I’ve been in the driving seat for the majority of the month and the past week or so has been no different. I opened up a €13+ lead over Enda and he somehow managed to get it back to under €5.
So i was forced in to betting again as i wasn’t comfortable with that lead. To cut a long story short, i ended up reducing my lead to just a couple of euro late last night.
In a bid to recover, i lost more today on womens football. At one stage my balance stood at €43.96. Today was an awful day for betting in that choice was really limited. There wasn’t much football on and all the decent tennis matches will run in to the early hours, so i couldn’t bet on them..
I picked out newcastle at 1.9 as a value bet against leicester. Stuck €13.96 on them meaning if they failed to win, my balance would go down to just €30 for the month.
At half time it was 0-0 and not looking good but i kept the faith and was rewarded. Newcastle won the match 1-0 and i didn’t lay off any money, so i profited by €12.56.
That took my balance to over €56 and just now i’m after taking my balance to €57.58 by betting on the closing stages of a tennis match.
So that’s me done for August. I’m not sure how Enda has done, but i’m very happy with my overall tally. I have the champagne on ice here as i await Enda’s total balance….


It’s lookin good for me for this month then so!
nooooooo!
I’m afraid so! You have 28 minutes to get busy and I’m not finished yet.. hold the champers

I’ve been playing poker since 8pm!
Sean, I’m declaring you the winner if you’ve beaten around €50. I haven’t been able to make a move today
Sorry, had to try and make you make some rash bets at the very end
Mean trick I know but I was expecting you to have an ace up your sleeve and you’re the one that mentioned mind games
Sorry again man! it made it fun though
it’s down to the wire! what’s your balance? mine is €50.58!!!
