who stole his money?
|
|
By:
Also how did you have that much exposure ? Nasty
|
|
By:
perhaps more pertinent would be what happened to the benefactors of the 150k
|

Rodia was this on Betfair and how did you end up 150 in the red?
|
|
By:
rumour that a user known as Koo was the benefactor
|

simon hawair man where u been for all these years...thommo said it had fallen so i followed his call...laid £150 @1000
|
|
By:
i know koo quite well oneya...koo was in same trading shop as me around the time...1st ive heard.
|
|
By:
I know...
But doesn't Betfair limit Exposure of that size? How come you went full bank? also if the horse was still running surely it wasn't trading at 1000/1 even though Thommo is useless Does he know what it cost you? |

By:
get real bond

What? Serious question

What's your problem Chavman

By:
you can change your exposure limit to what you want...i had 250,000 in account and was laying for £150 @1000...it went 1000 cos he said it had fallen so everything got wiped out momentarily..he no doubt was informed it some stage of the implications...i dont blame him..colours were similar...my fault for taking notice.

By:
maybe he should ask for a refund
|
|
By:
Rodia repect
how the hell you came back from that? and when you saw the horse was still running you stomach must of dropped so then it went onto win, did it win easily? |
|
By:
£150,000

bond i had started to go to thornaby trading shop in april 07 cos i'd lost the raw feed at home...i'd won 180k in the 1st 9-10 weeks i'd been in thornaby then lost the 150k so wasnt the end of the world..it was 14/1...was under pressure most of the race then about 4 out it took the lead and soon went 20L clear.

Fairly sure that Koo's 1000 winner - there was £237 put up - was a race in Ireland.
|

By:
It won easy and I think the price was about 9/2
I did something like it myself I set up my computer to lay horses when they were at a price in running my price would be the next price laid What happened was the next price was 100/1 and my bank went in one go agggggggggggggggggg Afterwards I thought to myself what a c*** I should have only left a certain amount in my account at any one time so it could not clean me out Warwick if you read this I would advise you to do the same so you limit any possible loss |
|
By:
there's bad luck then there is that story,
i dunno how you slept that night or week after that i suppose the money won soften the blow but still amazing story |
|
By:
legend has it roida threw himself to the floor in disgust before mumbling something about beating thommo over the head with a radiator
|
|
By:
Did you not back any back when it looked to going on to win?
|
|
By:
hardly think i need advice off anyone
 |
|
By:
LOL Seaside you are talking to a man who's done it all
got the t-shirt and more |
|
By:
I'd of panicked and hit the back button for 100k
|
|
By:
no bond i sort of froze...the ironic thing is that week at 8pm on the fri nite i was 16,000 up on the week...in hindsight i shud have tried to get 16,000 on it in running soon as i realised what i'd done then even if it got beat i'd have been level on the week...its all so easy after the event though
 |
|
By:
then it would of lost
 |
|
By:
yeah true happens so quick and probably wasn't much of a price left at that point
|
|
By:
aye prob...
|
|
By:
it was still 12/1 for ages cos the recipient of my 1000 was trying to lay it.
|
|
By:
Imagine being on the other side the backer of your bet
wonder what they did with the money, probably pumped it all back in my now anyway |
