You wouldn’t believe the streak I was on—weeks of near misses, heartbreakers, and bad luck in my football bets. I started thinking maybe the betting gods had a personal vendetta against me. But last night? Oh, it was glorious.
I put down £50 on Bristol City to win and, for once, they actually pulled it off. That final goal had me jumping off the sofa so fast I nearly sent my cup of tea flying across the room. My husband just shook his head, muttering something about me getting too worked up over “a silly bet.” He doesn’t get it—the thrill, the anticipation, the fact that I finally had one go my way!
I don’t go wild with gambling, just a little here and there for fun, but sometimes I wonder if I should take a more strategic approach. Do any of you lot actually study stats properly before betting, or is it more gut instinct? Because let’s be honest—half the time, the so-called "favorites" end up bottling it anyway.
What’s your biggest football bet win—or loss? (C’mon, share your pain, make me feel better!)
