Madness Loses The Plotto! *(A Novelty GH)*

[madnesstiger]

Madness... LOSES THE PLOTTO! The story began yesterday evening as I decided to place £84 on Zenit to beat Man United in the UEFA Super Cup @ 6.4. They duly obliged and set me on my way to the 2nd big win of the evening, in the ATP US Open in the tennis. A lay of Marat Safin @ 1.54 (£220 liability) when 1 set up against Tommy Robredo took a fortunate turn as Robredo took the match 3:1 in a stop-start match due to rain delays. By the early hours of this morning I had made around £825 profit from the initial outlay. As I was close to trading out the tennis bet early, I see the situation as if I have won an extra £200 by letting the bet run. So, with thanks to an impressive Russian football performance, and another case of Safin 'losing it' in the tennis, I present to you, the reader, probably the daftest GH seen in a long time! I have put £100 of the withdrawal to one side for a set of garden furniture, which leaves me with £100 for today's GH, which will work as follows...

1. Purchase £100 worth of National Lottery scratchcards. In order of preference... blue/green £100k followed by £250k black. I chose these as they have most remaining top prizes (worth winning) from the current batch of game cards available. As shown here.
2. Unless I win big from the scratchcards (very unlikely!), all the winnings from these cards will be used to buy Lucky Dip tickets for tonight's Rollover UK Lotto draw. I would be expecting around 20 tickets, but who knows, could be more, could be less!

Simple as that really! I was going to 'wheel' a set of numbers, but due to time restrictions, I will just go ahead with Lucky Dips. Unfortunately I wont be able to update this thread with photos of proof as such throughout the day, but hopefully you will take my word for it as to how the 'experiment' goes. As I just mentioned, I am taking this GH as a bit of fun, and as an experiment, if you will, as to just how much you can expect to win from a sample of £100 worth of scratchcards! DO NOT TRY THIS AT HOME UNLESS YOU ARE INSANE!! It is purely down to the fortunate events from last night that I can try this, and is not something I will make a habit of. If nothing else, please view this as 'curiosity put into practise'. I am expecting to update the thread later today by informing you that I have nothing left of the £100 outlay. However, watch this space! MT :ok
