Show Notes
Betting and data analyst Joseph Buchdahl has written four books on betting and the psychology surrounding it, here he talks to Andrew & Mark. They discuss the “wisdom of the crowd” (and how you can profit from it); losing runs and how to deal with them; why winning punters will have bad spells and should expect them; what separates a good and average bettor; the mentality needed to maintain a clear head through inevitable poor spells; why losing punters keep on betting; the short-cut to working out if a sports advisor knows what they're doing. For anyone who ever places a bet, this is worth listening and learning from. You can follow Joseph on Twitter @12Xpert Please follow us on Twitter: @probetpodcast.

Anthony Kaminskas (AK) has made a rapid amount of ground in a short period of time. Having started his "journey" as a cashier in a Manchester betting shop, to running trading teams for Paddy Powers, pro-punting for a living, on-course bookmaking, and now, he is just about to take his next step...online bookmaking. If ever there was a man who was in a hurry to progress, it's AK. He tells us about how he started out "knowing nothing", and spent his time learning from clever people. How he would only bet on the sports where he felt he had an edge; be it football, greyhounds, racing or golf. This is a man that only wants to put his money down when the odds are in his favour. He tells us of some of his strategies that made sure he was betting with the percentages on his side. And now, he wants to take on the big operations as an online bookmaker. His unique selling point will be to treat his customers with respect and "not as a number",.....and to lay the bets of shrewd punters. As with everything he has ever done, this is a way of adding to his knowlegde. Very few people have the energy and depth of thought as AK. This is a podcast that will be enjoyed by everyone who likes to have a bet, and wants to learn. Please follow us on Twitter: @probetpodcast. Instagram: probetpodcast Thank you for listening.
