A Mere Mortal

I am no longer a Gambling God and it's all my fault.

When I was looking for a big idea to stike this week I went for a whole load of half point bets on the sport events that I was required to bet on.

I broke the rules.

The minimum bet on each selection was one point and as I had done these 0.5pt bets they were deemed null and void so I had to quickly change all the bets in the twelfth hour.

I had to cut out a lot of my selections and it resulted in me throwing away some bankers and going with long shots.

If I thought I was out of it a few days ago then I really do know I am now!

I had one winner. This came in the Rugby Union bet that I did. I had New Zealand to win both halves in their game agaisnt France, Argentina to win with a -4 handicap against Italy and Scotland to win their match by more than ten points.

The selections came in making me a little under 17 points profit so I won't be racking up nil on the leaderboard.

I am on the ropes in this one, folks!
