hi bb,i'm going to have to love you & leave you as betfairs thievery has gone beyond a joke,instead of stealing 20% of my gambling winnings they now want 50%,big players might be able to put up with that or bot users,but a manual normal joe can't afford to give them 1/2 my winnings,gl team.

Sorry to lose you book , but totally agree with your stance. Its been a good while since i have bet with them myself.

The guys that are coining it in on here are the mathematicians with their programs , that`s the guys they are after but in doing so are pissing of others.

These mathematicians are analysing hundreds of thousands of results over many years and setting up their algorithims to take advantage if certain criteria are met ,some are making over a million on here.

Since I haven't got up to any giddy punting heights yet I'd be grateful if book or someone could explain how BF can end up taking so much from an ordinary joe. I thought you paid less commission as you won more, which was certainly the case back in the day when I was punting in the thousands on here ... Yours, Concerned of London

Reged my old pal
it works like this  the more you win and the bigger bets you have the more you pay
the 10  20  50 pounds  punters would not be affected
Maybe thats what they want who knose..

hi lads,i'm only a small trader who looks to win £100 + a day,not fortunes,as i said pretty ordinary,but because of my consistency im being labelled with the same brush as a big player who makes £1000's a week using a bot or some other gizmo which i dont & i have to put the hours in,it infuriates me how unfair betfair have become,not sure what other site to go to,looking into it,any advice welcomed,cheers guys.

hey book, why not stay with us until you find another way to play.... just a bit of fun and it would be a shame to lose you after so many years..

There is a Pin, me thinks, that is ready for shining?

cheers grape,but feel so let down by betfairs extortionate rates that i would rather have nothing to do with them then give them 1/2 my winnings,how can they justify charging around £300 a week just for using their website and having an opinion the same way everyone else does.absolute joke company,imagine 2 people go in a bookies back the same horse for the same money,yet 1 gets paid in full & the other only gets 1/2 what he should have one,that says it all in a nutshell,gl.

But book, I don't understand how they can take half your winnings? That's extortion!
By:
book
When: 16 Sep 12 21:11
cos if you win consistantly they have a pc charge of 40-60 %,which is unbelievable & i can't believe someone hasnt pounced on this & made a big deal of it but no one from the media seems to mention this extortion that is happening on betfair,only losers welcome.

gl Ra

welcome to the pins China Castle, as for selections we dont tend to have an overall strategy, we leave it to everyone to tip up what they think is best both for them and for the team in regard to how the team is doing, we tend to stay away from anything too short as it isnt rewarded by the points structure really
