Bishbosh, going back to your betting on ManU every game thing-
I worked on a site with a chap a while back who was West Ham mad. He went to 90% of games. He used to stake £5 on a draw and £5 on a defeat every match. (This was when they were in the prem so 38 games)
This meant he staked £380 a season, nearly always ended in profit and didnt mind losing a £10 as his team had won.
Obviously this would be very profitable or very bad depending if you follow a good or shit team.
Best done on Mediocre sides probably.
As for Roulette, I have no system, except on William Hill Machines I think its always an odd number of the same colour at a time usually- I.e. 1, 3,5,7,9 blacks in a row. My thinking being if I go on the machine and theres been 2 blacks I think it'll be black again

1: no betting on the previous 3 results would not improve the odds its still 37/1
2: Try it with a £1 on Utd, same difference and i bet you wouldnt be up, bookies odds always make sure they have an edge.
You would have lost 7/25 times on Utd this season. So thats £700 down and because Utd tend to be fairly big odds on, especially at home, you wouldnt have made back that £700 in the 18 winning bets. For instance they were 1/7 on when they played Blackburn at home. So your £100 would have returned a profit of £14. You can already see how hard it would be to make back that £700. And even if the resuts played out and they had a great season and you were up, it would be a negligible amount. 9 months of betting to make what would most likely be no more than £50, not really worth it.
If it was that easy everyone would do it.

Jonnyj - Piss on my parade.
If I'm down it's money spent on fun. How much money have you pissed into a car?

Doing it for fun is fine, the delusion of having a 'system' is a problem.

Loads of people have systems but at the end of the day it's a gamble.... Money spent on a thrill or possible win. As long as I can handle the loss I enjoy it.
I suppose a lot of people on here have spent £10k on a £2k car that is still only worth a small fraction. It's for the fun.
Anyway, just used £52 to win 102. Ie 5 wins, Used sky 689. I bet very 4-5 spins. Stopped and will do one a day from now on.

Sure I've used channel 866 before, do not use their codes for money off or Shit like that. You'll end up wasting your own money trying to collect theirs, you have to play 30 times the amount of the bonus and crap like that.

I never play roulette online
Sometimes have a go in the bookies
Have a fairly decent success rate.
Sometimes just gotta do shit or bust.
£100 in the machine, choose your section, pump it, or depending what mood your in, put the whole £100 on one of the 3rd's and if you win cash out.

9numbers so if I win on one I get 36 back and can play 3 spins with my winnings.
Once I'm up a good bit I will bet 10 on each and occasionally neighbours to 0
If I'm lucky enough and drunk enough I have on occasion put 50 on each, but not very ofton.
Same as me big man Never let me down so far! I play on Willy Hill, and always make sure I've got a minimum of £20 in it. I don't go chasing losses as that's a bad road to go down.
