Still feels like I’m wading through treacle, uphill, against a strong current, into a headwind. There are many at Lindow Cricket Club who would say that sounds like my bowling, but I am, of course, referring to my betting.
With the season effectively done, I’ll soon be able to put a bit more into what I do at weekends again. Quite looking forward to it, to be honest. We seem to have adopted the brother-in-law’s dog (NOT my idea) so a morning and middle of the day bet placement, followed by a blustery walk and home to a hot chocolate and maybe, a little later, a good bottle of red….all sounds quite appealing.
What would add to the allure would be to start making some money again, instead of losing it. A blank week for Weekly Golf Value put paid to the chances of this weekend being a profitable one. More concerning is the form of The Value Exchange Exchange Profit. My personal drawdown with this has now reached the equivalent of two thirds of the bank. It happens, and as I’ve been at pains to make clear on a frequent basis, others following the service may be faring much better than I. The problem I’m facing though is that repeated deposits into my Exchange accounts mean that the thorny issues of affordability checks are now something to be mindful of. And quite frankly, I really can’t be arsed with all that!
Let’s hope for a reversal of fortune. And fast.
Not much else to report. Coming up to the busiest part of the week for WinnerOdds Tennis and after three successive loss making weeks, I could do with a change in the direction of the prevailing wind there, too. Were it not for the big David’s Daily winning patent last week, things would be very miserable indeed. Just note that I’ve tweaked my staking slightly and altered the banks accordingly for SharpBetting Football. I’m switching to a level staking approach on the singles (historically higher variance but higher level of profitability and ROI) from the Sharp Stakes method. And level stakes on all David’s Daily picks too.
Here’s to a better week.
