A blog neglected

Well, it's been a couple of weeks. The truth is that I haven't had anything remotely interesting to blog about. I could have done small updates along the lines of "I'm bored" etc etc but I thought I'd leave it for a bit.

At the moment I'm sat waiting/hoping for play to get underway in the third day of the third Ashes test. I've been doing a fair bit of both punting and trading lately and it's been going well. I had a bit on Mark Webber to win the F1 World Championship when he was at 33/1. I've never had an interest in F1 before and have always found it boring. However, it's bloody good fun to watch a Grand Prix when you have money on it. I've also had a bet on Newcastle to finish bottom of the Championship on a handicap market; again this was inspired from Kickingbets.

I've been betting on most of the international and domestic cricket this last month and that's also been going alright. Lots of small wins add up in the end. Having said all this, I'm royally screwing up this third Ashes test. Gambling on the weather is not fun. My position at the moment is a big lay of the draw at 1.38, hopefully there'll be some play today and a few wickets will fall if conditions suit the bowlers. I heard an interview a while ago with Rudi Koertzen though and it doesn't sound too good - apparently the ground is in worse condition than it was on the first day (which was awful).

One last thing, for any other keen gamblers out there there is a new social network where there's a lot of debate and chat about sports and trading etc. Check it out: The Sports Exchange

That's about it for now, I'll keep trying to do smaller updates on Twitter.
