He's onto a winner, 4 horses up from a possible 6 so far.
He knows that the 4 are giving him at least 40 quid.
5 might be 200 quid.
All six is just short of 3 grand.
The offer on the table is £115.
You're the gambler, what do YOU do?
Let it ride?
Take the money?
Let it go one more for maybe £60/70?
Are you a gambler sonny?
Answer the question and then I'll let you know what I did :hehe:
Let it run.
You're only losing your stake.
If you're going to flake after four why pick six?
Speak from experience of having cashed out an acca of about a grand early and it certainly didn't feel like much of a win after the remaining sides won.
I always let it ride, then lose, then chase my losses, then lose again and become depressed and angry. The life of an impulsive man with an addictive personality.
I feel you.Quote:

I let it ride and took about £45.
You can't take £115 though when there's close to £3k at stake.
This weekend Ive been a goal and a corner away from £700. Finally won £158 off a tenner tonight.Quote:

I can't compare to be fair as I do only bet pennies, on the horses anyway.Quote:

Horse racing is something that's just in my family history, almost in my DNA. It's crooked as f*ck, all-sorts of dodgy shite goes on in horse racing.
There are little pinches to be had though if you follow it.
I've had £300ish twice from 63p lucky 63 bet's, and a number of 20/30/40/50 quid wins too.
Been a while since I've had a decent footy acca up, but I know a fella that hit over £100k from a footy acca.
Never been a horse racing fan, always pick donkeys when I do bet haha.Quote:

Instead of both teams to score. Only Swansea let me down for £6000. Had to be them.
£700 off a tenner on the weekend. First bet in months. I look every week, if I don't feel confident I don't bother.
That's still a nice little raise from a tenner :thumbup:Quote:

He also does a large acca of corners, BTTS and total goals once or twice a week that's worth following as they come with research and always go close. He hit a 50-1 on the weekend (it was 100-1 but one of the bets voided so it went to 50-1). Needless to say I cashed out just before injury time for £65 off a fiver in the penultimate game, then they immediately scored keeping the bet alive. The last game needed 10 corners which came in early.
Never cashing out again.
Bookies only offer cash outs for one reason, and it isn't so you get more money out of them...
Cheers for the heads up, just added him on twitter :thumbup:Quote:
