It's not my fault...

You are the master of your destiny, to a certain extent. I mastered another losing day from a winning position but I'm not too worried, this is all part of gambling.

Here are today's results:

What a great day for Pro Bandit getting the winners for both races we had selections in. On the other hand my trading had another losing day, it was caused by accidentally overlooking a bet I'd placed and not following up by greening it. Another losing bet was caused by yet another slip, this time as I was just greening up the away team equalised, I couldn't believe it. But that leaves me with something to do tomorrow evening, get my Betfair calculator sorted in Excel with commission included. Shouldn't take more than 10 minutes, and could of saved me 2 PTS today.

Talking of preempting things, I've been a little reactive as of late, probably because I'm concentrating on what's going on now, but there are things we must foresee and being proactive in this business is a must. I've woken up so tomorrow is another day, and another opportunity. The learning curve will never stop, gambling is dynamic and so are markets, our ability to adapt and learn with the times enables us to maintain an edge over other punters and bookies alike, I love gambling, not because of the money, but because it's somewhere where if you are not afraid to put in the hard work and dedication you are likely to find your niche whereby you can pile the money on and get back what you deserve, don't be afraid of being a specialist!

Until tomorrow
