Just on football betting I've actually altered how I bet on it because I was just getting too frustrated with it. I only bet on football now with either left over winnings (say I have £105 in my account I bank £100 and use the £5 on football), or I use free bets.
I actually find it makes it less frustrating when you get these narrow losses and the wins are more welcome as I haven't actually deposited money to place the bets, so it's kind of a free stab at it anyway.
Only deposit money specifically to bet on racing and golf now.

Only deposit money specifically to bet on racing and golf now. I've altered mine completely to the point I don't bother anymore fed up of losing so fuck it. Well that's kinda my thinking as well. It's not a sport worth getting too involved with betting wise. Unless you're fucking minted and can stick daft money on win singles.
I think it's a bigger problem than most sports because of the sheer volume of markets and matches you can bet on now. There's so much football on day after day.
I suppose horse racing is the same but I've actually stopped betting on the shit midweek racing at the minute and just bet at the weekend or at big meetings. So it doesn't bother me like football does.
Golf is my favourite sport to bet on. Loads of value, huge prices and there's only a few tournaments a week, lasting 4 days which means you get a good run out of your money as well.

Not posted anything in a while but I had to share this one. Don't know whether I'm more pissed off with the fact it lost or the fact I was a greedy cunt and added a 1/7 shot to an acca just so the winnings would be over £100.
Oh and Messi missed a penalty with about 5 minutes to go.

Can't believe Cheltenham is just 2 1/2 weeks away. Haven't watched a whole lot of horse racing recently. Literally just been the ITV Saturday races and that's about it. So will be going into this blind compared to past years.
Probably a good thing to be honest!

Some decent offers around for Cheltenham already.
Skybet offering your money back as cash (upto £20) if you back the loser of the first race everyday. So essentially a £20 free stab at the first race everyday.
Ladbrokes giving a £1 freebet everyday of the meeting. Hardly a fortune but if you can find a winning double/treble/multi or a decent priced winner with it, it's not bad.
Then Paddy are giving money back as a freebet (upto £10) if your horse finishing 2nd, 3rd or 4th in every race on the first day of the meeting.

I had a decent winner on the golf yesterday which will pay for the first couple of days at least. Also a couple of really good offers to be had from different places which means you can limit the losses.
Think I'm going to have more fun with this Cheltenham than recent years, not going to spend too much time studying form, just go with my gut.

Also, as if the excitement of Cheltenham isn't enough, one of my favourite golf tournaments on the calendar is also on this week with The Players Championship. Got a few bets on this with Paddypower and Betfair paying a crazy 10 places each way:
Rahm 25/1 Garcia 30/1 Si-woo Kim 66/1 Howell III 80/1 Smith 80/1 Aphibarnrat 125/1

1:30 - Angel's Breath, Vison D'Honneur, Fakir D'Oudairies, Brandon Castle 2:10 - Hardline, Duc Des Genievres, Glen Forsa, 2:50 - Mister Whitaker, Coo Star Sivola, Singlefarmpayment, 3:30 - Buveur D'Air, 4:10 - Stormy Ireland, Roksana, Jester Jet, 4:50 - Good Man Pat, A Plus Tard, Red Indian, Riders Onthe Storm 5:30 - Jerrysback, Discorama, Ballyward

Was only going to go for Angel's Breath and Fakir D'oudairies in the first race until I saw willhill were paying 7 places each way so added a couple of outsiders.

It's 5 places on bet365 and 4 on ladbrokes so hopefully should be ok.
