My run of bad form has continued with losing day after losing day leaving me with a total profit of £720.83 for the month and a strike rate of 54% which is clearly not good enough. Still, for the time being I’m still in profit and will be looking to improve on that before the month is out. Read more

Chelsea fell behind to a shock 28th minute goal when Stephen Hunt put the visitors ahead with a tap in from close range. Didier Drogba got Chelsea back in the game with a spectacular free kick that Ronaldo would have been proud of. Nicholas Anelka could have put Chelsea ahead shortly after when a ball found him in the box but he blasted it straight at the keeper. Read more

Do any actually work? Below I’ve taken a look at some of the best gizmos available and while I don’t condone their use you have to applaud the inventory behind them. Read more

If you’re looking to place a season long bet then look no further than the top goal scorer market. There is always plenty of value to be had and trading opportunities available.

As you can see the screen is split into two sides, one is blue and the other is pink. The blue side is used to place a ‘back’ bet which I’ll cover in more detail in another post. What I’ll be focusing on in this post is the pink side of the screen which is used to place a ‘lay’ bet. There are three columns on the ‘lay’ side. The pink column shows the best available odds for that particular selection. Read more

Hi, I’m Dave; a 24 year old semi-professional gambler. I live in London, England and have been gambling online since 2004. I make a large part of my living betting on football matches and horse racing on the betting exchanges.
I placed my first bet when I was 11 years old when I backed Superior Finish in the 1996 Grand National. I didn’t win that day but the thrill of betting has had me hooked ever since.
In the past 12 months I’ve made over £24,000 from sports betting with my biggest single win coming on Kauto Star in the Cheltenham Gold Cup when I scooped £5,000.
