It's all about the accumulators. That's the only thing I've really done on the odd occasion. Never won any serious money.

I usually have a flutter on the Grand National. Put a couple of each way bets on in 2011 and got the horses that came 2nd and 3rd. Ended up (between winnings and free bets) ahead by £40. I put £10 on Everton to win four of their remaining fixtures (which they did all four!) which paid for my dad and myself to go to our final game of the season (Carlo Ancelotti's final Chelsea game) and have a good weekend in Liverpool.
