When I was about 18 years of age, I was legally able to step into one of the many betting shops here and pick up a large 'weekend' coupon that listed all the Saturday and Sunday games along with the odds for a home win, away win and draw in each case.
What they do to lure you into placing a bet is suggest something that potentially pays out lots of money, for instance "Four draws - 50/1". Sounds very easy, doesn't it - selecting four games to end in a draw from a list of about sixty, but it's much more difficult than you think!
My friend and I bet on those weekend coupons frequently in our late-teens - only ever betting £1 at a time or something - but we never won anything. Even the supposedly easier bets like "8 Homes - 33/1" we could never win because, of course, you had to find the right result in more matches.
A mugs game, really, but played on an infrequent basis it does no harm and you could, potentially, win a small amount for your trouble.
