Profit/loss since last update: -£52
Early in 2007 I lost a hundred quid betting in-running on Luton v Birmingham on a Friday night when I was bored. Yesterday I lost thirty quid on Indian Twenty20 cricket. Are there any positives to take from this? Maybe the fact that I'm not leaving myself with three-figure liabilities any more (that's not to say it won't happen again). But apart from that, the conclusion is that I'm a still a gambling degenerate and always will be.
The other £22 loss came from horse recommendations from what I thought were decent sources, a small football accumulator and a bet on Massa to get a podium finish in the Aussie Grand Prix.
I've decided to take action, and I will be taking a break from trading for a while. I'll continue to have small punts on things if I think there is value, but apart from that it will be poker that will feed my addiction. For some reason, I'm much more disciplined with my bankroll-management in poker and it's the only form of gambling that I've achieved steady results in.
Enough on gambling. Last night was great fun. It's incredible the amount of enjoyment that four 22 year-old guys can get from kicking a tennis ball towards a bin, doing keepy-uppies in between and with a few beers on the side. Top evening! (Apart from the fact that Arsenal have now lost the Premiership - FACT)

Keep at it. We all have those "I shouldnt have done that" moment, usually followed by a "I shouldnt have done that too" moment.
