My first bet, like most, was on the Grand National. That gave way to ambitious football accas on a Saturday afternoon. Me and my brother would fill out the slips, pockets stuffed with shrapnel.
Although my brother's faith was fleeting, after I won a 30/1 BTTS acca in dramatic fashion, I was hooked. Fast forward a few years and the enthusiasm for punting still remains. This, combined
with my background in journalism, means I get to share my mostly misguided angles with the betting community trying to find value.
