Disgusting filth.The machines are no good and certainly not good for the fools that place these games.I hope (but doubt) they will one day be banned .

Double pay has finished at bad blokes they bought all their contracted staff out for a nominal fee... About £1500, but they have to pay it back if they leave within 18 months... lol

All sunday pay is at single time...

Just remenber when you vote, it was the Labour party who introduced these machine to steal from the poor and also allowing them to open day and night.Its not just the poor compulsives who suffer, its also the poor shopworkers who never see their families.But why should Blair and Brown worry, their is plenty of money to be made from big business when they leave politics.

the hypocracy on here is tamount to lunacy.

tornrnrnrofortyfour, as usual your blinkered rage is clouding everything, between the lines your even attempting to blame bookmakers for everything, the political situation and labours leadership inadequacies. Madness.

You forget that your posting on a forum of a company that lead the world in remote platform based gambling, betfair arcade will acount for huge sums and is promoted and marketed in the media at key strategic times ((late at night for the serial/crack gamblers) daytime tv for the bingo heads)) - but this doesnt matter to you as its out of sight and mind.

Maybe if the goverment tax the unlicesend layers and improved legislation for all remote / platform based gambling then you d have to change your silly entrenched view and come out with some new tired lines.

corb being an online casino is a business decision that Betfair had to do to maximise profits for their shareholders.Not good but if you in the gambling business not really much choice.The decision of bookmakers to place highly adictive machines to fleece the poor aided by a corrupt goverment is different.They are deliberately designed to suck the uneducated in,turn them into adicts and destroy their and their families lives.The goverments own recent NHS report said they are turning tens of thousands of people into compulsive gamblers.

corb you are a sick and very sad person.Take a long hard look at yourself.

you have a hard look at yourselfand someone please take those blinkers off this lad!

At certain point iin the day the main console on the betfair home page will have a direct link to some new wonderful game like , bejewelled or pauls pirates or whatever, that takes you directly via a link to the games where you can loose money INSTANTLY via credit cards , moneybookers , paypal, quick quid direct BAC transfer, etc - not to mention tho 'old favs' like rouletee etc.

Couple this with the the strategic marketing of betfair arcade via the media there not much difference, some would argue that this was worse. I agree roullete machines are evil evil things, although i have the same opinion of casinos (virtual or otherwise).

Just read that back, do you realise the irony and the hypocracy in this statement. So if a bookmaker gives someone a KB its eveil, wrong, horrible, etc even tho they are essentially trying to (whatever your viewpoint on the rights or wrongs of it) maximise profits. But when betfair do it - its suddenly ok?
