I too was part of a syndicate. I started it in my Faculty and all were willing. Didn't do anything like what you did and I wish we had done so, and had the wherewithall to have done so, but we didn't so we just ran the same numbers over and over again. At the beginning we won a few times but then it tailed off and people lost interest, so we stopped.
It's a shame you couldn't convince your syndicate to go along with your ideas. but that's life.
so you n longer gamble but you have premium bonds which I accept aren't a gamble as you can never lose your stake.
My Dad's method was a modification of Martingale, and as I said it worked for him but was so boring. It didn't always work and one evening he lost everything, (he only ever went with what he could afford to lose) except for one last punt. So he put it on a number instead of a colour and by some miracle won, so got his stake back and more!
All good fun!!:):):)
Yer, i use pb's as eye keep me stake money. Eye accept a loss if not winning, which is interest only. In all gambling situations the house has the upper hand. They wouldn't do it if the odds were against them. The only way to guarantee a win is where a new peep signs up to 2 different companies and places opposing bets on the same game. Yer then get some free money to put on fer joining after yer first bet wiv yer own money. Use that anorl on oppising bets each side. In football bet A team wiv one company and B team wiv the other. One side will win. Take the profit which includes the free money bet from one side. Then close both accounts. The bet using the free money will cancel losing yer own money on the other side. Yer have to pick the right amount/bet to do this and win. Also odds same or very close. Always good to get one over on them. Its yer only chance when they fink they is reeling yer in. :)

Since doing some clever stuff wiv stat's years ago eye now see fings differently. They may tell yer there's 1 in 2o chance ov say winning 10 sovs on the lottery. Not overall its somefink over 1 in 100 ov winning any prize. So a bit ovva con on how they advertise. Larger prizes have higher odds.
 
Na cant as I have plans for upstairs ;) Plus I have use of 3 ramps less than a mile away if I need one
one is a four post the others are two posters (in different places) If I have a ramp here id end up with
loads of peeps wanting me to do repairs then go in huff cause I'll tell em to feck off.
Yeah well that makes sense!:)
Yessdi eve my noo son in law was talking about me coming round to see his new set up, he has bought more units (he's a monumental mason who does shed loads of huge stuff, currently doing £40k wuff for a family of Gy**s who lost a lot of peeps after a car accident the night of the Fury boxing match.) He is into Yanks and has a Corvette and a T-Bird but he don't work on them himself. I wonder if I might be able to persuade him to go halves on a ramp if he has the space. Or even just let me put one up that he could use if he needs. Doubt it tbh.:(

Very interesting. Have never dreamed of betting online. Can see how it would work. but a bit of a faff. As you say the house always wins and if they suspect you of counting cards or whatever you get the elbow. Worst is the American roulette wheel with double zero. Greedy barstewards!
The wife and I sometimes have a flutter on the Euromillions if the rollover is high. Silly really even a "normal" first divvy on it would sort us out for life!:)
