    ***warning!!! small stakes ahead*** :)

    Hi guys, been reading around and been inspired to start my own log, purely for selfish reasons to be honest... After years of sharing an account with some family members decided to open my own up...

    Threw twenty at it to begin with (I'm a very poor student and betting mainly to add interest to events)...

    The log begins::


    ~ 26/08/2011: England , Liverpool , Man City , Newcastle , Everton , Aston Villa 10c 4folds
    Stake €1.50, Return of €13.66 (Villa letting me down)

    ~ Le Havre , Shelbourne , Esbjerg , Ajax , VfB Stuttgart , Barcelona 20c 4folds
    Stake €3, Return 0.00 (Le Havre, Dodgy Shels and Stuttgart falling)

    ~ A Roddick v J Isner - A Roddick @ 6/4
    Stake €1, Return 0.00

    ~ Hellas Verona v Pescara - Hellas Verona @ 15/8
    Stake €2, Return 0.00 (clearly tennis isn't my niche)

    ~ Barcelona v Porto - Barcelona to Score the First Goal after minute 23 @ 6/4
    Stake €1.50, Return €3.75

    ~ Enhanced Soccer Special - Iniesta to score and Barcelona to win @ 4/1
    Stake €0.50, Return 0.00 (was drawn in by the special as usual)

    ~ 27/08/2011: Enhanced Football Double - Aston Villa and Wigan to win @ 4/1
    Stake €1.59, Return 0.00 (As above, stake was rounding by balance down...)

    ~ Man Utd , Bayern Munich , Valencia , Celtic , Barcelona , Chelsea
    Stake €2.00 accy, Return €14.66

    ~ Lyon , Sligo Rovers , Bohemians , Liverpool , Everton , Chelsea , Bayern Munich
    Stake €1.00 accy, Return 0.00 (Sligo draw to Monaghan :( )

    ~Spanish Enhanced Double - Valencia and Real Betis both to win @ 3/1
    Stake €2.50, Return €10

    ~Liverpool v Bolton - L Suarez to score in 90 minutes and Liverpool to win the match @ 6/5
    Stake €2.50 Return 0.00

    ~28/08/2011 Lille v Marseille - Marseille @ 9/1
    Stake €1 Return 0.00 (Saw lille 1-0 at HT and thought this looked good value... Marseille were 1-2 up very shortly but went on to throw it away 3-2 )

    ~29/08/2011 Romania , Croatia , Armenia , Holland , Turkey , Lithuania , Russia , England U21 , England , Southampton
    Stake €2.32 - Ongoing - (silly Football Banker bet to sound the balance down, Potential returns of €17.48, 99% sure she'll go down, don't know what possessed me.)

    ~30/08/2011 US Open Power Hour - Rafael Nadal to win the US Open 2011 @ 5/1
    Stake €1 -Ongoing- (to continue my prolific tennis streak :/



    That's all so far, will update as much as possible... Starting stake €20, Current balance €39 with €3.32 in play.

    Should really learn my lesson about the stakes I put on... Stupidly was rounding my balance down for my stake on my one winning bet, instead of doing the usual ~€2.50-€5~


    New Balance €80.87 with the 4folds in running and a small bet on nadal
