Where do i start!! started the day with 350 in the bank !
All winnings from a few good punts last week !
Anyways i didnt have time to sit on the laptop all day and back this and that so i decided to place a few big trebles and a fourfold !! max spend 200 euro as you should always view tomorrow as another day .

so that was 150 spend which is alot for me as a student who as a weekly income of about 0 with the vacant job i have and living at home but clearly has a small gambling problem anyways lets continue i also follow a page on facebook which give great greyhoind tips so i stuck 20 on a dog running at 8.58 FYI TRAP3 SHEFFIELD ..HUGE PART OF THE STORY..THE other 30 was lost playin poker and that mini roulette which always gets me when im feeling lucky or flush !!
ok so i logged out and forgot about the racing as i did my daily chores ..sometime later while doin my daily chores and still thinking about the racing and checking times and thinking which horse i backed may have been running i logged into betfair at 6.20pm and clicked cash out button ,,where i always go to see my multiples ..as i could see i wasnt far off the jackpot as i was hittin over a grand if abated and chilbery hills won !so i tuned in to watch abated .. he went on to lose by a length or so which really down heartened me after been on such a high 15 minutes earlier .. he killed off all my bets bar 1 and left the 40 accum standing alone .. i needed ruby to pull a even money shot out of the bag for me at 6.50 and then chilbery hill to do the business .. i prayed for ruby to win which he did and then i scouted the chilbery hill race once more to see if the cash out of 248 would be wise but as other horses in the bet drited it was returing just under 500 beans so i decided to let it run and was pretty confident .. Then i saw the dreaded end a tipping website which i look at from time to time tipped chilberry hill as there bet of the day ! there bet of the day would be more succesful if the renamed it there lay of the day.. gg.com useless bastards i quickly tried to navigate from the live video feed to cash out button and claim my 248 euro but it was too late .. the race had started and can be viewed here !!

probably the second most controversial race of the day apart from the first at ballinrobe but anyways what the jockey did easing before the line summed up my luck in gambling easing before the line after rallying like the great tony mccoy to get ahead ! see it for yourself ..he was asked by me on his twitter why he eased up and is he a fixing **** but no reply was obvious !! https://twitter.com/Michae1Byrne
at this point i went on full tilt i broke my promise to myself not to touch the remaining 150 .. i was gone from hittin the jackpot high to depressed out of my head and wondering why i didnt cash out earlier i quickly lost the remaining 150 with these two bets !!
100 euro double
20:45 Bangor - Hired Hand 11/8 -- Lost --
21:05 Ffos Las Catflap 11/8 -- Lost --
and this 50 double
20:55 Ballinrobe - Film Director 3/1 -- Placed --
21:05 Ffos Las - Catflap 13/10 -- Lost --
so my balance now reead 0.00 and i felt so bad ..like sitting at the laptop thinking what a fool i am .. why did i bother ..felling like a idiot when suddenly 20 euro pops into the balance ..from where i dont have a clue !
there was one race left the 9.05 at ffos las where by sticking 20 on the fav wasn't gonna bring me back my losses and you can all clearly see i like my favorites WHY because i believe there favorites for a reason ha worst advice i ever got but at the end of the day im a favorite backer
anyways i looked the race up and down and put it on this beauty why beacuse the price was goin to help me out big time and i had a feeling !!
spic and span !!

ok so now i look at it as extreme luck and that feeling i had was more than likely because he was the oldest horse in the race and i had proberly backed it before years ago ..it was a panic bet for the reason the race was off in a minute and at the time i knew it WASNT goin to win !!
so as i hit a new high again and felt on top of the world with all my money back do u think i stopped there not a chance !!
to cut this story short as it is draggin out i did the following bets
