JoeyB Posted July 8, 2014 Share Posted July 8, 2014 Thought a thread would remind me to remember to record my wins/loses accurately and not get lazy with keeping track... So I only starting betting three weeks ago (roughly), the night before the Italy-England game I suddenly had the urge to put £5 on Italy 2-1 correct score for 12/1. I have no idea why tbh, but I did and it came through, so £60 up. Previous to this I had a go at an introductory offer on William Hill, risk free £20 on slots. I won £65 profit from my spins. Unfortunately I lost about £90 after this from sports betting, went up a bit then tried chasing losses, newbie error. I've slowly done a bit better and also won a bit on a roulette offer so... Up £95 as of now. Most of my bets will be football, some may be on horses, but these will be very low value multiple bets, more for a bit of entertainment, though wins are always nice! There's no hard and fast rules, which is clearly risky, but that's how I roll, just no more chasing losses with higher bets. However if I do not know the teams well myself (random friendlies of obscure teams), I will only bet on low return/risk situations. My limit of losses is to go down to £70 up, after which I'll stop until next month (topping up balance £10 if it runs out each month). Current aim is to get to £150 up + >£10 in online betting account. So what with it being WC semi's, tonight's bets.... Brazil v Germany £8 on Under 2.5 @ 8/15 £2 on Under 1.5 @ 7/4 Double £5 on Germany/Argentina to Qualify, 280/100 Max potential profit: £18.19 Max losses: £15 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeyB Posted July 9, 2014 Author Share Posted July 9, 2014 Re: JoeyB's betting journey... Totally went against the "don't chase the losses" rule, but it was obvious where the match was heading, so I placed a few £1 correct score bets a little after ht (7-0, 7-1, 8-0, 9-0, 9-1) 7-1 came through at 11/1 so... Brazil v Germany £8 on Under 2.5 @ 8/15 = LOST £2 on Under 1.5 @ 7/4 = LOST £1 on 7-1 correct score @ 11/1= WON £1 on 7-0, 8-0, 9-0, 9-1 = LOST Total -£3. Double: £5 on Germany/Argentina to Qualify 280/100 (Pending) Bank £92. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeyB Posted July 9, 2014 Author Share Posted July 9, 2014 Re: JoeyB's betting journey... joey you must post selections before the event mate :-) I appreciate I didn't with the 7-1 etc in-play with Germany, but the rest I have I believe? The Samsung Bluewings match kicked off at 11:30, horse acca had first race of today to run at 2:30. OH wait, are you meaning I must paste the bet receipt for the horse acca before any winnings?

danj2202 Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 Re: JoeyB's betting journey... No he means you cant suddenly decide after a match that you have had some bets in play. You either post them with proof when you place them or leave them out basically Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You either post them with proof when you place them or leave them out basically Ah I see, my bad, I had placed them via mobile in bed at the time and started work at 4am and thus posted them when I returned. For future reference, is there a reason my horse acca .jpg would not appear as an image and is only a link? I tested wrapping tags around it on two other forums and it appeared as I'd expect, but for some reason it's a link here, no biggie though.
