Fuel on anti gambling fire

As previously cited, there are clear examples where liquidity could decline as a result of these changes.

Can anyone make a case for where liquidity increases through the Expert Fee because I can't?


IR is house controlled money..last 3f theres only quids in ev box.Absolutely nothing will change this now.

If you ask for £100 at 6/1+ for a fav that's being ridden won't u get matched to more than buttons ?

that's exactly what I'm saying.  Not all IR players know the pedigrees /stamina requirements / ability/temperament of horses.

You can't simply take a year off and think you start on zero , Blunder. They're basing all calculations on the last 52 ACTIVE weeks. Guess they've done that so any winners who left cos of PC will come back based on their old history and not a clean sheet.

It's not easy to figure out your Commission Generated or Commission Generated % of Gross P&L, either for last 12 months or for the last few years. But I reckon a lot of folks who have been on here for a decade or more (and especially those of us who are getting on for 25 years) are going to be surprised how low their numbers are now.

The Premium Charge page (before they took it down) would show your Commission Generated and as % of Gross P&L for the previous week and also lifetime. The lifetime figure was a pretty good guide of your average Commission Generated - that is until they changed the commission structure from variable with most people on 4-5% to 2% (was this around 2018?). It will also still be a pretty good guide if you've only been on BF for 6 years or less.

Now that the lifetime element has gone and everything is assessed on 2% flat rate commission (plus throw in the reduction in implied commission) the effective % of Gross P&L thresholds of 20% and 40% look really high (and maybe virtually irrelevant?).

So the pariahs of the exchange, who were sucking money out of it and were considered to be no better than tax evaders so had to pay Premium Charge, are now suddenly "experts".

its not that simple mark

there were some, and im not talking ricardo, who were vacuuming money out because they had barmy advantages but the volume was such and their number comparatively small that it was partially masked and ignored because people were piling on to the platform thinking they would be i/r experts. almost everyone i met reckoned they were but they soon realised they were not

this was accelerated by the ones with the massive advantage who couldnt believe they were getting away with it but the numbers started to dwindle, understandably

notfair were too slow to act and they should have addressed the problem while there was still enough liquidity and players but they didnt. id have put a big delay on until a solution could be found, whatever that may be. maybe buying the pics. i dunno

the pc was always going to be a calamity, and most of those due to pay it didnt anyway. such was the earning power theyd pay 10% for another account

yes. it was suggested as a stop gap until a viable solution could be engineered. and those sharp minds were still at the helm in them days. too many were killing time until the got their share options

i suspect it could have been done and money wasnt a problem. i wish theyd acted. i dont want an advantage. if everyone was the same a significant number would still be here

youd have ironed it out with tomorrows paper

They were a bit premature removing the link as it's still relevant until the 6th January according to their email.

this is now based on gross profits, PC 40% band was based on net profits

You are falling apart Shafter, even Komrade Howard exposed you about the Shafter account which I previously had long before him.

Give it up you sad sack loser?

Rico, the way i read it if you have £25k gross profit which could theoretically mean little net profit you will be in the 20% net.

Shame the meltdown continues Shafter if you still believe a photo takes two hours and then claiming somebody else took it when you told the forum it takes seconds!!!

rampton or broadmoor.

Are you bringing them on Shafter?

Explain how you get the whole £19 from the Sally Ann to them and it will be the first thing you have ever done worthwhile in your miserable existence!! HTH

ROFL, as genuine as you gas bill YSDC!!!

Buy a bed and use it, if your arse bones are suffering too much send me the bill!! HTH

my warwick hunt acc was closed in 2009..started this one in 2010..PC had already been implemented then so started from scratch so would have went the normal route 0 > 295k before going on 40%.

Dorme tranquilo cagino, ce vediamo doppo!!!
