Ok folks, there's 3 weeks to go before Christmas.
Who's gonna be taking some shots this month?
No aftertiming allowed - post what you're gonna start with and then update here as you go. Most of us have at one point (or many points LOL) started with £10, £20, £50, £500 etc etc and spun it up into 100 or 1000 x that amount in a few days... how comes nobody seems to be doing this any more huh??? :D
I wanna hear superb degenerate stories or horrendous bankroll management turning into £00000s of profit, all because u had the nutsack to take the risk :D Obv most will lose their initial stakes trying but hey that's the game...
I have a feeling we might see a few people turn small money into a good few £k or so tbh :)
ROLL UP ROLL UP
WHO WILL BE THE SPINUP MASTER?
3 weeks, gogogogogo!

Well gone into grind mode at the moment. Any penny i can make for xmas is gona make it better. $1 45 mans on stars produce a decent hourly surprisingly 24 tabling them, lol.
greatest one EVER was actually in a pub.
Mates were off to tenerife last year in December and i went down the pub with them the night before for a few and there was some**ed contractors playing pool in there. I was gutted as i couldnt afford to go, even went to the pub with not a penny but mates bought me a few beers.
One guy took a fancy to my hat and wanted to play my hat vs his hat in a game of pool. Im a sick gambler so didnt care if i went home with a cold head i wanted his hat.
Anyway i beat him and he wasnt happy so put up a fiver against me to win it back.
Long story short, took £120 off him trying to win his hat back. Gave it to keys and he put £120 in his betfair acc when we got back home, spun that up to £500, 12 hours later im on the plane lol.

I'll give this a go why not. My best spin up was on this site to. Got $5 in cake one saturday after I stoped playing on here. I played a $4 sat to lunchmoney winning a seat played in it and shiped lunchmoney for around $550 I think it was. Then had £100 on kauto star at evens won that and that night managed to ship the old $5 rebuy for $800 quite a good day if you ask me.
haha quality stories
more of this please, I'm looking forward to seeing some spin ups in action :D

Paddy Power gave me a £10 free bet during the cheltenham gold cup festival 2 or 3 years ago cos they'd had some problems the day before and although I hadn't had a single bet on it I still got the £10 free bet.
Put it on Katchit at 11/2 I think and it won, put the £55 winnings on the next race, can't even remember who it was but it won so I had £160 and whacked it all on Kauto Star and he won.
so turned nothing into £360 :)
Not as good as everyone else I know, but I am a grinder

On probably the only friday night this summer where me and my mates didn't go right out on the lash, me and one of my best mates decided to get a few beers in and play a couple of online tournays.
First one we entered was a $10 1rebuy, 1 addon on**. 500-odd entrants. "What's the **g point" my mate says. I ignore him, crack a beer open and put some ch00nz on. This was about 4pm.
Anyway, 8pm rolls round and there's around 50 left and I don't remember exact details but we're doing well, above average stack. It must have been amusing watching us go from mutterings of "ship it" when winning a big pot, to a fist pump with a "get in", to jumping up, high fives and much fist pumping as it got more important.
About 20 left I think we have a good double up, from being just below average stack to being top 4 or 5. There's 3k for winning it, and top 4 all ship $900 or more. We're 19 year old students, lots of money imo.
We final table it, happy with the couple of hundred we've guarenteed, but as the 2-3 shortys bust themselves and we bust a decent stack, all of a sudden we're 4 handed and guarenteed $900. The other 3 tighten right up so we become a bit laggy and after knocking out the matey in 4th, we bust ourselves in 3rd for $1,200. :)
Needless to say, we did end up going out that night :^0 . Wetherspoons £29 bottles of Moet ftw. :D

Sorry to hear that chop, horrible to hear that anytime of the year let alone xmas :( Keep ya head up mate
the spins ups dont happen as much because we are all alot more disciplined players now hahahahaha
my best was on my first trip the wsop many years ago. went busto 5 days from end of trip and had to be staked into a 2/4hilo game at the orleans by a mate. managed to grind out $400 over the night so $200- enough for food and drinks the last few days of the trip orrrrrr why not play the $110 tourney starting at dinner time after no sleep. ship that for $3k off to spearmints-back down to 1k after that :( no worries $75 hilo comp starting following dinnertime and managed a few hours sleep at least before it. $1100 in that one. buy $ on stars with it from a mate for the jetlag when i get home and ship a $11 rebuy for 8k. need money quick so transfer to a mate and go to blackpool to pick up the cash. while there get persuaded to play the £100 rebuy (as a freezout as the money was all ahem spent already) and chop that with the same mate who bought the dollars and persuaded me to play it- £4500 i think and obviously karma for him. go home buzzing and play the 200hilo monthly comp on stars the day after and chop that for another 5k.
was a good weeks punting but think i lost it all in a couple of weeks on some very good "tips" lol. miss the spin up days i must admit- no balls nowadays :(
