Was looking at horses in the paper ever since an early age. My dads side of the family are all heavy gamblers and always have been. My Nan loved a bet and I remember her placing £1 placepots for me when I was about 10/11.
Stuck £100 in 21casino last night and played this at 40p. Got the bonus when I was down to about £9 and it paid £80.
I then decided it would be a good idea to buy a £20 bonus….which I then did another three times
Buy1 – 5 spins 324 megaways; 22p
Buy2 – 5 spins 324 megaways; 12p
Buy3 – 10 spins 324 megaways; £11
Buy4 – 5 spins 324 megaways: 28p
I think those are the right amounts but I was playing after a few beers so might be a little out but won’t be far off. Won’t be buying the bonus ever again but will still play on small stakes hoping to land the 15 spins and 10,000 ways
I don’t know, since they bowed to the animal rights brigade and changed the fences, I think the level of unknown has gone.
Addiction exists, Everything is OK in moderation and its down to the individual to change, no one else.
Sometimes, for reasons unknown to myself I will gamble way more than I should, and don’t win. The casino existing makes this possible, but is it their fault? No, it’s mine.
every day I buy a minimum of a four pack from my local shop.. The Indian guy sells them to me everyday sometimes 8 sometimes 16, is it his fault that I have a drinking problem? No, I’m an adult and am making my own bad decisions.
On the flip side there are people who enjoy a drink every now and again and an affordable flutter on the slots and have no negative consequences, does my bad behavior mean they shouldn’t be allowed to enjoy it responsibley? Because it’s availability might fuck people like me up? No. We all need to take responsibility for our actions regardless how painful it is to admit that you and no-one else spent a month’s wages in 20mins or drank so much you blacked out and end up in court. Its still your fault. Its hard to accept your own fuck ups and its so much easier to blame others but we all have them, we all need to take ownership of them. At that point and only that point can you begin to rebuild.
For context I’m an ex drug addict, borderline alcoholic and a compulsive gambler, I understand the beast and I battle it as best I can.
This post hit home with me a lot especially the last paragraph. I’ve not managed to curb any of the three addictions mentioned and at times do lose control of one or more of them.
Only I can change it, there’s help and guidance out there of course but it’s on me to choose not to have the bet or take a swig.
It’s a struggle mate, it really is but the only way is up.. This time last year I was coming off benzos, oxy and Charlie, cutting my drink and expecting a prison sentence.. I’ve now not touched any drugs (except pot) I still drink too much but not way way too much and I’m not going to jail lol.
I found I often swap one addiction for another and go round in circles, in the end I upped and moved cities to change, that and drinking non alcoholic beer helped a lot.. Gambling though I find so much harder as its a very lonely addiction, something friends mostly don’t understand and you do on your own.
If you ever need a chat mate feel free to ask bandit or seedy for my email any time..
Appreciate that mate thanks. It’s the powder for me as well so you’ll know where I’m at.
Started seeing a girl who’s trying to help so hopefully I can turn it round but as said before, I have to want to change or it won’t work.

The only way to beat it in my opinion is finding hobbies. Once the boredom takes hold your brain is wired to remember what you used to do when you had free time.
Go to GA meetings every night they do work for a lot of people
Wishing you all the best
The option to reverse whithdrawals is without doubt the worst thing about betting sites. Period.
I like it because it bonuses often (mug alert) but I’ve had no big wins as yet probably best is about 40x
Tottenham home and away and over land and sea for about 20 years now. I wouldn’t want to count what I’ve spent following the bastards ?
Our current team is easily the best in my lifetime and we still come up short but what chance do you have against the likes of City. Looks like another £80m midfielder incoming for them in Saul from Atletico.
I cannot remember the last accumulator I had up. Been a terrible run stretching about 18 months.
I wish I could quit football betting !
