Recently my friend got me into online gambling. Now I occasionally put the odd quid or two into the fruit machine at the pub but this is a whole casino online… you can play poker… blackjack….fruit machines…… everything!… and all for big bucks too.. (if you want).

The casino I play at is BET365.com and was recommended to me by a friend.

Now before i go any further I must say that anyone who goes to a casino (real or otherwise) and is not prepared to loose what they put down is a fool!…

I play once a week and put down £15 and that’s it.

So far in the last 3 weeks I’ve put down £45 and my total winnings that are in my bank account equal £392.

This is because i set myself a “Win limit”… so I don’t go on playing forever and end up loosing it all.

Remember folks .. all in moderation… and if you’ve got the constitution to not get addicted (ie. you have willpower) then good luck!!

Two bits of bad news so far this NFL season. First being that Sky in their infinate wisdom (not) decided that they would not include the Kansas City Vs New England match in their 3 game screening… the other being that Tom Brady got his knee owned and is out for the whole season.

This means Matt Cassel will be taking point for New England’s offensive. I think he’ll do well too… he got top passer in the Kansas match so that’s a start.

Go Pats!!

I was recently searching for a new TV show to tide me over til Prison Break and Supernatural’s new seasons can out and I was recommended the show Alias.

The show centres around a CIA spy called Sydney Bristow and her father Jack. They work as double agents within a criminal organisation called SD-6 that poses as the CIA duping it’s workers into thinking they are working for the government. It later focuses more on a mystical prophecy.

It’s written and produced by JJ Abrams, the same guy who came up with Lost so you get the usual cliff hangers and non liner plots although it does work very well.

Sydney Bristow’s character is good, although the character that steals the show in my opinion is her father Jack. His charater is very hard nosed, and through past betrayal and other personal motives comes across as an aging spy who is very sharp and knows how to get the job done. He’s even more of an interesting character because he doesn’t look like a typical ruthless figure you’d expect.

I’m now into season 4 and it seems that the show was reinvented to fit a similar format that served the first season well.

Now that Prison Break has started i guess I’ll be juggling 2 series.
