Do you ever get nervous before big bets?

No but I would say your hands would shake uncontrolably having a bet of a fiver,probably why you don't bet.

Please stay off it Wildmanfromborneo, you contribute nothing, i would rather hear from gant as i know he's into dogs.

I suppose when you're having a proper cut at something if you prepare and are sure it's a bet then even if it does not win, you can rest assured in your own mind you did the right thing thus having no regrets afterwards.

You start the thread off with a lie,genuine question it's not a genuine question you are just trying to portray yourself as some kind of gambler and naturally failing,you have discovered through your new friend pony racing,so you stick this nonsense about a dog or a pony.
In fairness to you,you again came up with a classic today when you took offence at the word slug not realising that it is a slang word for drink from,that and your inevitable misspelling of rhyming slang for best plus your childish language makes you an object of derision.

You two need to get a room.

Wildman if i told you what i'm about to bet over the weekend, you'd have a heart attack, so leave it at that, you're nasty piece of work and small fry and not worth talking about, frankly you're a fool a basic one with a minus IQ to boot, i'd call you a pea brain but i merely be insulting peas. Only that i come on here to pass the day with my friends and swap tips i'd seriously think about leaving this forum, there would be other forums where i would not have to encounter an ape like you. I notice you're never on here in a Saturday morning this tells me you're a guy that goes down to the bookies and places his bets using the free bets coupons you find in the Saturday papers. I also noticed that you're never on here when there is racing on at certain tracks in the Kildare area, this tells me somebody brings you away for the day to get you out of the house, serious punters never leave their machines. That little green lights tells a lot about people.

not a room...they need  to get a life

Kavvie why are you having a go at me? I asked a genuine question if Wildman does not like me why bother coming in and trying to ruin a genuine question i asked?

I suppose Kavvie is right in a way too i spend way too much time on here. If Sligo Rovers win the league this year i will quit the forum at the end of it, that's official (I think).

Ozymandias and Kavvie ye are still following my every word.
I do two things you don`t Rocketfingers,i work and i go to the races,i back horses because i enjoy it you are a self styled serious punter who never leaves his machine,it`s no wonder your lonely and alone.

Going to races wow, how great are you? And i thought you'd have a sheltered life, must be a real treat to go to Thurles for a day out, i'll stick to Marbella and the golden mile, thanks though

It`s always a treat to go racing,you should try it.

i'll add a little story if i may ...i got this dog into one of the worst races ever run  in shelbourne , it qualified in a bad time , now this fellow could go a bit let me tell you , everything was in place , he was bombing up the golf course and seeing lots of live ones , on the sat  i'd given him a private trial and he'd flown out ...he was due to race on the weds , in those days they took evening bets on irish dogs at hx and shelbourne ..i did a full morning placing lots of small bets in as many shops as i could , was i nervous , quite simply yes...i put him in the box he'd drawn t2 which was ideal....traps went up , he missed it , then flew after them and made up huge ground to go into the bend in 3nd and a lt down , then he got knocked over ...i'll never forget that feeling as i went to collect him at the pick up...was i nervous ..no ...was i angry ..you bet...

You,re lucky you aren,t in Marbella now,rocketfingers,tis burning down.

workrider,tell us the one about the time you had your last few quid on mount benbulben in navan and after it got beat you sh@t in your pants and ended up in a home for six months,

Great story Workrider, that's gutting, did you try and recoup the losses and were you successful?

Pa just seeing that, mad.

i see u started this thread RF and as usual 6 minutes later ur stalker wildbore/dark rosaleen is first on it.................creepy

Stubby when you have absolute confidence in your own abilities there are no need for nerves.  You must be a trembling wreck most of he time

Sad NGU, you have failed gamblers like BWS a man who is meant to be a professional gambler who admits to copying Wildclown's punts when he's on a bad run

Gawd there is no comeback a person can make to that

Made a small profit with my bets, with about 8 minutes remaining i was on course for a v good night. Still better than a loss.
