Staying out of the bookies log

    So, I had been up on the horses for quite some time, and got into the awful habit of heading into the bookies, and resulted in me being down a few quid over the last while. Decided to start a log to stop myself getting into that horrible habit. I was starting to get upset about losing cash that I didn't really have, so taking this opportunity to start afresh.

    Starting bank is 100 euro. Max 50% of bank a day, max single stake 25. If I hit 200 euro, ill withdraw the original 100. When the bank is gone, its gone.

    Horses/NFL/Football.
