On my way home tonight, dropping my mate off after work, going through a few side roads in Crumlin, come to a group of teenage lads, see in the middle of them there's 2 lads, boxing gloves and all, bashing each other.

.... the ole gambling can be no joke though, most of us lose the head from time to time, some folk lose the head most of the time. I've seen lads get in serious financial difficulty due to it, at least one I reckon committed suicide due to gambling (difficult to be sure of that one) and I've seen one or two folk have gambling compound other problems/issues they had.

My uncle got into a bit of bother a while back, into thousands of debt, my aunt separated from him, try to do the job on himself (thankfully was found quickly) he was in a mental hosptial for a while and he's on the mend but it's taken a good few years off his life I'd say.

Never nice to hear stories like that especially when it's someone close to ya, good to hear he's on the mend though, only thing is with depression it's so unpredictable, takes a very long time to recover fully.

eh i dunno

Shouldnt even be posting in here these days. Haven't had a bet this year :pac: Waiting for my cashcard to arrive so will get back into then but 20 quid a week is my lot cus i haven't a clue. I can see how people get addicted though and its pretty depressing

Leeg17

Was told this week that apparently a classmates (from secondary) dad who killed himself was riddled with gambling debts..

All you can hope is that you know when your limits and stop when you need to.

Absolutely great to see Trump knocked out of the German masters. Liked him at the start but he's got so arrogant lately i hate to see him win now.

Has he?

I've completely lost touch with snooker I'd say the last time I watched it was when Trump broke onto the scene at the World Championships (I think). Ragin I don't get to watch it as much any more.

Yeah, complaining about players being too slow when he loses, and saying he'd beat them anyday and crap like that.
Maguire was 3-1 down and 4-2 and won 5-4:D

His twitter heading used to be 'aspiring young snooker player'. Now its 'part time snooker player,full time international playboi!
welcome to the good life'!!!

Ye sounds like bit of a dick now so. Shame, it was nice to see a young confident long potter come out and play his own game against people he'd be expected to be hammered against.

Fair play. Personal record?

Yep, never did 9 x 100s on the trot before, was meaning to do 6 but kept going, no one spotting me either.

ft9

Never meant to do 9 €100 bets on the trot before, only for I got out on the last one it could of been 10

UrbanSea

Oh 9 you so funny

ft9

That was hilarious last night to me.

Amazing what drink does.

UrbanSea

Did you paint the town red

I was locked, but actually able to function, it was brilliant, usually I'd be messy as fcuk.

Sizing or Zeb today Urban?

I reckon Sizing Europe myself.

Oliver Brady was on ATR this morning, very honest re Imperial Shabra, said he saw feck all entries coming in, so he's sending the horse down to collect €4000 to pay his yard staff for a couple of weeks.

UrbanSea

He's dead right, I like him.

I'm not touching the race to be honest. I'm debating whether or not to back United. Have lumped on Scotsirish too

I have 50 on utd.

20 treble Newcastle, Ireland -5, Sizing Europe.

Great for a hangover when Sunday bets come in.

UrbanSea

The mother just made me a mountain of sandwiches

Kempton off, that's a few quid saved :pac:

ScotsIrish and Utd DNB for me today I think, presumably I'll have to do singles as a DNB mightn't be the sort of bet they put in a double ????
FEck that actually, just saw ScotdIrish's price.

Big Zeb v Sizing Europe is a coin toss, with a clear round I'd lean towards Big Zeb, not going to have any bet on it though.

UrbanSea

They will let you put that in a double James.


that 8/11 last night on Scotsirish looks a gift. Pity I'd no bean in my PP account

Cheers
Will do it so :pac:

UrbanSea

I just backed United too, thanks to ft9 :cool:
