25-10-2010 3:02am#1Decided to start logging my football bets here so I can stop making stupid bets and focus on making a good profit. At the moment I'd say I'm semi successful, probably down altogether but not a whole lot.
My main focus will be on Premiership and Championship games, however I'll be nibbling at LOI, La Liga, Bundesliga and a few of the South American leagues. I've just won my last bet which puts my account up to €63.89 - hoping that I don't have to deposit anymore.
Hopefully I can give and receive advice here and we can all make lots of money

I had a treble on from before my log started but I'm going to count it as part of my bankroll anyway, it was Cardiff, Utd and Rangers all to win, €5 returned €71.
It's considered good manners around here to include a screen shot. I know you have it logged in the Football Betting forum, but just for future reference
Good work, nice profit so far. I just cant bet on domestic football these days, in any league that is. Any luck I get seems to only come from European clashes.0 -

It's funny, it was the rolleyes that set me off. They piss the unholy hell out of me, if you misused them I apologise, I take your point before them wholeheartedly, to some degree I was chasing, to another degree I had confidence and tried to maximise profit. But you cannot compare a bank of 60 euro to a bank of a few hundred. Also the fact I have money behind helps, it may seem irrelevant but it means I can afford to take risks like this one tonight and not be overly upset about it.
I think you know your stuff about gambling so don't want to be arguing over difference of opinion, I'm intelligent and hopefully my results in gambling will help to prove that 0 -
unhelpful??,mate that was good advice,any1 will tell ya that...I give you your snide unhelpful sarcasm back and you retaliate? Maybe if you approached the thread like you seem to be unable to do, i.e. a bit of diplomacy I would have said fair enoughbut you came on like a prick who knows it all.
well if i did, i didnt mean too.i dont feel i did though..

Group hug.
Dave147 I hope you start a new log. I liked your starting double Cardiff and Milan. You said you want this to make you gamble better and stop making stupid bets etc. Might I suggest setting a bank, and a couple of set rules for yourself, and use this forum to keep a running log for a month or two and see where you're at?
You seem to like multiples. So how about you pick out only football doubles and bet only 1 or 2 points. Say €5 on each double, €10 if you see real value. You can keep your other bets out of the log and still follow other things. But I reckon if you're good at one particular bet (I'm only suggesting multiples, you might prefer a different bet) then it's best to start there. Give it a few weeks then re-evaluate, maybe change your point structure or add another bet, but it should give you a good starting point for the log to give you more control of your bank....it will stop you chasing with the 2pt cap, and also eliminate all this "I lost €20 on this other game/horse not posted here which affects my log"
Just a suggestion, mainly because I'd like to see what you can do over a couple of weeks. I'm no expert, but there's a lot of good logs here which owe a lot to keeping a rigid system of points betting. I'm more of a lurker than a poster here but it's an excellent community. Coughlan has taken as much stick as anyone but really everyone is looking for people to make money off the bookies, not to knock them.0 -
Dave147 I hope you start a new log.
Noooooo. :pac:
Just top up the balance in this thread, anyone starting multiple logs (due to losing their starting bank) will have their new thread moved into the old one, no need clogging up the forum and such.
Best of luck with the thread Dave, gamble how you want to gamble, you've to make mistakes to learn from them and spend money to make money.
I absolutely hate all the ":rolleyes:" that people give, does my head in too and comes across as complete and utter arrogance but I think Coughlan just doesn't use it in the right place! Coughlans rolleyes is another mans smiley face. :pac:
All the best dude, with less tilting and more composure you'll do well I'm sure. 0 -

Yeah I'll be starting a new log on this thread, with a fixed bank of my own money and take it from there. I'll try and avoid tilting, unfortunately the bank I started with I was after winning so I kinda felt like I was freerolling after I had already withdrawn my original deposit.
I will be doing golf bets in the next log aswell as I've had 4 winners in the last 3 months, including a special Martin Kaymer at 55-1 and 16-1
Thanks for the advice lads, next step: Bankrupt Paddy Power 0 -
