Greed and loss of discipline = No Supper for me ........

Quite frankly a day to forget, work was manic not sure if it was the McCoy factor but phones never stopped ringing and the sharks were out in force trying to get on a hooky snooker match Barry Hawkins v Joe Perry backing the draw at all rates from 6/4 down to 4/9 when we pulled the plug on the event !!!! Didnt see the match but the comments on the betfair forum were quite amusing although we were doing our dough, thats the second dodgy match in the last month or so and the authorities need to crack down on this or else snooker will lose all credibility and the smaller events/matches will not get priced up.

Now onto my day of personal punting where a little greed and loss of discipline raised its ugly head, i took a beating for this and i promise to be a good boy for the next couple of months at least !! Now Optimum put up No Supper, who runs in the Optimum colours in the 2.00 Plumpton, a very confident 6 point selection. I had £150 @ 13/8 with the Tote, i could have taken 6/4 BOG with Stan James but never in a month of Sundays did i expect it to finish longer than these prices............ As we aproached the race 11/10-6/5-5/4 were the prices generally on offer from the bookies, but on course it drifted out to 2/1 before returning an sp of 7/4, well i knew the horse was fwf.......... fit well fancied so i dipped my toe in again having £100 @ 3.00 on the exchanges, then when i saw 9/4 on the exchanges i thought id take advantage of their genourosity !!! a sort of green mist descended and £100 @ 3.30 was placed and talking of mists ............. for good measure i had a £50 saver on Mist Again @ 7.2 after a word from a respected judge ;-( yes it all went pear shaped and overall a loss £400 on the race.
