Gambling Confessions

As already mentioned never ever gamble in a period of work, and only sparsely when I'm not.

However the last 5 days I've fell off the cart big style..........


Stoke v Valencia £1000 win Valencia 7/4
£1000 under 2.5 goals 1/1........Profit from the 2 bets = £2750

Barcelona v Valencia £2000 Barcelona half time/full time 4/5........Profit = £1800

Real Zaragoza v Real Betis £1000 Real Betis half time/full time 4/1........Profit = £4000

Total Profit = £8550

Got to keep going until one loses now so will post my next one before the event.

I think fair play to you if you've got the bollocks to bet that big on football matches, the problem you've got is hardly anyone believes a word you write after all your 'chief' stories, well done if you have won all that.

I also enjoy the odd gamble. Only yesterday i won over 14 million on football bets, 6 million on snooker and 50p on DOND.

I suppose when you pay your security team more money than a brain surgeon earns in a year you can afford this kind of flutter.

This is bullshit.

A 2 grand bet on Barcelona at 4/5 would make you £1600, not £1800. I'd forgive the mistake, except your total profit is also wrong as a result of your miscalculation, it should be £8350. Anyone who has ever had a sizeable bet on a sporting event will know exactly how much they made from the outcome.


You sir, are a liar. End of.


Stop boring us all with these bullshit stories.

This thread has absolutely no merit whatsoever, and should be deleted.

Isn't gambling "boast" a more apt title than "confession". Although some might think "Bullshit" more appropriate ;-)

If it's the same shop, they will restrict your bets.They hate winners. Slaphead Betfred will be paying out Barney Curley soon, after he welshed on his bets. My mate is allowed £1.17 on a premier league game after taking out £12k over a lucky month.
