I bet on the football every weekend, i always do a Goals Galore coupon using Oddschecker to see which bookie offers the best odds. Always cover my bigger bets with singles and doubles. Seem to have been doing ok recently.

I used to put a coupon on every weekend for about a year. Found myself significantly out of pocket.

I have a mate who always boasts to me when he's won but doesn't utter a word when he loses. :lol:

I bet a bit on the football, usually just an accumulator on a weekend. Had a 7 team accumulator come in a month ago or so, £10 on and got around £950 back.

Probably bet more on the horses than football, tend to only bet on the bigger class 1 and 2 races now a days though.

Me and a mate do a 1.5 betting odds challenge, basically bet on an evens shot first with £10 then if that comes on take back out your stake and start betting on 1.5 shots and in 10-11 moves your around £1000 return. Takes some balls to put £500+ on a bet but you took your stake out so your not down on cash from where you started.

Cheltenhams coming up so I'll be quiet on the betting until then.

Have a punt on the lotto\Euromillions every week, couple of quid in the bandit every once in a while (increasingly rarely though cos its always been raped by the landlord) and a go on the National, thats about it.

Won £200 on the national last year thanks to a tip from someone off here, think it might have been J4Y. Bought that cheapo mondeo Estate with it, so whilst the rumour circling the pub was true "Hey did you hear about Ian, had a win on the Grand National and bought a new car" it wasn't quite as spectacular as they thought.

Speaking of which, anyone got any tips for the National, or should I go for Ballabriggs again?

Are these tips based on studying form, or because you know the match has been nobbled. If its the latter i'm in.

My mate does a bit of matched betting just requires a lot of time and patience to follow it up.

football is just me and a mate up over £200 in 3 weeks though thats at small stakes
golf/speedway usually comes from a odds complier whos a good friend
any specials ie ( predicting a darts match score or other ) is usually via good information.

don't always win but if you keep it sensible you can make abit of extra money on the side :D

Most weekends I go for an accumilator on the footy. This weekend just gone I had Arsenal, Swansea, Southampton, and Man United to win with Grant Holt to score in the Norwich game. Had £5 on it, would have bagged me a cool £1k if Holt had scored!

Covered the bet with a tenner on United to beat Tottenham so i'm not out of pocket, although I still feel I was robbed! :ymca:

On the whole, this season I'm about £850 up. Not too bad, missed out on some very big wins but that's part of the fun i guess!
