I’ve been having some fun trying to get my head around the winter Olympics when I can. I’ve picked on the the sports where a milliseconds lapse in concentration can hand the medal to somebody else. Basically just laying the current leader or red hot favourite in the hope that they make a mistake or somebody gets over the line a tenth of a second faster. I must admit I can’t quite get it right at the moment, but that is how you learn, by making mistakes.<\/p>\n

I’ve done some research and listened to some of the legends like Franz Klammer for tips on who’s in form. I traded a fair amount on Brode Miller but he has just missed out on top spot twice with a silver and bronze. But it’s been quite fun and he has provided something good to trade off.<\/p>\n

I’ll look again when the next big winter event comes around. Hoepfully I won’t have to wait for another four years as I think there is a lot of potential in these sports which are highly variable.<\/p>\n
