Squids

When I started my gambling "career" I logged everything in a spreadsheet.  I started around Dec. 2005 so after updating my "Squids" graph to include my tradefair profit (see below) I have made over £5K in just over 2.5 years. It's come from blackjack bonuses and matched betting mostly, and it feels good to make a profit from an industry which is actively trying to "rip the skin off its customer's faces", as one gambling  industry exec. put it.

Not played a lot of poker lately, 1 session of $25NL six-max to be exact. I did well and got my bankroll back above $1K.

Done a bit more trading/spread betting with my free £100 from tradefair.com, running it up to £548 trading on a few different shares. I'm probably going to stop now and withdraw/quit while I'm ahead.  I don't really have a strategy that will work long term, the profit has largely been down to luck, but I'll take it. I'm sure the money will come in useful very soon, as there are a couple of big life changes coming up for me shortly, I just feel like I'm waiting around for things to happen a the mo.  More news to follow :-)
