Wouldnt it be a good idea if all customers who had there bet365 closed or restricted to pennies turned upto Sandown tomorrow with a red card. Written on these cards bet365 close winning accounts and will decline bets of a few pounds. And then show them in the winners enclosure when the winning horses come in. Would deserve the bookies right.
Why the continued debate anyway........the simple fact is that bookmakers are NOT bookmakers in the original sense.
Accountants pure and simple,the vast majority even have the tissue done for them by the exchange.Their shops are no more than a front for mini casino operations.......no problems with that.....good business.
It is the misuse of the term bookmaker that gets most peoples goat I suspect........Trades Description abuse if ever there was one.

O yes thats right i forgot, it is just you hobby(pre employment related ban)to constantly come on here in support of everything bookmakers do and say and to know every fact and statistic that supports bookmakers arguments.Also it is just a coincidence that the majority of what you post seems to come straight out of the bookmakers PR and disinformation departments.
No Banks i have learnt jn life to look at the evidence rather than take the word of scoundrels.
Toronto44 I wasn't banned. The username is tongue in cheek. You just continue on your merry way spouting nonsense. It is like the Salem witch trials with you. Evidence is irrelevant to you because it is inconvenient.
Unlike you I have a very rewarding career completely unrelated to betting and bookmaking that allows me to invest plenty into my hobby. In the last month or so I have been to Kelso, Aintree, Plumpton, Wincanton, Ffos Las and Warwick. I doubt you have even been to 6 tracks in your lifetime.
Perhaps if you got out and about you would understand a little more about things.

Thats right so why should they be allowed to say the opposite in the media and on here.If they want to operate this way OK but why should they be allowed to get the benefit of trading in an unscrupulous way and at the same time get all the publicity saying they operate in a fair way.
G have followed you and had a nice bet on Hawkins at 48 before this match with Stevenson,looking good so far.Fingers crossed for Higginson

Banks i really do have a rewarding career outside racing and while you have been to the likes of exotic Plumpton and ffos i have been to Laos,Thailand,Turkey,Bulgaria and Spain recently.Back off to Thailand and Laos on Sunday.I find you get a more rounded view of life when you travel to places other than racetracks Banks,mind you i will be going racing on the Thai/Laos border Sat week.

toronto44 I don't wish to get into travel one upmanship as we are talking about the racing and betting world but suffice to say I too have been all over the world and not just on the Gary Glitter trail you appear to favour however I don't see how that is relevant to this discussion.
In fact you bringing overseas travel into this merely confirms my view that you have little experience of racing/betting in UK.

These threads make me laugh, 365 have the game by the b0llox and were the first firm to realise that the best way to make it pay was only to play utter mugs.
The other caught up eventually.
Everyone knows it, good punters get around it- arbers and timewasters keep moaning.

But Banks it was you who started the travel one upmanship,followed by recommending me to get out more in order to understand the world a bit more.Now you dont want to play this game anymore.
As for you sick reference to the Garry Glitter trail.Again you show remarkable ignorance for a man with your education.Gary Glitter was a sick paedophile who abused children in Cambodia not Laos or Thailand.It is typical of people who have led a very narrow and blinkered life to jump on every tired steriotype of countries they know nothing about.Yes paid for sex is available in Thailand in certain areas dedicated to sex tourists ie Pattaya,Patong and small areas in Bangkok.But when you get away from these areas Thais are remarkably conservative and decent.Even more so in Laos but no Banks you go along with your ignorant twisted fantasies about paedophiles.Maybe that saya a lot about you,that it is the first thing that comes into your head when Thailand is mentioned.
My work is about helping people not stealing from and exploiting them as your paymasters do.

Toronto44 yet again your lack of intelligence fails you. To say that it is easy to play you would be an understatement.
To put the record straight I have travelled extensively and have lived in India, Australia, Russia, US and Japan for extensive periods of time. Add to that leisure travel to pretty much all corners of the globe and yes I do feel I have a pretty broad outlook on life.
Your final comment is your usual incorrect mantra. You have no idea how I make a living but suffice to say that the nearest I get to exploiting people is making you look like a fool on here for which I draw no salary.

You are beyond help if you think that everyone with a half decent education is a professional communicator.
You are an angry little man who is frustrated that his pathetic unfounded rants can't be substantiated and therefore resorts to childish accusations to try and get himself out of the hole he continually digs.
You deperately need an exit strategy but can't find one.
It's all a bit sad really.
Anyway it's nice to have been back in action again for a couple of hours. We must catch up again sometime.
Be lucky.

Thanks Banks....keep drinking the fine wine..Me I prefer the Co-op Pino at £5.49 a bottle...
Corbiewood..you are back.Much preferred Banks at least he has allegedly been out of the country.

Not angry Banks and far from frustrated.I lead an interesting and varied life involving lots of travel and friendships and a large family.Maybe not quite as exciting as bookmaker paid for trips to every shi tole track in the country.When i get back i will give you a quick run down of bookmaking(tote, only illegal bookies)at Udon Thani,as we all know exact details of bookmakers operational procedures is a compulsion of yours. As for digging a hole and looking for an exit strategy......i think you are confusing me with yourself Banks.
Very borinG now but OK Corb read from your prepared script and i will make an idiot of you again.So lets go point no1............

Toronto , stop ignoring what I ve said - go back through the thread and address each point I made in a single post this afternoon. You said you would and then never (twice)
As I'm on my phone the ability to copy and paste is more drama than its worth but I'm sure Toronto you ll have the ability to search back a few pages
Let's dispense of the silly games now, just address the points.

If it is any help.........and I havent gone through all the posts.
The "Big" bookies do not play the event or the individual in formulating their lay it or nay it when it comes to taking a bet.
Any sniff of a punter who would be likely to cost them i.e even one that only won a score a week regularly and overall posted a profit.Would be restricted for a period to determine if they were going to be long term losers.
If the slightest doubt arose that they would be long term winners they will be closed down.
THAT IS FACT..........NOT FICTION.nap

Sixteen hours on and still no point from Corbiegoon. Saying many times over that you've made a point does not mean you've made a point. All you've done is make a point about not having a point.
Much like bookmakers' PR - saying the same thing over and over does not make it so.
P.S. - truyin too hard to sound clever actually backfires - at no point could more than one drum being banged be considered "a plethora". HTH.

Twenty years ago bookies never closed or restricted accounts, yet they still made large profits without having Fobts or internet betting, reason why 99.99% of punters are losers, they hasn"t changed to this day. Old style bookies would have loved arbers, punters who like to bet every race on the basis that a horse is shortening, christ they would have been queuing up to take them on, problems is now bookies can win even quicker by promotim=ng casino games and fobts so why even bother with sports betting at all

Good to hear from you Mukdahan.I dont know too much about the eastern border with Laos.I have spent most of the time close to Vientiane and along the Mekong,crossing into Laos across the friendship bridge from Nong Khai.When in Thailand i now spend most of the time in Udon Thani also Krabi or Phuket.Thats right the people are great and it really is annoying that so many people just associate it with prostitution.It really is the land of smiles,although have found Bangkok to be changing for the worst recently.

Im with toronto, Laddies and Boils closed in my case, but only a matter of time with the others bet365 included, they will all close you down for, 1 winning on a regular basis, 2 beating the sp on a regular basis, and probably other criteria such as following TS, or HT etc out of proportion to your general account usage, betting on only horses where it looks like you may have an edge rather than general sports betting or any other reason that looks as if it may cost them. Its restrictive practise imo and they blatantly only want to take bets from losers as they now have other more lucrative income streams, turf accountants turned into bookmakers now operating more like amusement arcades.....

Have not got up to Chiang Mai and Chiang Rai but will take you tip and try to get up there soon.You can fly direct to Chiang Mai fro Udon Thani,so i may give the racing a miss and spend a few days there this time.My favourite place are the islands and beaches off Ao nang and Krabi.
The bookmakers only come on to try to misinform punters and anyone else reading who may expose their dishonesty .The last thing they want is the truth out in the open.To be honest i now bore myself with the same old arguments but if we dont stand up to them,their lies will dominate this forum.

To be honest GT along the northern Mekong is not that exciting other than a few bars(beer lao is better than any Thai beer)and few decent restaurants on stilts.Dont know too much about the rest of the Mekong.

Goodnight toronto,a never ending tragedy that will continue for many years still.The Balkans are just a young pup in respect of ordnance but they are now the holiday destination for the wealthy and cheap flight brigade.
Short memories and Iraq and Libya have it to come if they ever open up to cheap holidays.......doubt they will but you never know.
Look at the Baltic states after all their grief........dragged down to the level of Darlington for a few £s of British unemployment benefit.
