I've also saluted you for putting your winnings in your sig.

Without wishing to cause offence, I think, technically, PY is correct though as £125 was won through this bet with Higham, leaving a loss of £15 on handicap betting over all the rounds.

I made £125 profit from the Higam bet, lost £105 profit from the Higham bet leaving me with £20. I'm now £110 in profit so how has the Higham bet put me in profit. I understand that calling it quits after round 1 would have made me more profit than I'm now showing but the fact that Ive lost it and started to recoup the losses shows my handicap bet's have won me money.

All in all it's this simple, I started with £0 and currently have £110, my task was to bet on every Warrington match and show a profit at the end of the year.

I dont doubt you have made money, so far, over the rounds. But your handicap bets over all the rounds have lost you money. It can be expressed like this (over all rounds)

Your winnings - your losses = profit.

(Higham Winnings + handicap winnings) = profit.

£125 + handicap winnings = £110

handicap winnings = £110-125

handicap winnings = £-15

R OK i see your point, if it wasn't for the Higham bet id be £-15 is what your saying.

If the injuries to us are true saints odds look very big.

Yeah thats all's and it's true to say you are up £110 based on your betting all season up to now. Even PY cannot argue with that.
