40%
Report henke March 27, 2013 2:50 PM GMT
im on 40% but have managed to get just above it just now and havnt paid it for a while
most of my betting is elsewhere now apart from inrunning horses

can they  move us on to 50% if we keep winning at a rate they dont like or is it set now if you are on 40 50 60 you stay there untill they dream something else up ?

IF ruk has speeded up by a second by losing its sound i vote in favour of muting the programme!!!

sound was only muted on SD boxes was ok on HD boxes
Report gerard March 27, 2013 3:41 PM GMT
A theory.......the long discussed HD switchover has happened and this screwed up the sound in non HD boxes. Due to the new super duper fibre optics they mentioned, the pics have also speeded up (hooray), but when they actually come to transmit in HD they will slow down again, possibly much slower than before (boo). All educated guesswork, of course....

I think the more that know that
a). It has speeded up and therefore hold them to the speed increase
b). See it as an incentive

the better

they might have 2 channels

one for HD

r cing , that was my point. If the HD pics are slower than normal pics not many people will buy them.

Are there any examples of channels not having 2 separate iterations for SD and HD?
I cant think of any.
(who cares about HD anyway ffs?)
Report rcing March 31, 2013 3:56 PM BST
if HD are the same price , i would imagine pubs , clubs and alot of home users will want HD .

only in-running players will want SD
Report dustybin March 31, 2013 4:00 PM BST
but surely they know their product....its a betting channel
they'd be fools to jeopodise speed for such frippery.
I can see why channels go HD, but you dont bet much on eastenders IR do you?

If they have 2 channels then we all win, if they compromise then they have truly funked up
Report starfish and coffee March 31, 2013 4:07 PM BST
They wouldn't just go HD anyway. Still far too many people without HD tv's which would be bad for business hence why Sky sports etc all still have the option of both sd + hd
Report starfish and coffee March 31, 2013 4:11 PM BST
Live video faster than SIS, RUK same as Turf tv.  No reason to leave the house and play inrunning now.
This can only be good news for liquidity. Even the track players should be happy. Good news for everyone.

All this should be good news for decent racereaders on and off course but turnover levels dont seem to have increased on the RUK tracks since
it has speeded up.

How can the message get out there?
Report andyl April 22, 2013 12:19 AM BST
agreed but the fact liquidity has not increased noticeably implies the in running game is predominantly made up of people who play live or turf not home players ......liquidity appears to be at an all time low and we all know why that is!!!
Report MullahOmar April 22, 2013 12:22 AM BST
Representations to BF need to be made by the big PC payers? Or have they.

It is obviously in all there interests to increase liquidity whilst having a fair `tax' system on the huge winners?
Report andyl April 22, 2013 12:29 AM BST
what makes you think betfair care??? there are umpteen threads on the general betting forum in recent months from full timers etc all pointing out betfairs arrogance, lack of customer service ethos culture etc...betfair wouldn't even know there was a liquidity problem its management are oblivious to change or critcism
Report harold_lloyd April 22, 2013 9:22 AM BST
andy , RUK hasn't even had 1 month of speeds being quicker . it's not a very long time so I don't think you can expect liquidity to improve in such a short time . that and the fact that betfiar are not promoting it at all

BF have no "ears",merely mouths that say,"we want more,we want more".
They will eventually end up with 100% of FA.
