That's exactly why you shouldn't bet what you can't afford to lose.

the harsh realities of gambling... it's not all over till the fat lady sings
a lot of funny things go on in betting in running. I was on another message board, and for a few minutes, during the Milan derby recently, PaddyPower had Inter at 10-1 (NOT on) to win, whilst 2-0 up. So a guy put quite a bit on, knowing it was a mistake but that they would have to honour it. Well they changed the odds to ON quite quickly, so a couple of people put money on AC to win at quite high odds. I came back and the threads when AC scored, equlaised and then won were hilarious, the guy backing Inter at ridiculous odds was close to suicide, and I think the guy at PaddyPower might have just managed to keep his job.
