William Hill

how long does it take william hill and ladbrokes to price up irish maidens

Will this mean that the sour faced bints behind the counter will take 100 at 2s without a 10 minute phone call to England H/O now?

cant exactly blame over the counter staff

Not at all, they are following orders.

They are especially sour face inside there though in fairness, and always eating something.

Huge bets !?!

- it's worse they are getting

Rang them for two bets recently,
1, two hundred on a short priced fav, they'd only lay me a ton
2, forty on the outsider in a club gaa game , they'd only lay me a tenner

both lost btw

Tried to get €110 on Tipperary -3 @ 10/11 v Cork weekend before last not long before the throw-in. Only allowed €45!! Then they cut the price to 4/5 before i could get on! (Had to look for that stupid verified by visa password)

They're beyond useless

How can William Hill be expected to price an Irish maiden first?

they're in the bookmaking game are they not? if it's too hard for them, get out.

Is it so hard to work out why a firm that big can't price up before the market settles?

it's their job to price races up. or am i missing something?

Clearly. I think you will find that Wulliam Hill are the slowest to cut horses in Ireland and you can get on with them at say 9/2 when Powers and Boyles will be 7/2 and VCbet 9/4. Check it out for yourself tomorrow. Just because they don't price up at maidens at 6.30am does not mean they know any less about it than the other firms.

ur talking pure sh1te as ever tradefair,hills are last up as they are trying to duck all the early movers and when they do finally go up (usually aronnd lunchtime) and after producing a mish-mish cut and paste of the worst prices on offer they still will cut any horse that anyone else cuts 5 seconds later...i am looking forward to you pointing out any value they have tomoro..

ps,on the rare occasions they offer any value its the norm to be offered £25 tops if your lucky..

And how many winners did you knock them off for before you were restricted to £25?

Amazingly i find myself in agreement with Tradefair,there is no law i know of that compels Hills to price Irish maidens,if there was they would soon be out of business.
I am critical of bookmakers advertising morning prices and then not laying them,i understand why they wont lay but think it would be better not to advertise such prices call them a guide.

Rubbish Wildclown.  So if they price up Irish maidens they will be out of business?  Why are PP and the rest still in business if this is the case?

" knock them off for"? people like tradefair seem to think that backing winners is a criminal act or something ffs..any account ive ever held has been ahead but not for vast amounts.i have one at the minute which has a maximum take out of £15 imposed on it,i would like to think that this is the lowest they can restrict an acc to but you never know!!

The reason they are not out of business is they wont lay the prices,now they may lay you but if they do you should ask yourself why.

Dont really back in Maidens Wildclown.  Had a bad experience with said bookmaker and dont bet with them.

Rang them for a 60 bet on a 2nd fave in an Irish Mdn hurdle at 10/3,
several firms showing 10/3 on oddschecker,
this crowd would only lay me Thirty.

lost as well btw

The hills are alive with the sound of music was the name of a song in a well known musical unfortunately though the WILLIAM HILL bookmaking firm are surely alive solely to the sound of their own bullshit PR machine. Apparently they took a wager of 120k on some race in the UK yesterday. I'd say the bet was in marbles, conkers or sheets of toilet paper because it was hardly money. FFS they would'nt lay me a horse to lose more than 100 yday and was restricted to 7e for a rev forecast. Please either put up or shut up and stop making a total fool of your company.

my problem with all of these firms is I don't know why the bother spouting off about these bets? It must drive the ordinary punter mad who can't get a bet on. I've no doubt they lay the bets they're on about but only to known mugs..why not just shut up and get on with it. Nobody cares anyway
