Ohhh ******** rith, that is bad, bad luck.

Sometimes I think that I get extremely bad luck when my bets don't come off, but nothing compares to that.

Wow Rith that is a really sad way to lose $2k trying to make a measely $20.00

I suggest you bet $3k on the Aussies tonight at around $1.70 to make a return of $5,100.00 giving you a small profit of $100.00

:eek:

lucky i didnt take your advice Jack Daniels

I sincerely hope that Jack was just joking with his 'advice'. Australia were shocking value at $1.70 and chasing losses betting on such an out of form team at such poor value is just asking for trouble.

Life's a pitch for Aussie backers

TWO Victorian punters have been clean-bowled by Bangladesh's shock win over Australia.

One blew a staggering $50,000 trying to win just $500. Another kissed goodbye to $20,000 in a bid to win a paltry $200.
And a Northern Territory man lost $30,000 in one of cricket's biggest upsets.

TAB Sportsbet and Centrebet, which offered just $1.01 for an Aussie win, held the massive bets.

"I know the guy who lost $30,000 and I asked, 'Why did you do it?' and he said, 'It seemed like a good way for me to boost my drinking bank for Saturday night'," Centrebet's Gerard Daffy said. "Now the poor bloke can't drink for three months."
