Went into the Casino the other day at 1 in the afternoon. Put £30 on Red and won, then put the £60 back on red and won again. Walked out with £120, then spent it all shopping.

Good man, knowing when walk is the best thing, especially with a profit.
I had to pay the Toni money back, they waived £20 and gave me a free bet, so I paid just under £100.
With the £5 free bet, I have manged to get it up to £70 with various bets, its fun looking back to see it was just a free bet and not I can withdraw the cash whenever I want.

Ahh gutting that you had to give that Toni money back in the end. Well played on getting a fiver up to £70 though.
Yeah I know, me and a mate both had £30 left in our banks and that's litterally all we had, and were shopping in Brighton at the time and couldn't really afford anything, so just though f*ck it lets put it all on red. He wanted to walk with his £60 but I convinced him to put it on again, and it came in. Bit of a shame that I went and spent the lot straight after though, but was still a good buzz doing it at that time of the afternoon and it comming in!
Bit hard to bet on football lately, everyone's been beating each other, and I'm getting fed up with Leeds still letting me down every week on my Accy's.

Betting online or on a bookies screen does not compare to the rush of going a casino at all does is? Man, I feel like going now, but I promised myself I would only go once my last exam is over in may.
You said you have stopped doing accys, I have given them a miss for a while as well.
Somthing new I am doing is betting on teams who I think will win to score 1, 2 or 3+ goals.
For example, looking at the fixtures, I think Man Ciry are a dead cert to beat Birmingham.
The best odds for the Man City victory is 1.40
However, a way of getting better odds is to bet on the winning margin, where by city winning by one goal is 3.50, 2 goals is 4.33 and 3+ is 4.00.
Therefore, if City win by whatever scoreline, you will get at least 1.50 odds on your money, as opposed to the 1.40 being offered for a straight up victory, plus you have the chance to win more if they win by more than one goal.
I am surprised the bookies have not figured this out.

I had £1 on Black Apalachi to win, was absolutely gutted that it lost on the last fence.
Also had £1 each way on three others that didn't come in. Brighton skanked me out of a decent accumulator too, so overall a bad day at the office for me.
I wanted to do that Ladbrokes Slip where you bet on both teams to score, they had 10 games at 400/1 on that, didn't get there in time before kick off though.

Been popping into Ladbrokes quite a lot with my spare change this week. Keep putting £3/£4 in Roulette, getting it up to about £13, then cashing in, and putting the £3 back in, and doing the same thing, so been making about £20 every day.
Did loose £40 online the other day though, as SkyBet rigged me in to some £5 bonus for when you deposit a fiver, which was non existent, so I ended up just putting more money in and blowing the lot.

Damn, you should of at least stuck a fiver on that!
I am hoping to go to the casino soon, my uni is 15 mins away from one, but I am keeping off going again until the end of exams.
Will do a couple of accumalators on the last day of the season, will post my bets here in a couple of days.
