Day's result

−60,000 RON

Net profit for the day

2 bets, 0 won, 2 lost

The night of October 28 into 29. After closing Day 8, with 70,000 RON in the account, I placed two more bets and lost both. I took the remaining 10,000 RON out of the account, and the account is now self-excluded for 30 days. I am back on November 28.

Two bets after Day 8.

Genoa v Juventus: 15,000 RON on Over 2.5 goals, at odds of 1.70. The match ended 2–0, so only two goals: −15,000.00 RON.

Hurkacz v Rune: 45,000 RON on Hubert Hurkacz, at odds of 1.60. Hurkacz took the first set, then Rune turned the match around, and the deciding set went to a tie-break (Hurkacz score: 6–3, 3–6, 6–7): −45,000.00 RON.

In total, −60,000 RON on two bets. Together with Day 8 (+24,918.45 RON), the night closed at −35,081.55 RON.

The break.

There were 10,000 RON left in the account. I took them out. I understood that if I placed one more bet, I would lose those too, and that from here I have to take a break. I self-excluded my account for 30 days and I am back on November 28, with renewed strength.

In short, Day 8.5: −60,000 RON, two lost bets. Total net profit stays at +113,593.19 RON, with 135,813.20 RON withdrawn in total since the start. The account balance is 0 RON.
