Ah the countdowns on now, good old Boris. Just hope all these part timers nursing soft drinks don't flood the pubs and take up all the space

Don't think I will be needing one with my own great techniques going on

Oop I'd never heard of him either before but he's really good. And yes Paul HAS been in it too He's played good on and off really, he's been up there towards the top of the leaderboard many times

Oh yeah I forgot about Cheltenham too. Those events do look like a bit of fun though

you won't be buying a copy then I take it

Never even heard of Boris Koltsov Where's he sprung up from. No Paul Nicholson then? Shocker

I've only been once ages ago, bloody expensive with the booze and losing all my bets but was good fun. Been meaning to go to Cheltenham last couple of years with it being quite local but not got around to it yet, maybe next year if it's allowed to go ahead

You to charge more for the book than the profit people will make from your techniques?

Yeah a lot of these games have been unpredictable too. Before these games started the last one I made was like a £10 bet on MVG to win a match for just like a £1 profit and he lost So I didn't do any for ages but I've done better in these ones. Martin Adams/Scott Mitchell/Boris Koltsov are probably the highlights, I've been watching/keeping up with the results pretty much every day just for the bets tbh.

Ahhh so true Yep horse races look super fun but they are sooo hard to bet on. Have you been before then??

Indeed it was, might have to write my own book now

Ah I do like darts betting, normally have a few on the majors and the Premier League nights but they're always quite unpredictable. Nah I only saw a couple of those games at the beginning but they were quite pixelated and laggy which put me off it a bit, who's been doing well in them?

Got to a love going to an actual bookies, always the same identical group of old boys in there. Yeah horse racing is hard to call, had a win on the national about ten years ago and nothing since. I quite enjoy watching it though, would like to actually go to the races a bit more

AHHH not books about it Hopefully all that effort was worth that £5 that you earned

I go for darts mostly especially lately since that's the only thing I watch really. Have you been keeping up with the home games?? It's been pretty fun. Yeah I do it all online now but in my earlier days I did go to the bookies lol. It's been on since Tuesday, I've won a couple of free bets and lost a few as well, but not watched it just kept up with the results. These damn horses are too unpredictable

Yeah had to use my brothers card and details to sign up to it. Was so into it I'd also just spend ages watching other people play lol and started buying books on how to play better

Sounds like that's your new career sorted then what do you bet on most? You do it all online I guess? Ah no I've not seen any of Ascot. I normally bet on the big horse racing events but this one's passed me by a bit, was it the main race today?

NOT illegally Was that just because you were too young to be on any betting sites? Ahhhh Well at least you got a small profit instead of losing a load of £

Lmaoo he actually ain't too bad at that **** from what I've seen tbf. I definitely have done over the past few years & quite a bit more being at home now too. Since being home I'm def made some sort of profit out of it (not sure how much as I didn't keep track exactly, not MUCH but something) but before I was wasting/losing a bunch of money on it Are you not betting on Royal Ascot lately?

Yeah there was a group of us at school used to play loads when we were 16/17 so I was pretty obsessed with it then, spent hours playing online poker illegally haven't played much the last few years now though, I just played video poker in that casino because everything else was too expensive lol. One of my friends lost £200 in about ten minutes on the actual poker table while I grafted away on my video version for ages for a fiver

fair enough, you're better off following Michael's Beat the Bookies threads tbf. Do you gamble much?
