Today's bet

I was going to do Gretna, at 2-9, but have gone for Chelsea at 1-4 instead, as the draw and away odds are longer, implying greater confidence in the home result. Or just a smaller overround, which they'd be able to afford because of the greater amounts likely to be wagered on that match. Anyway...
8 quid on Chelsea at 1.25

Land of the free

Except the US Congress just passed a bill with a rider that kills online gambling, probably interpretable to take all the US players away from online poker too. It'll take a while to see how it pans out, but if you have shares in any online sites, well, you should have sold them on Friday.
It'll be interesting to see how it affects the online games - they may get softer, or they may not, the Scandis are tough cookies.

another hot streak?

Fiver in last Saturday's Thunderball
Tenner from the National on Wednesday
6.80 from the Euromillions last night
Hmmmm

aaargh

Chelsea blew it! Down to 9.18!!!
7 on Valencia at 1.28 to beat Gimnastic tomorrow evening, then.
If that goes awry, I'll whack the remaining 2.18 on something really silly.
