Goodbye

The incentive for blogging has gone since my contest finished I just can't find the time or really be bothered any more. So good luck to all you punters out there and try and take plenty from those bookies before they shut you down.

The Champagne is on me

I've finally proved my husband and that awful Isiris man wrong. He talks a good game but at the end of it all I have more profit than they do. So we're off to Greece for 2 weeks and I look forward to my 5 grand which was his side of the bargain. Final total is with fees for year off but not deducting phone calls and a lot of headaches listening to the drivel that is spouted by that awful man. Looking at my husbands mobile bills thats about another £400 off his total. They tell me he has 100 grand challenge up for anyone who can beat him over a set number of tips. If i had 100 grand to put up for my side i'd give it a go. These are the real figures not pie in the sky best price with humpty bookies like Betfred £25 win only no e/w if anything at all. They tell me Booth is retiring at end of year about time too maybe he'll get kidnapped by terrorists again before then

I was tempted to back Zenit against Rangers tonight but a draw could be the call or under 2.5 goals but thats not appealing at 4/7.

Well nearly a 6 hour delay on way home spoiled the end of a very relaxing week. Wonder what it was like for the people next door listening to my 3 playing in pool. Not quiet i think. Not happy last week after we backed Celtic to draw with Rangers pub even had internet so a simple trade was in order but listened to so called experts round about "no more goals in this" with 15 minutes to go. What do men know. It was just about worth paying £100 to see the big hun from Livingstons face when winner was scored and his wife marched him out the door before he burst a blood vessel. Had a bet on Rangers to draw last night. Should've backed no goalscorer as well. It's good to get paid doing the ironing.

That's me told. Not

My husband assures me kevin is as good as he says on his messages.The reason profits are not as much as he would have you believe is all down to weight of money and bookies not letting punters on. I had a look at his results compared to other tipsters at level stakes and this " living legend " is way behind some of the others. I always believed profitability should be measured at level stakes not staking plans or am i just a silly woman who doesn't know any better? Anyone got any views on this? Let me know

No April fools here i hope

Lets try and continue in the same vein as yesterday. That horrid man is not my lovely husband but the voice he listens to on his tipping line who would have all his members being millionaires following his advice. Ok he's profitable but he's not as good as he thinks.

Lucayos ran well enough before fading into 4th late non runner meant only 7 runners so don't feel as bad about 4th place. How come bookies take rule 4 off place money and still reduce number of places to suit final number of runners. We get penalised twice when this happens have asked a couple of managers who shrugged shoulders and said thats the way its always been.

What can i say about Celtic twice took the lead and poor defending rather than good play by Barcelona gifted them the game. Barcelona deserved to win the game by far the better team we all know that but defensive errors rather than great play is my bugbear.

He made a bet with me last night that come the summer holidays if i am still in front he will give me £5k to put bets on for him half the profit to me other half for holidays in the future. I asked what my side of bet is. Talk about that later was reply. Don't know what he has in mind will never find out if i can keep this up...

An easy winner

First time visor worked on Xpres Maite who had not won for 1 1/2 years. Won by 3 lengths had £100 e/w was out at time of race so no trade in running profit £1250. Wigan couldn't get equaliser (hubby likes to back the Desmond on live games reckons it keeps interest going) so £100 down on that.

At least Waterloo Corner wasn't 2nd it was 3rd beaten hd & sh. In running on betfair is great for making a profit on bets which ultimately lose. I turned a £50 @ 11/2 loser into £45 by trading £100 @ 1.5 if we had won it still equates to 5/1
