Have you ever considered, or attempted to play the "3 draw strategy" on Serie A and/or Bundesliga? Why?
"The major reason why I use the draw strategy on the Premier League is football jerseys
because it is a league I know very well. When compiling the stats for Premier Betting you get to see how various teams perform and you can asses whether or not the draw is of any value.
This strategy would no doubt work in other leagues but you would need to know how the teams performed week in week out."

As a budding punter I'm still struggling to identify a good strategy. I've mostly tended to make two bets - a safe bet (max 2.0) and a risky bet with better odds. What nuggets would you share as respects betting strategy?
"I tend to try to go against the grain and try to avoid short odds selections. If you have been following my selections you will see that we are well over 10 points up. This means in effect I have 10 more bets before I start showing a loss. If you back a selection at 1.5 and 2 of the 3 go down you then have to find 3 winners on the trot just to break even. So avoid short priced favourites. But most importantly whatever bet you choose ensure that it contains value."

I don't understand what you mean by only needing one draw to make a profit. Please explain how the system works.
"Generally the draw is priced at over 3.00 and usually around 3.40. If Pittsburgh Steelers jersey
you place 3 bets at £10 on 3 selections at 3.40 you have outlaid £30. If one of the bets is successful you will receive £34 so you have made £4.00 profit."

I have been losing heavily on games for the past three weeks now including the international matches. Here S sat watching all your draws going the right way without staking a penny! Am I going to stake each game separately or there is way of me putting all of it together and just needing one match to make a profit?
"If you look at my selections I would back each individual one separately. Last year doing this I made over 30 points level stakes profit.
"Now for a little bit of interest you could back my selections in doubles which again you would be in profit but you are going to have a lot of losers
"But before placing a bet always make sure that your bet represents value by using some kind of rating system. If you go to our website at Premier Betting you will see our ratings compared to the bookmakers odds this will give you some indication if you are obtaining value in your selection."

A tip that you give on a weekly basis and which I like is backing three games to end draw and if one of them ends draw, the punter will end with profit. However, I find choosing these games quite a difficult task because if none of those three matches end in a draw there would be quite a big loss ( x3 ).
I would like to ask you: Which strategy do you use to try and predict that Minnesota Vikings jersey
at least one game will end in a draw?
"When beginning to asses how to select the draws I see how certain types of teams perform against each other. This is highlighted in the Premier Football Betting Handbook. Then I look to see if the draw price offers any value and then I asses the form of the 2 teams involved.
