I've no idea. My gambling budget is £500 per year Jan to Dec and when it's gone, it's gone and that's me done until next Jan.
Sometimes I'm up at the end of the year but will still stick to my £500 for the next year. |

If you could get another chance in life, would you gamble guys? I would most definitely not.
|
|
By:
Absolutely I would, and I'd have worked harder/turned over more through the noughties.

How old are you tmm. About 60 I reckon. So that's half a million a year, or nearly £1400 a day.
You're either very well off or very bad at arithmetic.  I'm pushing 70 and have gambled nearly every day since I was a teenager, and I reckon about £1m. |

ive bet 60 million in one bet.
I did a bungee jum a few years ago and thats risking your life. A man of my charisma, intelligunce and natural attraction I must easily be worth 60 mill. |

I may have slightly exaggerated Kenny, lol. Hard to put a specific figure on it but probably between 10 and 15 as I started young at 10. Today I have bet about 2k, with a total loss of 90 quid. Money going back and forward all day long. It`s boredom. I wish I had your discipline. Hope you are well mate.

Not sure but wouldn't think anywhere near a million.
I enjoy a bet and love a day at the horseracing followed by a night at the dogs. |

Ah, so we're talking about money staked, I should have realised that. In that case about 20 million.lol I have to be sensible and shrewd these days as mu outgoings exceed my income by about £500 |

By:
Well done kenny, a profit is a profit. Yes, total stakes, not losses.
|
|
By:
To clarify, if you put up a lay of £20 @ 10.0, imo that counts as a stake of £180?
|
|
By:
If you counted it like that, iawn, then I'd be in billions because I used to lay books on here.
|
|
By:
slight exaggeration, but many millions.
|
|
By:
I think you have to count it like that because that's the amount you stand to lose.
If you bet £50 on a 1/5 shot, you wouldn't count it as £10. |
|
By:
A grotesque amount! Paid out a massive sum in commission and premium charges in the process.
|
|
By:
As a rough guide and if my sums are correct, someone on here for 10 years on a 4% commission rate (17,000 points), would have won/lost total of £3,315,000 over that time.
|
|
By:
No idea how you work it out but can you do 2% for roughly 15 years?
|
|
By:
I'll give it a go. It's 10 pence for every point, 150,000 points needed for 2%, weekly decay 15% or 22,500 points, which is £2,250 commission paid or generated every week, at 2% multiply by 50 to get total won/lost = £112,500 per week X 50 = £5,625,000, X 15 = £84,375,000!
|
|
By:
Correct Nick. If you lay a horse @ 10/1 for 100 then you are staking 100 which is your liability.
|
|
By:
Cheers, that is possibly a minimum figure as you can obviously go over the minimum number of points for 2 percent. Interesting, ta.

Greyhounds wasn`t my thing but I remember most Derby winners, especially Slippy Blue, he was a great specimen. There is not a great deal on internet about him though. Thanks for the link. Were you always confident he would win during the race?

By:
Same as Slip started the Dog Trip aged 14 , I have always loved NH racing for as long as i can remember , Lord knows where I would have ended up without those interests , Probably Rich tbh
