yeah id never say that phrase, its reserved for morons or $3 sng grinders.

When i was in the bookies today there was this race from baden baden, and the jolly got turned over, and some guy slammed his fist into the door and then walked out, and it struck me that people gamble on anything to get a score, they dont care about their edge, and as he was walking away it struck me how scummy the entire gambling industry is.... I lost a really big sum of money on ladbrokes last year and around christmas I got a call from a manager at ladbrokes to wish me a merry christmas and to tell me i was a great client of theirs, and i was drunk and the guy had an irish accent so he was winning me over, and then he had to ask me what i fancied in the King george, and it struck me that they really dont give a crap about anyone other then their bottom line. It made me feel really bad

will it stop me gambling? nope
will it stop me drinking? nope
will I care about it in the morning? doubt it

but at the time, it felt so sleezy.

Time to give up gambling when the bookie has your number to chase your bets:). 
e
Also i can't stand the old boys who back favourites every race then moan like feck when they lose as if it was a gimme, jockey is a tit etc etc!!  This same guy in the bookies when im in there moans  every race when fav's get beat , needs a slap the old bastard. you know who im talking about bandit.

Or even worse (and I've only seen this in Glasgow on a regular basis) people cheering home a horse in a race they don't actually have a bet in..pillocks the whole lot of 'em.

haha yeah, although I must admit that when I back a spencer jolly, and he gets that horse anchored at the back of the field and loses by a length, I often mutter a few choice words!

The most irritating one i find(and i dont know if this is just the same geezer following me around every shop or not but i hear it so often) is:"i had a 20p s/fc in that last race a portman park and it came in the other way, look at the prices, 33/1 and 20s, how unlucky am i"? whilst he runs around showing everyone the bet!

The next time i overhear someone say that i'm gonna say "could you not have just reversed it for 10p then? look at the prices!!!! and if you were so disposed to getting it for 20p could you not have just gone nuts and added another 20p to the bet"!!!

that reminds me of a genius comment i overheard someone saying yesterday....

apparently, when there are 2 horses at 12/1 or 14/1 in one of these rigged electrical fake races, one of those horses "always" wins. Of course, this guy waits til the 12/1 horse wins before mentioning it. Dont tell too many people this system though, otherwise the bookies will cotton on.

Couldn't you have pm'd me that, you've made it public knowledge now!!!

talking of genius comments watching the chester meeting on channel 4 the other week the last televised race had a horse with a saddle problem, they were rushing around to rectify it and it turned out for whatever reason they couldn't put the sheet with his number on it back on him after they fixed it, Alice plunket who was watching the horse being re-saddled  said: "for those of you that have backed him and are worried about not being able to see him in the race i can tell you that he's number 1"!!

they mug bets but good fun. the reason they are mug bets are if you have a lucky 15 and one horse loses it takes down 5 bets instantly and so on.
