Gambling

[Mochachino]

Anyone into gambling wether its online or at the bookies, mates at work are getting hooked on it, but quite successfully atm, gets about £150 a week from it, he bets on football mainly and a bit of horse racing.

But other mate at work lost £90 tonight think it was on a Barnsly game if it was on tonight?

What websites are there and what do you use? Do you make money on it?

not all on the same bet, but all on loads of little ones, thats what i understood when he was talking about it. does it not makes sense? i aint got a clue about gambling. lol

facking hell mate! thats loads, did you get adicted?

Adicted isn't the world!... i wa obsessed with roulette! i'd stop going uni and go to the bookies every morn and lose from £100 - £200!...

take my world.. gambling only LENDS you money.. your always going to go back and lose what you won! .. it's a habbit you don't want to be in! I haven't played it for over a year now and i really had to push myself to not play the roulette!... DO NOT DO IT! TRUST ME!

ahh ok sound advice, i think we should change the subject befor you want to start gambling again!

This makes perfect sense. Betting £90 to win £150 just means that he's bettin on a BIG BIG favourite! .. he's guaranteed a win for sure because the return is pretty low in relation to the stake... however if he loses.. then thata £90 gone! just like that!

[GroomGTI]

to be honest mate you maximum bet is £100 and to put £90 on just to win £150 which your winning like £60 for a £90 stake is pretty shocking.

[Jagztorious]

never mate.. never... Yea i won £500 - £800 in one day.. but i'd go back the next day and put all that money back in and lose it!..

Bookies are a business... and business AIM to make money! not to give out money!..

trust me bro.. i wouldn't get hooked on it. EXPESIVE HOBBY :hug:

mugs game tbh, you win some and more often then not you lose

[Lee_P]

i dont like losing money so dont gamble i dont even go on the gamblers very often but when i do and win its an amazing feeling

[Tupps]

A few quid on footy accumulator's on a weekend and the occasional blast on poker (usually end up winning)

nothing hardcore, just something to keep the juices flowing

[DanA]

i work in a casino, and the casino always wins ;) if you win you always come back because you think you can win again some so but most lose :) i see it everyday people playing with there morgage ect. i do a little bit on roullette and other casinos won alot but then lost alot.

[Robb]

...gotta be in it to win it.

go casinos occasionally, never come out worse than £110 up.
bookies every major sporting event, or if i just so happen to be passing one.
lotto/scratchcards, only if theres no que at the kiosk etc.

[DanA]

won £1100 one night then went bk few weeks later lost £700 in 45mins.

[ryhornvtr]

Do the fruitys in a kebab count?

Ive never booked in a bookies, dont see the point as id lose more than i won.

[dsh85]

just walked past coral, thought id have a blast at the roulette, £3 in and took £5 home, big money profits!

you never know when your on top, youve always gotta have that extra go which mostly end up meaning you loose, i can see how easily it can be to get hooked

me personally i dont mind a bet on the football just to make it a bit more intresting, only something daft like a couple of quid!
i try and do an accumalator each week which i put a tenner on but thts it
