Downturn.

Very short of time tonight, so just a quick update.

Weekend's Betting


Every now and then, you hit a Saturday when everything goes right. Of course, the counter to this is that every now and then, you hit a Saturday when everything goes wrong. And this Saturday was one of those nasty ones, wiping off 40% of the total profits accrued in the month to date.

It started nicely, with Chasemaster finding a winner (Pepite Rose - Newbury - 15/8) but then it was all downhill from there. The only other "highlight" was the stakes being returned on one of Football Elite's DNB wagers.

Drawing complete blanks were 4PA (0/2), Northern Monkey (0/2), Winning Racing Tips (0/2), The Market Examiner (0/1),Skeeve (0/3 plus one other that returned stakes), and Football Elite (0/2 - including one with stakes returned as mentioned).

As for Sunday...a break even day with On The Nose finding a nice winner (Sharestan - The Curragh - 5/1), and Winning Racing Tips finding one that crossed the line first (Guess Again - Hexham - 3/1), but no joy for Northern Monkey (0/2), Chasemaster (0/1), The Market Examiner (0/2), Football Elite (0/1) or Strike Zone (homes) (0/1).

No joy today either for On The Nose (0/1), The Market Examiner (0/2), or Chasemaster (0/2).

Hi Rowan ,yesterday i have experienced what i call bookmaker restrictions without justification.on 2/11/2011 i have opened an acount with LadBrokes,beacuse i ve been years using hills and 365 but i though it may be useful for me.i made a deposit of 800 euros and i started placing bets average of 40 euros not often but evry week i used to place some bets on football ,horses etc...last week i have made a 200 deposit because this month was horrible for me,but that is part of the game....and stil i had no winning yesterday i have placed 5 e/w on dear maurice @25/1 still no winner.....in the evening i was going to place a bet on seville and i found that i was ristricted to "o"........incredible :( .after being disapointed i was thinking are these bookmakers getting ride of "loosers" players ? boqqqq!!!

  2. I think we can agree, Fabian, that there is a word that we can use that accurately describes what the majority of bookmakers are. It's not a polite word, but I shall use it anyway...

    Bastards!
