Will post my picks and history in this thread.

Will only post results where I have stood to gain or lose >$200.

Please post your tips in here, as well as basic reasoning for them. Usually I think there is value in lines when:
1. the market has over-reacted to an abnormal performance
2. a side is dramatically overbacked because they are popular.

I have my results from the past 3 months and everything before April 2008. Currently waiting on Betfair to email my statement from the intervening period (ridic hot streak in there) and i will update my results. Also please note that the results are net of commission (subtract 5% from wins for real results).
