Big...for me! I bailed on Tuesday and Cashed In when I saw Tiffany start to drift and I weighed up the popularity of the other three, especially Scotty and the GS track record on RTV. It was an accumulator bet of sorts, my original £2 bet being on Jay and Aliona..which gave me about £16 to spend on Tiffany in the first week of CBB. I ended up with enough for a night away in a nice hotel with spending money.
I have often fluttered on safe bets in the past and either lost £2 or won a tenner here and there. But, for me, when it starts getting in the 'hundred of pounds' territory, It stopped being fun for me - it has basically taught me that I am a flutterer not a gambler as the idea of losing big is gut-wrenching. So gut wrenching in fact that I couldn't watch the final few episodes of CBB as I was convinced I'd done the wrong thing after I'd bailed. It taught me a lot about myself, oddly. Back to £2 bets here ad there for me.
