A quick round-up for you. Quick, because I’m off on holiday for a week this evening, and I’ve packing to do. I say packing. It will very much be “man” packing – you know, a couple of pairs of Boxers, a couple of pairs of jeans and hoodies, and a silent prayer that there’s a washing machine where you’re going.
So whilst I remember, a note there’ll be no posts next week.
In the meantime, a little bit of profit so far this week that brings the month (almost) back to break even.
The standout bet was a bet using the Bookie Bashing Early Pay Out Tracker with 8 teams placed into 28 trebles. Five winning teams meant a decent, if not spectacular profit (two winners were at odds on) but I’ll definitely take it.
Same old pattern for The Value Machine – ie. back to (almost) level. The question now is do we fall back into another drawdown, or kick on into some decent profit.
eSoccer Edge rolling along quite nicely, and nearly on a profit high now, after the sharp drawdown last month. And as for WinnerOdds Football – that is now on a new profit high for both the month and year to date. Happy days.
One note is that some things are going to have to change when I get back. Without going into boring detail, I’ve been only able to work in my new business at less than half pace up to this point, due to certain Terms in the contract of employment I had with my previous employers that are enforceable for six months after my leaving. Those 6 months are up on the 19th, and from that point, I’m going to be running at 100% pace. The knock on effect is that something will have to give with the betting. Not too much, but I do need to figure out a few things. This Bet Diary is nothing if not a true reflection of real life and how betting can fit into it, eh?. I’m long past the small kids stage of life, but as we know, things happen.
OK, so I’m off for some bracing sea air, a log fire, and some/lots of red wine. And, I hope, a washing machine.
Catch you later.
