    I placed a bet of £2,000 on Scotland to vote NO
    Here is the betting slip:



    Winnings: £334.34

    It's already going back to the *********** I used to make the deposit.

    I have stopped gambling completely since the 25th of June, however in this case even my wife told me that this time it's okay to place a bet on Scotland to vote NO, there were just too many countries, nations, banks, governments, that couldn't have let it happen, and the "NO" camp had more cash to invest on ads and such.

    Glad it's over now, and I would be off from betting, this is just a one off, but I felt like sharing it here.

    Good luck to anyone who bets or chooses to avoid betting, enjoy your life!

          Thanks JJ - and yes, honesty is the best policy...
          Too bad my card got limits, that's the most I could place with it ...

            Nothing wrong with spot betting if you have an 80% chance of winning

                                  Just popped back into this thread to see what people have to say ... and they got so much crap to share with others... does anyone of you have something constructive to say?!

                                  I've stopped gambling and I keep on stopping ... this bet was a one-off, and I spoke with my wife before doing it ... it was OK ... as one mentioned here ... this bet was a winning bet before it even started!

                                    I'm looking at it differently.
                                    It's only temporarily when you place a bet like this, and I had a good reason to place it.

                                    By the way, money is in the bank account, that's the benefit of using reputable websites like Bet365 ... Initially I thought of using TitanBet, I self excluded myself from this website in 2010 and they were OK to open the account even though I self-excluded it permanently ... they asked me to confirm by email bla bla bla ... I just deleted this email and went to Bet365, I'm self-excluded from there as well but apparently if you manage to get a new account and deposit with a card you never used before, you can still place a bet before they will close down the account, and they would still honor your bet in that case ... very nice of them.

                                      It's politics, and how can people sleep at night making money on boxing knowingly encouraging idiots to fight (and even kill) each other? Same can apply to horse racing (horses are hurt from racing) and other things...

                                      But I guess you like to think small so....

                                        It was an irregular bet that I placed ... it wasn't soccer/football, basketball, tennis and all the other likes ... it was a unique one, betting on the outcome of the Scottish Referendum ... lots of reasons to do that. I am not back to gambling and I am not back to bet on sports ... it was one off for me and I felt the need to be honest and post it in this forum. If I would fall back into it I would advise accordingly, but sorry for you I'm not betting again ... just got the money from Bet365 and using it for vacation for me & my wife (who was also supportive of placing this specific bet, but against gambling in general).

                                          You should write a book on being a degenerate gambler. You would actually make more money than when you gamble but without the rush. But you won't do that.
