Day 73: Nada
That’s Spanish for sweet fa and that’s all the much anticipated return to the friendly blackjack tables of Stan James was worth.
I dropped £30.50 quick as a flash and then headed over to the poker tables of ‘Stars where I dumped out another £36 on the tilt. Crap day all in.
Day 74: 1 in 14 million
Quickly tiring of this poor streak I decided to take a long shot and bought two lucky dips at a cost of £2. Neither helped.
Day 75: Murray’s mint?
Let’s hope so. Way back on day 2 I saw a man on telly tip Andy Murray for the US Open so I stuck a tenner on him at 5/2. So far, so good.
Day 76: Jugs full o’ cash
Sophie won Big Brother as predicted last week so I had a good start to the weekend with a £21 winner.
It didn’t last long as I quickly lost £15 on my first try at online roulette and followed it up with £10.50 down on the blackjack.
Day 77: Sharpner
Capping a disappointing run on (well, pretty much any) tables I further proved I’m no Devilfish just because I spent a weekend with a few pros. £31.68 (give or take the odd cent) dropped over two hours across 4 tables. At one stage I won $50 in two hands but this only made me more cocky and I wasted it with some draw hands I shouldn’t have been anywhere near as well as a few badbeats, natch.
Day 78: Stick a pin in a page
At a loss for what to do I plumped for Jim Furyk (cool name!!) to win the Deutsche Bank Championship Golf. He went straight on to shoot a round at two over par 
It ain’t over yet but it ain’t pretty.
Day 79: Football Factory
I missed the footie acca this weekend because of the England match so I went as close as I could and backed England, Scotland and Northern Ireland to win their respective matches on Wednesday at a combined price of 12/1.
About as random as it gets!
