There are no proper bookmakers on these shores anymore. Its embarassing for a country that pretty much started the industry as it is today.

Still, at least they can slap each other on the back as they launch another great online casino game, whilst the Asian bookies snap up all the action.

The problem here is that firms will hide behind the Palp rule (which is a fair rule in most cases) to cover up a poor line by a compiler. It is virtually impossible to get on a Player Prop line with any book now, as all will take a nominal bet and then move the line faster the Bolt runs a 50yd dash. Nowadays I study the lines and give mates the heads up on the obvious errors. A few backed Jones rush yds with our friends in the sky but have now had to resort to IBAS
