I'm surprised @Gammalite you didn't pick up in the same report that ENTAIN had set aside $100m as a contingency in the accounts for an AUSTRAC fine and that mediation was still in process. They emphasised that the $100m was just a placeholder and not an indication of where negotiations were at. -

I think if you look at Global (big picture) NZ is still doing ok for the Entain company . Aus is struggling a bit . The economy and housing crisis in Aus is getting worse, and the gambling dollar is waaay less than it used to be . I even heard someone say they were thinking of shifting to NZ the other day ???? never heard that before for donkey years. Like I mentioned somewhere the Europe Football season starts very soon ( and NRL and AFL will be completed next month) which haven't been great betting contests this year at all. So some BIG Bets will start flying about to keep them all Happy. and of course the Spring Racing will begin. A lot of Punters have Winter off these days too. here's some ENTAIN figures I just found > Revenue by destination reported showed that for the six months up until June 30, revenue across Australia and New Zealand had fallen to £257.1 million ($A530 million), down £24.1 million ($A50 million) compared to the same period last year. The other detail to come out of the half-yearly report was that Australian NGR had fallen 7 per cent year-on-year, while New Zealand’s has increased 12 per cent. -
you have to give him points for trying. He seems to be making reasonable observations,even if we know its not a big picture take on things. -
now i've actually posted about it,even if by mistake, i googled it and it was "the gambling man by kevin perkins.apparently he spent 22 years researching it before he completed writing it then another 10 years being sued for defamation before it was made available for publication. lots of stories in their,all supposed to be factual,that people didn't want being published. it was sort of based around bill waterhouse and his gambling dynasty. to quote the promo " it exposes the intrigue,treachory andskullduggery ivolved in the upper echelons of gambling,polished crooks in high places,mind blowing betting duels,the truth behind the fine cotton ring-in scandel and other fascinating stories". ive never been much of a reader myself,but that book would label the best book i have read. And it was all supposed to be true.based on fact. I remember the story about the head of one of australias biggest banks and how that all ended. That was a story and a half in how it ended and how close he came to the possibilty of it never being uncovered.. it was sort of a bit like that aussie series underbelly. Underbelly was about kings cross,the criminal underworld and police corruption during the late 1980's early 1990's. The book the gambling man had all that,bit with so so much more. The gambling man would have made a fantastic tv series. Maybe they didn' make it because they were afraid of all the litigation the the author had to go through.
