I had my first bet of the year this weekend and I ended up ninety-one pence down.
I was offered a free ten pound stake with Sky Bet, all I had to do was make a bet of ten pounds on something and then I would get a free tenner to bet with.
Newcastle's odds of beating Middlesbrough were 11/10 so I put the original money on the Magpies and then placed the free bet on the Giants to win the Super Bowl.
There was a method to my madness. I thought Newcastle had the better chance of winning for me so - as I was only going to be refunded the winnings and not the stake from the free bet - I went with the soccer match as my main bet.
Newcastle ruined it for me. They were 1-0 up but conceded a goal later in the game to end the match as a draw.
New York winning in what I consider the best Super Bowl I have seen won me back £9.09. It could have been worse!
