F^CK ME. really fed up tonight. was playing around bored trying to skim £20 off Arsenal-Everton market. Anyway my wife says lets pop out for an hour. Got back realised I'd left a £1,000 up on Arsenal. Didn't even fancy them just playing the odds. Anyway, on getting back and finding out what I'd done and that Arsenal were losing I managed to take my medicine it cost me £700. Having a few beer to numb my mind and forget my error. Bad luck or what?

its bad luck cos he could have got in and they were winning.
i had something similar once where i backed david villa to be top scorer in the euros, put up a lay at much lower odds thinking it might go too low if he scored. i went out expecting to get back around kickoff but the bus didnt turn up. by the time i got home he had scored twice and obviously my lay had been gobbled up and the price was a hell of a lot lower. someone got a massive gift cos of that bus not turning up, around 2k of my profit wasted.

my worst nightmare was when i traded an arsenal match (used to trade the day/night before the match) ..
I layed Bolton for 7.5k .. planning to trade out all green (would've worked-normally did)
It was an early kick off 12.30 and i simply slept in (knackered) i tuned in about 20 mins late and arsenal were 0-1 down :(
I simply sat staring at the screen for almost an hour .. wishing them to score to take a small loss
In the end i almost accepted a huge loss and backed the draw heavy --- they equalised in the 84th minute
I couldn't lay off quick enough & lost about £500 --a right royal result :|
I did similar once on an Inter match .. they played every sunday .. but was before christmas and played on the saturday .. i didn't even realise they were playing !!!!!!

if your laying for that much you make sure your up with more than enough time
geordie never made a mistake in his life (nap)
that's the point though ..
if you do it all the time you're gonna slip up once .. and once is enough

Naydam didn't realise you could take other peoples money
One should appreciate that losing is always a possibility. If you can't lose...you can't win.
