@Patch I completely agree with your views and I did stress at the beginning that this post could be deleted at anytime if inappropriate, furthermore, the reason for this article had been intended for those to decide from my personal experience that gambling can be viewed as a risk with comparison to the profit/loss I am going through.
To confirm, currently I am creating a document so those which do matchbetting can hopefully see the advantage of MB as opposed to gambling, however, as
@Jon mentioned, as an adult i have acknowledge my decision and take full responsibility for my actions should I lose a heavy sum moreover I stress that if those who also follow suit and can be easily led into gambling addiction, then please this is not for you.
Of course had made some losses but that was due to distraction and in the case of Smarkets, not planning ahead, however in light of things and keeping a level head, I have seen some positive gain.
