Interpreting a racecard is an acquired skill. If it were easy picking winners, we would all be full-time punters. Becoming adept at finding winners and making a profit takes time, experience, and patience. These days, who's got the time to do that? Failing to do your homework leads to losses, but the main reason why people do not make a profit from gambling or trading is a lack of discipline.

Discipline is crucial. If you stick to a pre-determined methodology, you learn to become objective. Bet alongside us and you can bet without emotion, just like a professional. Trading is what we do for a living, and we at Bestbet are happy for you to benefit from our insight. Bestbet can take the stress out of punting, by providing you with informed selections.

We consistently make a decent profit because we have built up our bank to the point where we can sensibly stake up to £50 a time. But it has taken time, patience, commitment, and, along the way, a few mistakes as well.

We do not promise to make you rich overnight. You are not going to be in a position to quit your job within a month, having gained financial independence. If that's what you were expecting, sorry to disappoint you. Our members enjoy our service, not because we keep them happy with winners, but because we help them achieve their aim of a long-term profit.

Now, here's some advice that will give you an advantage over the bookies:

1) Don't be afraid of a price. If you fancy an outsider, don't be afraid to put your usual amount on it.

2) Steer clear of all hyped bets. Also, cut out fun bets (e.g. in soccer, naming the first goal-scorer along with predicting the final score) - they are usually unprofitable.

3) Do everything in your power to be disciplined, to control your betting. Set strict limits on how much time and money you're going to invest. Only bet what you can afford to lose. For advice on how to manage your gambling go to Gambleaware or Gamcare.

4) Keep a record of all your bets, include the selections, prices, profit/loss etc. This is a great way to see where you have an edge and where you don't. Where you don't, consider dropping those markets/systems from your portfolio.

5) Never chase your losses, there's always tomorrow. Similarly, never increase your stake, in an accumulator-like fashion, when you're on a winning run. And if you are on a losing run, try not to get too down. If you're making good bets, the winners will come.

6) Don't gamble in order to escape from stress or boredom. Keep up other interests and hobbies - don't let gambling take over your life.
