Slookie's Log

Hi all. Have been dabbling in small bets over past few years, and now I want to challenge myself to see if I can turn a small stake of €25.44 into €50 first, then €100 etc. Small steps, small goals. Had a good few bets yesterday, but have decided to keep a log.

As you can see from last night, I had a couple of unlucky bets (is there such a thing!!). Chelsea, Rangers and Celtic treble, think it was first time since May 2007 that both Scottish teams lost! Also had €4.44 on over 1.5 goals in 4 games, and who let me down....Chelsea! So that was another one that would have come in on another night. Then backed 4 favourites in basketball last night before bed, and 3 of them lost. Was just saying on another thread, that I think it might be worth backing the underdog in each NBA game, and putting small stakes on cross doubles or trebles. If only 2 came in, you'd be up I'd say. I also think that over 1.5 goals is way to go...roughly needing 3 for an even money bet.
So any bets I place from now on will be logged. Hopefully this will help keep me away from the poker and casino. Earlier this year I started off with €4 in the casino, and after a week I was up to roughly €400 using the Martingale system on roulette. Lost it all and needless to say it hasn't worked since! All bets will be on PP.

hi all. Am back after a spell away. I got my account up to €100 and withdrew it before I went on holidays. Have started back by depositing €50, so am going to start from scratch with that. I need help on how to post screentshots. I can follow as far as getting it in Paste and saving it, but after that I'm lost. Can someone advise me, as it's alot easier for posting bets rather than typing them all in manually.
Thanks

Anyone help, please!!

Mr E

Once you save it on your PC (must be GIF, JPG or PNG), you can upload it to imageshack or a similar site. Once it's up there, add a new post to this thread and use the icon to insert an image (use the link provided by imageshack after you upload the image there).

Thanks for that!

Got a €2 free bet so put this on.

I had to snip out the giant picture dude, it was filling up the whole page. Re-edit it with a smaller one if you can.

Best of luck with the log.

Ya no hassle...just getting used to it! Had a mixed night last night..could have done with Gareth Bale scoring. Had to hit the crossbar AND miss a penalty! Anyway Balance now stands at €55.

Small in play bef of €3 on over 2.5 goals in South Korea U23 v Iran U23. Currently Iran 1 up after 30 mins.

Also have that Georgia Salpa bet on since July!! It was supposed to have been settles about a week after that but they keep saying we will get on to you when it is settled.

Ok that bet came in...it was 3-1 after 55 mins! Thought I'd have to sweat a bit longer for that! Anyway put a few golf bets on for Dubai World Championship...tips courtesy of Value Seeker. By the time I got on Karlsson, he was -3 after 8 but still went with him.

Next few bets..

Did a few bets last night and didnt get the chance to put them up. So here goes...

The horses were just picked from the paddy power tips...got lucky as I know nothing about them. Then the 5 soccer games with the over bets were from some Asian League. It was on Live Betting and there was only 20 minutes gone in each game. The goals were flying in so figured it would be a scorefest.

The rest were NFL games from last night.

Got on Headshots accie for tomorrow. Smaller stakes lol!
