Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
Between the 16th of January 2020 and the 3rd of February 2020, an unnamed but very real punter who we shall call Con Pulsiff deposited $1.1 million into a betting account that he held with PlayUp, who are in my considered view if not the worst corporate bookie in the world, then a pretty damn […]
One of those rare things happened at the Bunbury Trots yesterday, a triple dead heat. It wasn’t for first place though, it was for fourth. The triple dead heat happened in race 2 when My Ultimate Joe, Nellie Babe and Go Widgie (sounds like a marital romp in the sack using pet names doesn’t) crossed […]
I guess that Star Entertainment have been too busy manufacturing bullshit excuses for their joint venture business partnerships with the Triads and International drug lords to find the time to take their disgraced former CEO and Chief Laundry Man Matt Bekkier’s name down from the company website. They might as well hang on a couple […]
There has been a sensational twist in the US case of PlayUp Inc v Dr Leila Mintas, the one in which the Australian corporate bookmaker Playup – which owns the old Mad Bookie, Top Betta and Classic Bet – is suing it’s former US CEO for a stack. PlayUp reckons Dr Mintas sabotaged a $450 […]
Playup have asserted to the US District Court of Nevada that it’s former CEO Dr Laila Mintas has no right to sue it, and filed a document in the court record that they claims prove it. There is a problem with their claim. The document is a blank copy. It is neither dates nor signed […]
We told you yesterday the story about Melbourne Mick, and how Curly Seal’s bookmaking outfit BetBarn had ripped him off by not refunding his quaddie investment as required under the rules when his anchor leg runner was late scratched. Well it appears Curly or his managers read peterprofit.com, for yesterday morning shortly after publication of […]
See this market? It is Sportsbet’s odds on a race at Redcliffe yesterday. The basics of a bookie’s market is that betting to odds that when totalled together equal 100% is a ‘true’ market reflective of each horse’s nominal percentage chance of winning the race. When a market is framed at odds that add up […]
It is illegal under various State laws for a bookmaker to offer inducements for members of the public to bet. An inducement includes a matched sign-up bonus deposit. Bookies are allowed to give them, but they are not allowed to offer them as bait to get a new customer to join. The above ad showed […]
Merimee winning at Doomben, looking like Bernborough Three and a half weeks ago the Chris Waller trained 3YO filly Merimee beat a good class field in a Saturday metropolitan race at Doomben, and looked liked Bernborough in doing it. Yesterday the now rating 70 filly stepped out again on the polytrack at the Sunshine Coast […]
9 out of every 10 dollars bet on racing or sports is wagered online. Ninety percent of all bets, and rising. The TAB has the worst online offering of any major bookmaker or betting outlet. It’s website is so clunky and and slow that you can only describe it as terrible. It is unwieldly, cluttered […]
