Nov 5th – Nov 11th -$22,577.59

Well, easy come easy go it seems. If this loss had come last week it would have been devastating. It’s funny how we perceive losses. I have written an article that will be posted tomorrow that has helped me deal with these horrendous weeks. Hopefully it might help you also, but I guess only if you have been doing this for a while and have made a profit (which is very few). The exact opposite to last week and from a position of hope, I now just feel empty again. Why I try and project forward when I have no control over the outcome is beyond me. As long as I continue to do the things I can control (getting best odds, recording everything, so on), then the results will look after themselves as they have done for the past 4 and a half years.

Sportpunter had an absolute shocker of a week. NBL by far the worst of a bad bunch, losing $14,000. The same thing happened in week 1 of the season and that was followed by weeks of great wins, hopefully I see a repeat. The NFL Totals made $1,700 and the NHL Totals lost $1,500. After a cracking first week in the NBA, it came back to earth with a $3,300 loss. On the rare occasions SP doesn’t perform well, the rest of the tipsters have a decent week. Apart from 1 or 2, that didn’t happen.

Gowi did well with $4,100 profit. Still waiting on my payout in the Golf which will be a very welcome addition. The other Golf tipsters lost $500 combined. PCG lost $100.

Onto the Football tipsters and I’m once again questioning why I decided to continue with TFA, another poor week with a $5,150 loss and that brings the season to well over $11,000 in the red. The only shining light is the Euro picks. At $500 stakes, it will only take a few good weeks to get that to break even, but the fact I’ll be cheering at break even is not a good sign. The last 2 seasons have been very different from the first one. I can’t remember the Winabob service having a winning week this year. A $400 loss this week brings his season loss to over $17,000. The shining light is Football Elite with back to back good weeks. This week $4,400 was added to the pot and I now sit on $6,400 profit. Once that hits $10,000 profit, then £100 will need to be paid. Football Value lost $1,000 and Football Investor lost $4,150 over the combo and Euro bets.

My little experiment with betting the opposite side when the odds move more then 20% continues to do well, with another $500 profit this week. Still early days and only 16 bets in totals, but I can see a time where I join popular services that make prices crash just so I can bet against them. My own personal picks had an absolute disaster week losing $3,300.

I was really hoping for this to be a +20k week and to be in a good position moving into the final month of the year, but that isn’t the case. Nothing I can do about it but continue on. No tipsters have reached the banks I set up for them, so right now there is no real concern. The roller-coaster continues on unabated and I’ll just cling on for dear life and hope that cliff never appears. Tune in tomorrow for a pretty decent article.
