 Not sure why you assume it's easier for people to make a profit for a competition than day to day trading, Derek? I'd have thought most people were focussed on securing a profit when trading at all times.
Traders try to make a profit but at the same time take risks. It's easy to sacrifice profit for risk, i.e. quit after one trade winning £2 and move on to the next race.

Basically, you play a tournement differently to a cash game.

You already know you're going to profit last race ;)

I've lost 3 today and 1 on the first day so I've got no chance :lol:

I had a power cut just before the 15:25 and by the time I'd got a laptop and phone running wasn't able to recover, although to be fair I may not have got into profit on the race as I had a poor position from betting on it too early.

Messed up two races yesterday (won 5 out of 7).

100% today, so I'll finish the day at 12.
