So i couldn't sleep earlier...was bored and searched for an online casino.
Signed up to 888.com and started to play the free rooms...then got bored and entered the live mode. Wanted to only put about $15 in (£8)...it said minimum deposit was $50 (£25.50)...i thought..what the hell, i'll do it. I then noticed i had $100 in my account...i was like WTF!...but it turns out they give $50 to new member sign ups.
So joined a game and was making $3 bets...then $5...ended up going down to $39 in my balance...i thought oh crap, money wasted. Hit the $25 button just to see and i won. From there i went up to $100 again..then kept on bouncing between $150 and $100. Then hit $200! I told a friend and he said quit while you're ahead. I thought...well if i loose on the next hand i'll quit. But i didn't, i now have just won $314 (£158)
So i have made $264 (£133) profit in 30 minutes by not being able to sleep.
COR Version: Couldnt sleep, signed up for blackjack spent $50 but won $314.
I have submitted a request to withdraw All of my winnings.

this is my downfall, and why I will never join any online gambling place, I'm too tempted to carry on a bit too far & will end up losing too much from doing so.
