Tonight's bets

I should really apologise for not updating the blog with any thoughts as I keep having lots and lots of thoughts floating around my head about what I can do to make this blog an enjoyable read as well as help myself by improving staking and so on. However, my full-time work committments are taking up an amazing amount of my time and mental energy (if there's such a thing!) at the moment, so I can't really think about anything else in any depth or my head would explode.

Therefore, everything around staking etc. stays the same and I just roll on to another set of midweek fixtures with the same staking plan as Saturday.

I placed all these bets last night and due to sheer tiredness I think, I backed the wrong team in one of them but I've managed to lay them off on Betfair today, so if they win, it's a tiny loss on the bet. I did back the other team I meant to back last night though, so if the original team I backed wins, it will be an expensive change of bet!

Lots of bets today and last night, I did feel a bit robotic placing the bets as I didn't even know what I was doing really. The stakes are irrelevant now (I just place whatever the spreadsheet tells me to) but I was clearly going to Corals too often last night as they refused my full bet on Portsmouth. No hassle really as I backed them elsewhere and split the stake but looking at my bets I placed, I was placing too many with Corals when I should really be spreading them around a bit. Again, that's just tiredness as I wasn't thinking about what I was doing but I'll forgive myself that.

I noticed Portsmouth were actually only 2 on Betfair when I backing at 2 with Corals, so maybe that's why I got refused my full stake. Anyway, I'll see what happens with my next set of bets at the weekend.

I can open a Eurobet account if I want to and I can also use my fiance's name to open an account with Corals also, so I've got options if I need a new account. In addition, I was intending on opening 2 accounts a week going forward but I've sort of stagnated on 16 bookmaker accounts for a few weeks due to lack of time. I'll maybe look to open a few more this weekend to allow me to keep spreading bets around.

I've not really looked into any of the specialised footie sites yet (Dimes etc.), so I'll maybe start trying these guys in future but no rush at the moment. I'm a very small fish in a massive pond I feel at the moment and my ROI is so low with so many bets, I can't imagine bookmakers are seeing me as anything other than some footie nut who's backing lots of teams all the time and not getting very far! (I'll show them ;) )

Anyway, here's tonight's bets. A lot of weight has been placed on the win Portsmouth had last weekend, so we'll see if they can carry on with that sort of performance!
