ok I'm doing a mad quest for a laugh; gonna go into a bookies every day and stick £10 on number 9 which if it lands is £360 - leaving the bookies after the one spin whether it wins or not...

Wonder how long it will take to come up :P

(To compensate for this 10 loss, no crap bfms are getting played for a board whilst the quest is in play :P)

I do this once a day with £2, have hit it about 10 times. Everytime i do hit i put £12 on for the double.

Hit the double a couple of days ago for a cool £478 profit :shock:

Nice one mate, so how much were you 'up' after all? I think these one-off bets are often quite fruitful, so long as they don't creep up too much. ;)

On a different note, I was very tempted to go for all the FA cup games being draws on Saturday (Chelsea would've let me down anyway, but heard rumours it was about 400-1!) Previous to the games being played, I thought 'No chance!' ;)

i think they are rigged mate but i never used too.

do you think 500s in bookies are percentage or random just out of interest ..
