    • Otaki have use of their track and facilities 365 days a year to earn revenue. 10k a day for 3 of those days doesn't sound too bad and from what I know is in line with what is commonly paid. Maybe a bit less for industry days. Why you would expect Levin to pass on more of the revenue they earn from those meetings is beyond me. I'm surprised you don't expect them to pay Otaki their oncourse turnover commission as well.

    • Well Cup week over for another year, always enjoy catching up with mates not just in Christchurch, but all around NZ as well as some from overseas.  Meeting for breakfast before races one day, the subject of Entains Safer Betting, or Responsible Gambling. Many didnt know much about offerings, so a quick look on the TAB App, and we tick on Responsible Gambling….well it directs you to Entain.com.au, so gives info on South Australian and Northern Territory code of practice for responsible gambling🤣🤣🤣 Can also click on Safer Betting, which is a real cop out, as really they are putting the onus back onto the punter…. how many punters with gambling problems will look at these options, very few i suggest.    Also interesting is this statement….We have a team of dedicated staff well versed in providing advice and assistance. We regularly make contact with customers where we’ve identified there may be some element of risk??? WTF, none of the 20 or so punters that discussed this had ever had the TAB check in with them regarding their loses, and some were pretty big punters, in fact only contact that was ever made by the TAB was regarding account restrictions? Also mentioned by group, it seems most of Aussie operators email customers win/loss statements each month, i know Sportsbet & Betfair did, nothing from Betcha & TAB, in fact worse that that, they have set up Betcha to entice young people to bet, mostly on sport. I feel uneasy about this, youngsters have gambling at their fingertips 24/7, unlike people around my age, early 80s TAB only opened certain days of week, no casinos and no online betting. What are others views on this matter, it seems people are worried about greyhounds getting injured, but is enough getting done helping gamblers online?
