Does anyone make decent profits from placepots\quadpots??

The rancid bald coont makes plenty i imagine

It's a fun bet

It has become a bloody frustrating bet and I have reduced the amount I do by about 80% though no doubt Goodwood and Galway will draw me back in

there's nothing fun about having a bet and then somebody taking nearly 30% off you before it even starts

Years ago it was possible but with the advent of betting exchanges things changed much more information can be sourced.bringing everybody up to speed with the latest betting on every run of the mill race hours before racing.early morning gambles can be noted and taken into account Nowdays you being doing well over a period of time to break level.

Aint nobody and I mean Nobody making a profit on placepots.Take it from me who has been doing placepots for 30 Years it is not Doable....Its a Fun bet and anybody that says otherwise knows nothing.

I have had numerous pps up that paid anything from 2 to 20 thousand through doing perms for tiny amounts sometimes perming up to 2500 units  and over a year I usually made a small profit however the last 5 years or so I have found it impossible to make a profit on them either due to bad selections by me or people doing them just being more clued up so I generally look to the bigger meetings and reduce my stakes and units.

Deffo. Over the years, the Tote made millions and now its the turn of Betfred.

Placepot at Uttoxeter today was very skinny, only £14.20.

regarding placepot dividends the 27% deduction is a factor but that is the devil we know.. the much bigger devil is when all the unnamed favs  make the frame and as we all know results in a much reduced dividend .you pays your money you take a chance i suppose its all good fun

My ex-husband used to swear by 64 line perm, spotform top 2 rated.

... and ran away with the barmaid with the profit ?

I'd rather not say what happened to him in the end.

Ex-husband usually means divorced - apologies if it was something more serious.

Parts of him were certainly divorced from the rest of his body.

Anyone know how much rain theres been at Ascot ?

No, but I'm glad you changed the subject.

lord.............will take a shedful to change the going.One shower before the last race today.Not sure if any is forecast overnight.Think York more likely to get a load of rain.

100% agreed.

Thanks portman - there was enough rain in South London late afternoon to make me think it might make a difference but it sounds like Ascot missed it ...
