Okay back ready and refreshed from a nice spot of McDonald's. Current bank now stands at £2370 but hey that is just a number that I best get away from.
Before I headed out I did put two recommended lays up on the 'Anyone fancy a Lay' thread (which I didn't thankfully bet on) because one was okay while the other the damn horse won. Sorry lads whoever followed. Anyway - away we go .... |

Well that was a bit of a mis-fortune there with Man Utd second goal coming along at a time I would have greened up ..... winning a whopping £14 on Live Roulette was nice but not exactly helping to stem the tide of losing bets.
Oh well thats the way the cookie crumbles sometimes. Bank now stands at £2325 |

Summary of the challenge
03/04/2011 2500 04/04/2011 2575 05/04/2011 2600 06/04/2011 2861 07/04/2011 2962 08/04/2011 2750 09/04/2011 2885 10/04/2011 3062 11/04/2011 2726 12/04/2011 2325 It has been an exciting time - with some great bets, some not so great bets and a few hours drinking beer while a lovely lady spins the ball on roulette. The challenge goes on ....... us Aussies fight to the bitter end |

i like how you describe losing £400 as an exciting time. wish i could be like that

Well Paulol - I was smart enough to buy some shares (GEO now Emblaze) a number of years back and even smarter to sell them at a lets just say crazy price which has set me up quite nicely.
This challenge is meant to be just a bit of fun for me - yet all read is snide comments from people like you and Betwet - either asking me personal questions, laughing when a bet goes wrong and in Betwet case thinking I am making the roulette results up. I personally don't know why people go on to a thread and make not very nice comments - every challenge thread I check I always wish people well and leave it at that. All I can say is - is that life is all about 'timing' so while you get excited about your 48p profit on a football match and Betwet gets greedy and tries to win another £110 over the next few weeks (I am so excited) - all I can do is is sleep well knowing that I had the luck of some great 'timing' a few years back. |
|
By:
ok.....
can i firstly ask how much you made selling those shares? was it 5 or 6 figures? i dont believe i make any snide comments and my betfair forum ethos is i am here in peace and friendlyness until someone has a pop at me. i certainly have asked lots of questions but im a friendly guy and it is a forum. Betwet seems like a tool. getting excited for 48p was sarcasm if you didn't get that. please respond to my comments when you get chance my aussie friend. |

Although I think reaching 100k in a year may be beyond most, anything is possible if you have the right timing. Paulol, if you spent more time on research into form before placing bets and not keep asking irrelevant questions on these forums perhaps YOU would be able to reach a significant amount of profit on here? Have fun... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eHHT7dTmw8U |
