Say you have $1904.37 in your account and you want to bet on something you would usually stake $100

I always put $104.37 on just to make things look nice and rounded

My account total always says "loading" anyway so I have no idea what it is most of the time.

No though, got no interest in even numbers on the rare occasions it works, I often have -£3.09 losses or something where I take my stake back, just because I can't be arsed to do the sums accurately. (Which is one of the reasons I have no interest in strike rates also)

*No idea what it is beyond a couple of SF that is.

Used to have a thing about that but stopped after one horrendous saturday afternoon when I spent about 2 hours and risked ever-increasing amounts trying to win about £3.65 to even up the bank.

Never again!!

I always like to have a 4 in my balance. If there's no 4 I withdraw some so there is.

I also remember someone I knew was winning something like £990 one day and he decides to back a long odds on shot to take it up to the nice round figure of 1k.... and you can guess what happened. (I cant remember the exact circumstances but he was an in running player and he might have been backing at 1.01). Think it took him a while to get over that one.
