similar to conventional tips - there is usually one selection per race.
A scale from 0.5pts-2pts, is used for all selections.
The expectation is that around 100pts will be staked on best bets, over the season.
The maximum draw down hopefully won't exceed 30pts.
The matrix bets offer a more comprehensive way of betting in a race - there are usually multiple selections per race (as many as 5).
Normally, either 10 units or 20 units will be bet on the race (spread across selections).
The expectation is that around 1000 units will be staked on matrix bets, over the season.
The maximum draw down hopefully won't exceed 300 units
*Please note that staking has been changed over the years, meaning the comparing results across seasons, is only possible via ROI (Return on Investment).
