Hi, i hope you're all well.
I am a new member and would say probably still in denial. I have bet for year on sports and to the outside world in a jack the lad who loves an accumulator. In reality one bet, leads to another and then another to chase my losses.
I had gone 7 months without a bet then the last two weekends I've bet more than I have liked to again.
I want to be able to just have the odd bet but I know that just leads down one path. It sounds daft but I dread the thought of not betting again and admitting that I have a problem. I feel too embarrassed to talk to my close friends and family about it.
Anyway enough rambling and well done to everyone who is smashing it ?
i think the title you have chosen speaks volumes
theres a very fine line between enjoying a punt and a gambling addiction some can walk that tight rope others cannot
personally i find myself able to manage the balancing act with sports i usually place my bet and then if it loses i dont really intend on chasing it
online tables is a completely different kettle of fish and i can lose my head quickly so i am banned from all of them
