Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
Mr Y punted with Picklebet. God only knows why, but he did. Y was winning on his account, and sometime before Xmas 2024 he won again. On the 11th of December in that year he tried to withdraw $12 500 from his account, the balance of which at the time was $12 615.26. Picklebet wouldn’t […]
Mr L – let’s call him Lala for the sake of simplicity – was a punter who bet with bookmaker.com, which reveals that he is an idiot from the start, given that it was an Entain branded corporate that had all but been abandoned at the time that he was punting, and probably only stayed […]
Story by guest columnist Digger Dave Everyone keeps banging on about offshore betting like it’s some foreign invasion. “Offshore is killing racing.” “Offshore is stealing turnover.” “Offshore this, offshore that.” But around Victoria, punters reckon that story’s about as accurate as blaming a hangover on the ice in your drink.

Why would Sportsbet bother putting up a Melbourne Cup market 9 months in advance if they are going to set it like this? Half Yours won the Cup last year with 53kg, but is likely to get 4kg more this year, and weight stops trains. Al Riffa didn’t get the two miles with 59kg, and […]

Gee I wonder who is helping kick in to fund the racing website Betsy? It wouldn’t be the bookmaker Ponybet would it? Oh no, never. Not that Betsy are telling us anyway. Yeah good. Rollercoaster ride: Faves fall in big Saturday for Ponybet, but it wasn’t all smooth sailing
Everyone’s favorite former Brisbane and FNQ rails bookmaker Haydn ‘Horrie’ Flynn turns 40 today. I am sure you will all join me in wishing Horrie a very, very happy birthday. May the sun shine on him always, and the winners fall like rain.
See the advertisements above and below that popped up on my Facebook feed today? These ads are illegal in every State of Australia. Offenders can be prosecuted. They should be too, for these are absolutely deliberate breaches of the law. Note that neither advertisement offering the inducements for punter to open an account has a […]
We tipped you off a fortnight ago about this. The reporters from the mainstream media who get their information from corporate press releases have finally caught up. What a terrible time it is to lose your job just a few weeks out from Xmas. Our sympathies go out to the affected Entain employees. Ladbrokes, Neds […]
