£20 Daily Challenge - All Welcome

Hi ....... yes, just join in !

It's not a competition ....... the idea is that you have 20 quid a day to bet

A few months ago the regular posters started keeping a track of their bets on a monthly basis

I'm tempted to stop doing this and just treat it as £20 a day with no running total ...... my reasoning is that once you start posting a running total it changes the nature of my selections. I think the original idea of the thread was that you use your £20 to try out new bets, new strategies, accas, systems etc ...... I fiind that because I'm keeping and posting a running total I end up just backing 2/1 shots to try and stay in profit .....

I think it would be more fun to use the thread for 'left-field' bets and 'whim' selections ....... I think posting running totals skews my fun selections!

So I'm dumping the running total as from today ..... 

 

 

Just in case I ever pick up the running total again .......as of today 

this month +71.25

since thread started +1035.75

I must admit I like to keep a track of the running total, it keeps me disciplined. If you do not keep a track of your bets then I think you can be lulled in to a false sense of security, you remember the 25/1 winner but forget all the losers.

I tend to put my "fun" selection in the daily thread with a bit of an explanation for the logic behind it.

Fair enough ... I get that. 

I suppose that on this thread I don't want to be disciplined ...... it's a fun thread, I want to pick some wild selections and crazy accas and multiples !

I don't want to be concerned with protecting a monthly profit by picking short priced favourites which is what I tend to do if I'm tracking a running total

As a non competition thread we can all do our own thing !
