Desperate Dan....GH Complete

[Spooner]

Ok, Me and my girlfriend have £60 left to get us through to next friday (20th June? payday)

We need to buy a weekly bus pass each so we need 4 weekly bus passes altogether (£52) and we both smoke so there is not a chance we have the money to survive.

She had kindly agreed to give me £40 in the hope I can make enough money to get us through the month. (She must be crazy)

Basically were f*cked and im trying to get us out of jail. So this could be a emotional GH.

1st Bet - £15 France to beat Romania @ 4/5 - To win £27

2nd Bet - £8 Holland to beat Italy @ 23/10 - To win £26.40

Staked £22
Bank stands at £18

Dude this is a really bad idea.

NEVER EVER bet with money you can't afford to loose. Period.

Sort out your economics first and when you have some spare money, then come back.

What and be f*cked anyway?

Live a little.

You and everyone else probably thinks it is a stupid idea. I hear about don't spend what you can't afford all the time.

Im young and probably stupid, But one thing I do have is belief.

I believe in my picking, I believe I can make money and one day I will be that person.

Im not a cocky/arrogant person, I just have a lot of faith in myself.

Thanks for the good luck message whether you meant it or not.

Good luck with your selections and I hope you don't lose the £40.....

[KONG]

I wish you good luck aswell.

About the Holland - Italy game, I have my money on a draw.

[SeanMac]

Hope you can do it mate good luck

[aliando]

hooloovoo has summed it up nicely, i think, but if you know the risks and you're going ahead anyway then I hope its a happy ending

[Spooner]

Aldric - No, I dont earn alot of money but have been spending a bit to much this month, Im in profit from gambling. But thanks for your concern.

I will end this GH, Played around with the dogs earlier and got upto £31 so with the Holland bet thats £39 only a quid lost so far....(SS of money if asked)

...As I said though, I will end this GH as don't like the negative comments.

Here's hoping for the dutch tonight anyway.

Cheers.

[Guy Fawkes]

Don't think there's any negative comments mate, just people trying to help you out, as we've all been there. With money, nothings ever as it seems.

[Spooner]

GF, Maybe I take things to heart a bit to much, I just thought this forum was about punting...I didn't start the thread for advice etc or what I should do with my money.

Dutch going well.

[aliando]

its more that we dont want to see you worse off mate

[Spooner]

Thanks

Sorry if ive come across a bit of a cnut.

you'll have to try harder than that!


glad to see your winning

[Mr Accumulator]

Great work on the Holland game mate , petty France were pish .

Im not gona give you advice , and nor should any1 else . What you do with your money is your call , and people saying dont bet with money you cant afford to lose dont know your situation and havent havent lived on the edge before , or maybe they have and didnt like it!! Obviously people who have never been on the bread line . You know you need cigs and buspasses so your risking a lot of long walks and no cigs in oder to win enough to have many smokes and many lifts , that takes balls coz no cigs and long walks makes Spooner an angry chappie !!! lol ..... utmost respect mate

Been there and done it mate , sometimes it works and sometimes it doesnt , when it doesnt you feel shit , but when you win by god do you feel good !!

All i will say , my twopenneth worth if you will , is try to have an escapse route planned incase it goes tits up (example - the possiblilty of borrowing a few quid to see you through , or upping your overdraft etc etc ) it just takes the pressure off your selections and that always helps ....

And try to lay , or to back short , put the odds in your favour . Back things that you wouldnt want to lay ,if you must back , it works for me . Easier to lay though , because anything can lose .............

And what the feck you doing backing dogs ??? FFS biggest lottery there is ...

Your only 20 , take it from some1 who`s tried everything and steer clear of dogs ..... the only way ive found to make money consistently is to LAY horses ,and back at short odds on sports you know something about so that you KNOW THAT THEY REALLY ARE THAT SHORT

Good luck mate
