A few days ago after tipping New Zealand to win the cricket World Cup, I started a small online betting account.....here's the state of play!

A few days ago Letty amazed us all with her accurate selection of winning horses. So, just for fun, starting with a £20 kitty, I thought it would be interesting to see how long it takes me to lose the lot (which I will, the bookie always wins)....

Current Bets

New Zealand to win cricket World Cup; £1 @ 9/1; potential return £10

The Kiwis recently whupped the Aussies 3-0 in a one day series, in great form coming into the World Cup.

New Zealand each way for cricket World Cup; £1 @ 9/2; £5.50

In case they slip up in the final!

Liverpool to beat Aston Villa; £1 @ 4/5; £1.80

Rafa's team look too good for Villa today.

Andy Murray to winn Sports Personality Of The Year; £1 @ 2/1; £3

It's a voting contest, Murray will appeal to the young ladies who make most of the votes in all these reality shows. May be in trouble if, somehow, Michael Vaughan wins the cricket World Cup with England (won't happen though).

Lost Bets

Southend, Bayer Leverkusen, Arbroath, St Etienne to win, 4-way accumulator; £1 @ 15/1. Southend drew, Arbroath match abandoned, St Etienne won....

Current State Of Play

Account £15.00

Potential Winnings £20.30

Will It Happen?

No chance!
