Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
Did you hear the one about the bookies clerk at Saturday’s Muster Cup meeting in Gympie, QLD on the weekend who got caught out by the oldest sharp punter’s trick in the book? “$230 to $20 on the six”, the handsome six foot six tall punter who approached shouted as he handed over his lobster. […]
The last time I saw the bloke in the picture working a stand at Gympie was in the late 1970’s. Here we are almost 50 years later at the Muster Cup and he is still at it. The only thing different are the wrinkles and the colour of the hair. And the fact that he […]
Well sportsfans, it seems that poor old Billy Moore is deathly afraid of sharks, which is probably why he never played for Cronulla. What the hell is wrong with the so-called Origin hard man though? My old mate Bunger Johnson, who trained Flashing Red to win a million Group 1’s, is about 103 years old […]
What former Canberra A-Grade footballer Luke Bateman told the Senate inquiry into gambling earlier this week is 100 percent true, and I can swear to it. How do I know? Because I was there at the party on the Gold Coast canal snorting coke with them! 100% true. My mate The Eagle – who is […]

Everyone’s favorite multiple entity corporate bookmakers Colby Paulding and Noah Rose, they of the Amused Group – whose brands include Bet Deluxe, Bet Nation, Mighty Bet, Pulse Bet, Big Bet, Surge, Noisy, Yes Bet and Bet Express – have copped a caning from the NT Wagering Commission over Bet Nation’s dealings with a problem gambler.

Mintsports has learned a lesson the hard way about the importance of corporate bookmakers taking great care in drafting their terms and conditions of use by punters. The bookie, like most, has a term of use preventing punters from using automated ‘bots’ to place their bets. In their case it reads: “10.4 We reserve our […]
Reports out of the Riverina from yesterday’s Albury meeting are the betting ring was colder than the Mawson research station in Antarctica, and twice as cold again.
