There is still that temptation to try and win small amounts back, especially now that the euros are on, to prevent this I have put a cooling period on my account. I was chasing my losses - doubling my bets. I had budgeted my whole month around my winnings, that has gone out of the window. I am sitting here depressed, wondering why I didn't quit when ahead. The bookies heavy favourites would lose, tipsters that I follow who have a high win percentage, would lose when I decided to follow their picks. On both bets I lost £400 and £60 repectively.Įverything that could possibly go wrong, went wrong. Only this time, I must have lost 20 bets in the row, bets that I would not think would lose at all such as Sareena Williams losing the French open final, to Roger Federer getting beaten at the ATP Stuttgurt which is on his favourite surface - grass. The pattern generally was where I would have 2 to 3 losses, followed by 4-5 wins, ultimately I would be up.

I always had bad runs, but they never reached the level where I could not even win one bet for a prolonged period of time. Just one week ago, I entered a never ending losing streak being 1k up, I thought that this was going to be temporary.

I have lost all of my winnings plus my own money. Most of my winnings were on the NBA basketball, but I had won money on other sports. It was only 4 weeks ago, I was up 1,000 pounds from betting on sports. At the start of the month I had £2,800 in my account, now I only have £454 in my account, in effect losing £2,000. I have gambled on and off on sports betting, I am not in debt but quite skint.
