Gambling is a mugs game ...

... or is it? I walk past a bookies at least once a week and am always intrigued by the 'Ipswich to win, 2-1, Counago to score, you win £300' or some such. So this season (which starts in ten minutes, I'm so excited) I am going to place £1 on each of the recommended window bets at Ladbrokes and see how I get on. I will lose no more than 40 something english pounds and I might even win a few bob.
So... Ipswich to beat Coventry, 2-1. Odds 8 to 1. £1 bet placed (and yes, I did need help filling in the form).
