Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
Pointsbet earned $121 million or so last year, if you believe what they say. In the same year the company spent $237 million on marketing expenses. WTF? How could that be? What are they actually paying Shaq to front their stupid ads? This outfit lost $246 million last year. It has never turned a profit, […]
First Kevin Seymour, now Dean Shannon (an old St Paul’s boy from Redcliffe may I add). Tabcorp cannot resist the might of Queenslanders. Especially ones that employ up to 1000 or more locals.

One of one readers wrote in this morning after seeing our story about Matt Tripp and Texbet. This reader is what some would call a severe problem gambler. He bets up large, but when he cops a severe hammering he often falls into a self loathing depression and rings up the bookie who has taken […]

Gambler was a self-excluded customer of CrownBet, BetEasy’s predecessor. His self excluded status was known to BetEasy and BetEasy’s affiliates John Dow and Jamie Myers. […]
What you see above is on-course Townsville bookmaker Dalan Tamblyn’s market for the Cleveland Bay, the feature race at the Townsville meeting last Saturday week. Tamblyn is betting at 139.7%. You’d be better off playing lotto. Dio Dior is a $23 shot. He is betting $3.80. Almost every horse in the field is priced at […]
