**£50 on Chelsea victory tonight to win £8**
£52 lay of 0-0 scoreline in Panath v Anorthis game to win £5
£3 Cardiff to beat Burnley to win £8.50


** Have changed my mind on this one and sold the bet. I can't justify betting on a 1/6 shot with; Kalou, Alex, Malouda all playing and Lampard suspended (I had forgotten about Lampard's suspension when I place the original bet).

Ouch. I find that when things go against you like that it is best to have a couple of days break.

The Norwich bet was a good one but just unfortunate as they dominated the game but didn't get any luck. The United bet was a bit daft because they didn't need to win the game but having seen how bad Aalborg were against celtic I thought a home win was obvious.

It means at some stage I am going to have to do a big and risky bet to get back on track but I will wait until I see one that I feel really confident about.

Ah well, back to my normal betting pattern, the 3% experiment is consigned to the bin.

I had to risk a 25% bet because I was quite far behind my target - this will always be the problem with the 3% challenge - finding enough "certainties" that means you don't have to chase the target.

Hmm. when I have followed this methodically I have never put the whole lot on at more than 1.1, on 1/3rd at 1.3 etc.

But I get the need for quick results too. That's it. Fuck it. Jan 1st I start with £50. Onwards. This time next year Rodders.

Well I'm on my 8th tenner and I've just dumped the £45 I've got (thanks largely to Mark Boucher) on a double.

Reading to win v Watford.

Ospreys to win v Munster.

Apart from one lucky punt the best bet I've had in years was on Dossena to score 1st against the bar codes.

What happens if you have a game in a accumulator that is called off?
[/quote]

That game just gets taken out of the accumulator. Dont worry, you havent automatically lost.

Cheers Piedro.

I've got the gooners, The league leaders, and the mancs (i know i know) + Reading have allready come in. So i fully expect the chavs, stoke and bolton to win this weekend.

No problems mate *coughs* cunt.
 
Fuck it i bet on certs and they never come in so change of tactic and I'm going for punts that are very unlikely from now on.

I've just dumped on Lucas to score at anytime @ 11/2.
 
I am changing my attack. Pleased with last weekends 5.55 acca I tried the same this weekend.

Last week, £10 theoretical pot, £2 on the acca. Won £9 odd. Pot £19 ish.

Put £2.50 on a five way acca at 4.5. One game called off, the other 4 won. Paid approx 3.1 so will win £5.25. Pot now £24 ish. Ahead of target after 8 days.

At 3% compounded for the week you need to be about 29% up per week. After two weeks I should be at £16.64. I am at £24.
 
It won't last V.

Noone ever makes it.

This thread is cursed. My gambling has never been the same
