    I couldn't be arsed going through the whole procedure of editing each post to say which horses won, placed, or lost. So instead I'm just going to give the final balance at the end of each day of betting.

    Starting balance today: €100.00
    Closing balance today: €112.90

    Hey there.

    Are you still doing a so called 'lucky pick' for every race or are you doing a bit of research?

    Get well.

    Hey there.

    Are you still doing a so called 'lucky pick' for every race or are you doing a bit of research?

    A little from column A, a little from column B! :)

    I'm learning what I can, but I'm totally new to all of this and there's a lot to learn. But I do think I'm doing something right as most of my "losses" are at least running well and coming very close to placing. I wouldn't expect to be profitable at this straight away but it's fun trying!

    I've given up on this log because it seems when I don't keep a log, I do great. And when I do keep one, it's disastrous!

    But that's just me being superstitious, which is illogical. I've been doing well lately, so I'm going to post up my picks for today. If I don't do well, maybe my superstitious theory is actually correct! :eek:

    No need to be superstitious, the reason you are losing is because you do too many bets, wayyy to many. I would kick myself if I did 30 bets in a month, you did 30 in 1 day, and bet all your bank to boot!

    Its crazy and you can't make money that way.
