My favorite pastime after football. Let's have a thread where we can share betting tips and sites where we can bet on.

I am an expert on MLS if anyone needs tips :)

Plako, you always struck me as a frugal type. Do you make money off your betting?

Of course I am frugal, I am from Gjirokastra :)

No I don't make money from betting, I like to bet/gamble for fun and I have limits. I bet on soccer and play blackjack/poker. You can easily lose your shirt and I learned my lesson when I bet $300 on Germany to beat Japan at home in the 2009 Women's World Cup, which I thought was a sure bet :)

I always like gambling, since I was a little kid, but I always had control over it. You can't make money from gambling, unless you're a professional poker player. I have two friends and a cousin who have lost 6 figures gambling, two of them playing blackjack in Atlantic City and the other betting on sports with bookies. It's not pretty.

Couldn't imagine losing thousands. I get pissed when I lose a 20.

I only bet when I visit Albania. I think I'm probably at plus $300 or so in my lifetime :)

I won that like over 3-4 visits. Had fun winning it. Time to move on. I'm due for a loss if I go back.
