It is just a joke the TV channels are taken for mugs for free advertising over these prices. Yesterday they were advising they were going to stand 12/1. I checked late last night on-line and it wasn't available. Early shopping today to visit the shop in town and at 9:10am the price was 10/1 and now it is 9/1 !!

yep. disgusting indeed. 12/1 was available at 8.15 till 8.30 along with rare bob at 50/1 but only in the few shops that open at 8am. completely out of order. luckily they didnt have restrictions on their 'easy slips' so could put on as much as liked up to 50 per slip.

See Mr Dennis also has the bookmakers arb goggles on.So in their paranoid inbred little world,any punter who realises that 12s is a good price and gets his 50 max on.Is only backing it so he can rush home and arb it back on here.He was not asking for 10k just a reasonable 100,which considering all the free advertising channel 4 are giving them and the very few who will ask for the bet is not a lot to ask.No Barry arbing every bet back on here is what HILLS and the other big bookmakers do with virtually every bet not punters.
Was 10.5 on here at 8am so 50 at 12s wins 600 lay it back on here for at 10.5 for 60 for a liability of 570.So if it wins you win 30 and if it loses after commission you win about 9-50.Is it worth the drive and all the hassle to the average punter.No it just a PR stunt which as usual their partners in the racing media are happy to push because they know there is payback,they are the only ones who will be getting grand plus bets on. |

Who has opened a new can of idiots and let this one out ?????? In all the years of being on here and reading this forum , this has to go down as one of the most ridiculous statements EVER !!!!!!! |

Highbury you should not comment on things you know nothing about.It is well known and even the bookmakers on here accept that bookmakers are the biggest players laying bets on here.Laying back bets on here is now a big part of bookmakers business...just ask Barry.

Oh dear , it gets worse. This is the new "most ridiculous statement ever". If only you knew !!! I'd lose you within 30 seconds and you'd probably give up gambling when you knew how stupid you sound. You say it because you want to believe it. Please dont reply , i'm really annoyed with myself for replying to such idiotic comments. The End !!!!!! |

Poor old Highbury comes on...shown to be a big mouth no nothing...then plays the i know everything and your comments are so beneath contempt i am now going to run away trick.
Highbury if you have arguments or evidence that bookmakers are not major layers on here.Rather than flouncing off in a silly huff,lets hear them.Then you can prove i am the idiot not you!!!!!!!!! |

toronto44 is spot on IMO.

I think Highbury has a busy day ahead Jason.
He is the first that i know of,that has had the cheek to come on and deny that bookmakers use the exchanges to lay back bets. |

By:
fs their whole business and virtually every pricing decision they make centres on what is happening on the exchanges,quite often someone wanting to back a horse on here for a tenner at 5.9 will result in about 8 firms on oddschecker going 4/1 from 5/1.just shows you how useless the staff the firms employ are that they have so resort to such pointless strategies!

Anyone who doesn't believe that the major bookmakers are active on the exchanges is living in cloud cuckoo land.

Will keep an eye on that one on the sand.Good luck.
Cant get away from Sycronised at the price but now thinking it might have been better to wait and back after 4 or 5 fences to see if he takes to it.Same with Sunnyhill boy if he gets into a rhythm early would fancy strongly. |
