I've just been sitting thinking about my recent loss of £40 odds - I had built that up from free game winnings and playing roulette so it was free money, but still i don't like losing money!! Its hard to avoid when gambling though isn't it? Is it????
Hmmmmm basically i was thinking if i hadn't left that money in the account then i wouldn't have gambled with it all and lost it.....maybe thats something i need to rethink!!
So, today i thought i might try something a little bit different. I don't really mind risking a small amount of cash (esp if its for research purposes) so the new plan is to start the week with £10, play a few games of roulette to bump it up gradually using 10p bets and withdraw it while i'm on the up.....
Now, this strategy depends on winning to start with or i wouldn't be up at all and the chances of winning straight away are pretty low so i need a cut off point - i figure if i don't win within the first 20 bets (£2) its time to stop and try again the following day. It is an experiment but at least if it goes wrong i have only lost £10 right?
Well, today i tried it - i put £10 into the account (which was back at zero cos i lost my £1.18 too), i played some games and got up to £13 odds then started losing again. I decided to stop betting while i was still in profit and withdrew £11.80 - not a huge amount i know, but it is a profit and i am hoping to learn how to improve on the strategy as i go.
So far then i am +£1.80 - i will try it again tomorrow and see how i get on :)
