What to log
Keep it simple — a single spreadsheet row per session:
- •Date and start time
- •Casino name
- •Games played
- •Deposit amount
- •Cash-out amount
- •Net result (positive or negative)
- •Bonus claimed (yes/no)
- •Notes — anything worth remembering
Why it matters
After 20–30 sessions, patterns emerge. You'll see which casinos pay you fastest, which games you win on, which times of day you tilt, and whether bonuses actually help your bottom line.

Tax records
South African tax law on gambling winnings is nuanced. Keeping clean records means you have proof of your activity if ever questioned.
Honesty is the whole point
Log every session — winning and losing. Selective tracking is just lying to yourself.
