Is there any mention of Cash betting in the white paper......??

Cash is the only way to avoid detection. Trawl a few shops for the bets you want to keep under their radar. I have NEVER had an online account and never will. Why play into their hands. If you win or show you have a working brain it's bye bye.

May I add to your very good points slickster pulling the readies up means more than pressing a button.

And how will the government justify that you can hand over £500 at the tote racecourse counter but not have the same bet/s online ?

Blow as much as you want on course in cash.

Going down the line with a mitt full of hundreds.

As it used to be I suppose and not a bad day out if you have the time and inclination.

Even Forest Gump would be able to skirt their way under the radar around this bollox.
