Further to mine and Al's many coloured baseball systems ( :D ) I'm wondering whether anyone can suggest a good staking system for something along these lines.

In general the system will win 3 from 5, with a maximum losing run of likely no more than 6. The bets will be odds on almost exclusively but no lower than 1/2 99% of the time.

Does anyone have any suggestions of a staking system that could work with this?

Well 3/5 gives 60%
If I guess at the average winning odds at .6
Lose 40% of the time.
The result does not look good.
60%*.6 -40% is -4% meaning that over time you can expect to lose 4% of the total amount staked.

Does not matter how you stake it you lose.

If you still have the same win percentage and the odds are .7 or above you could then look to a staking plan.

Thanks for that Marcus. I'll monitor the odds for a week and post them back if they are over .6.
