Minor things that make you happy

Nice one mate. I was going to throw £50 on ht ft but I couldn't be bothered going the bookies . I closed my online accounts last week to stop betting lol .A bit gutted but today's been more than good enough
I'm banned from 2 online. They don't want my business.
Fair play to Stan James.
 

They are snakes.

All Bookies are snakes. I had a great September/October following on a poorish summer........I'm limited to £49 quid.

I welcome it since it will effectively stop me gambling. Online, by phone or in shop they have real or virtual paper trails and if you get a grand or two up they will fold you......we have no chance.

Without being self important its true to say I'm a controlled gambler who knows the rules and I can beat the book by always focussing on Expected Value but its no use since if you beat them they will limit or close you and frankly it just takes too much time trying to get on with a decent stake.....even the cash over the counter shops know exactly where they stand with regular heavyish punters.

Getting friends to run or place bets is a waste of time since they simply don't get the urgency to steal prices before they disappear.

Gambling is pointless even when you win. If you are not losing money you are losing time trying to fox the cowardly vermin into taking a bet.

Without being self important its true to say I'm a shrewd enough controlled gambler who had cut out impulse betting and who knows the rules and I can beat them but its no use since if you beat them they will close you and frankly it just takes too much time.

i don't win big in fact this year I've had hardly any luck . But I've never been the type to hand the bookies all my dough . I can control my gambling luckily it's the drink I struggle with once I get going lol. I only closed my accounts last week as the Utd psv game ruined another acca , I got a cob on and said I would never bet again lol .
 
The missus just had The Graham Norton Show on. Had The Corrs on at the end. Garbage song like, but oh my, 10 years on and all three birds still look absolutely stunning (the drummer has even improved over the years!). Jim looks like Michael Flatley's stunt double, mind.

Its all wrong mate.

I took them to the cleaners stealing prices on the 3 place betting in South African racing....you know Vaal, Turfontein etc. Their traders were too lazy to respond to price changes by changing the 3 place prices and I jumped on whenever I saw an open door....candy from babies. To be honest mate I won thousands.

Now none of the filthy cowardly vermin will let me so much as blow my nose. One of the girls in my local shop ( they know exactly what the heavier punters win and lose you know ) told me they had been told to "put that bas.... on a leash.

Not worth the bother.

If they are given a licence there ought to be a requirement that they lay any bet to lose up to a certain minimum. In Australia now they are introducing that the Book has to lay to lose up to a thousand dollars. So if you have a bet at say 5/1 any punter however successful MUST be allowed on up to 200.

Only right and proper otherwise we end up with what we have here with anyone showing half a brain given the gate and only mugs allowed on. Frankly it should be illegal.
 
Being buzzed and writing a bunch of crap in an attempt to answer something you do not care much about just to get over with. And then reading it and finding it's actually brilliant.
