Lay Percentage Liability Staking Plan
The Lay Percentage Staking Plan is a dynamic betting strategy that adjusts your stake based on a fixed percentage of your current betting bank, allowing for responsive bankroll management in lay betting.
Key Features:
-
Stake Calculation: For each bet, the stake is determined by applying a chosen percentage to your current betting bank. For example, with a starting bank of £100 and Liability Percentage of 5% then your initial liability would £5. After each bet, the liability is recalculated based on the updated bank total.
-
Bankroll Responsiveness: This plan increases stakes following a win (when the bank grows) and decreases stakes after a loss (when the bank shrinks), aligning your betting amounts with your current financial standing.
Considerations:
-
Risk Management: Since lay betting involves potential losses exceeding the initial stake, especially at higher odds, it’s crucial to set a staking percentage that reflects your risk tolerance and to monitor the odds of your selections carefully.
-
Staking Adjustments: Some bettors implement a ‘ratchet mode,’ which allows stakes to increase with profits but prevents them from decreasing after losses, thereby locking in higher stakes as the bank grows. Additionally, using ‘Last Bet’ filters can help determine when to recalculate stakes, providing further control over staking adjustments.
The Lay Percentage Staking Plan offers a flexible strategy that adapts to changes in your betting bank, promoting disciplined bankroll management. However, it’s essential to carefully select your staking percentage and be mindful of the risks associated with lay betting at various odds levels.
