Betting

My brother used to bet a lot and he had some good wins, especially on horses where he knows his stuff.

Ultimately though bookies only exists because they make money, which means they take more than they give out. Lots of people like to think they're different, skilled etc, but the statistics obviously suggest that you'll ultimately end up worse off, like my brother did. True, he enjoyed the rush of betting and gambling, so he derived some enjoyment out of it, but if your aim is just making money then have a good think about it. It becomes addictive, especially that 'last bet' to try to save a bad day...

(For the record I won't gamble, even the lottery ; )

I only bet on first goalscorer score casts. Had van Persie to score first and Arsenal to win 2-1 at Anfield a couple of seasons ago, it was a £5 bet with returned £260. The next day I had United beating Chelsea 3-0 with another £5 bet, would have returned £120. .. United were 3-0 up until the 90th minute when Chelsea scored a late one.

C**ts
