Over the years this has been flogged more than Django's back.
Perhaps they need a different tact rather than getting a stone faced reply from Independent's or Anti Gambling advocates.They might need to go the, fill the pollies pockets with, mooooore bet's means mooooooore tax for the greedy states. And/Or Big Jimmy Jawbone needs to throw a few fundraisers for the influential suits,bait'em with freebies at some Offshore Resort with a few 'lookers'and then see what happens when vote time comes around. |

He didn't buy BF out for the horse racing side of the business, so will happen at some point. The only real growth he can get out of it is in play, being sports and casino.

Curiously what has fallen under the radar is betting in play on the financial markets (including 20 min interval movement eg FTSE and Dow)

That has been allowed ever since BF came to Oz. Was a nice traders delight for a while but like all things involving monetary accumulation the smarties found ways(as they always do)to rort it. The MM found ways to position their software and hardware to the front of the pipe feed giving them a 3 second advantage over anyone else. Years ago Bloom did a live cross to someone in Barclay's(i think)and some suit in the background behind the anchor had up his normal 6 screens as well as Betfair. Noticed the BF volumes are no longer what they were. |

Yes has been available forever. Just mentioned it because curiously all other in-play internet trading on betfair is outlawed. .....(except the horses). And yes the pools are poor at times ...and the market amazingly volatile...... Still something curiously addictive about watching the allegedly real time graphs: INDEXFTSE:UKXbig The 20 min interval trading can cause some big swings to trade off...... ![]() |
