So after 37 bets, I've managed to turn €50 into €190, which took approx four days. I've banked €110, so my balance now stands at €80.

Out of the 37, I've won 31 and lost 6, thats an 84% win rate at the moment, I have no idea if thats good or not thou, but seems decent, shall be interesting to see if I can keep it at this level or even improve. I rarely make any huge bets, preferring to make multiple small ones rather than have all my eggs in one basket.

I hope someone else has found this vaguely interesting so far, I kind of like this logging craic, have added pressure not to screw up, because if I do, I have to share it with the world

On the face of it a safe enough bet, but the MLS can be a bit mad at times..

Bet #38:

Selection: 4/9 - San Jose
Event: San Jose v Chivas
Total stake for this bet: €25.00
Potential Return: €36.11

If SJ play well they can win this by 2/3 goals, so lets hope they do, if not it could very easily be a draw or a 1-0 loss.

Should have been 2/3-0 up, instead concede in the last five minutes and draw 1-1

Cant see the screenshots on the mobile but your trucking along nicely. Good luck.

Have had a quiet day or two, trying to refrain from betting on things for the sake of it. Looking at doing an England/Belgium Double maybe, @2.4 both will be chastised if they don't win..

OnTheCounter

Dont think anyone will chastise you after the game. They may comment on the bankroll strategy or wonder if you are sure there is value at the prices but this forum is good for not being aftertiming dickheads if someone loses a bet.

Randomfriend

Oh I forgot, I made a bet #45! was 4 quid on federer to win when he was 2 sets down in the tennis, so that was a loss.

Now to the good news; Bet #46 and #47 enclosed in this link

Balance: €219.71

edit: Incase anyone can't see the links, it was Ireland/Russia win and England/Belgium, two doubles.

Randomfriend

Think I'll take out 100 quid in case I do anything silly.

Balance: €119.71

I think once I hit 200 again, (yes once!) I'll take another 100 out, from then on in I'll build the bankroll and not withdraw until I reach 500, If I can possibly build towards that.

Bet #48:

Selection: 203/1000 - USA and Draw
Event: Jamaica v USA World Cup 2014
Market: Double chance
Total stake for this bet: €19.71
Potential Return: €23.71

USA haven't been in amazing form and minus Donovan so not sure they will win this, was tempted to go for it but playing relatively safe with the double chance.

Edit: Go 1-0 up after a minute, but 2-1 down now, bad Americans are bad

Randomfriend

Been a bit busy for the last few days and will be for the next wile, so no time to really do much betting, so consider this log postponed for the moment, taking my money out to pay rent this week

Might give the tenner thing a lash again just as something to keep me ticking over.
