To be honest you wouldn't want my picks for any of the KPC heats! 99% of my "serious" punting is on Australian gallops, I very occasionally would have a bet on NZ gallops and am pretty sure I've never had a serious bet on a dog in NZ so next weeks heat on the Cambridge greyhounds would be a lottery for me. The format of the competition (having to bet on specific races and having to bet a set amount every race) would largely negate any advantage "profitable" punters would have so the fact they are rejecting entries of restricted customers is just another example of the very poor understanding of wagering and bookmaking by certain TAB employees.

No. I entered, had my entry accepted, but was contacted shortly before the competition started and advised: "As discussed we have not accepted your registration for the KPC Heat 1. Given the online component of the tournament in 2019 we added a clause (49) in the Terms and Conditions to limit entry to customers who the bookmaking team have marked as restricted. ie Certain fixed odds bets are managed. This will be the same for the remainder of the tournament." The competition slogan should be changed to "Are you New Zealand's best LOSING punter" as winning punters clearly can't enter.

Funnily enough, one of the changes is actually a rule saying any payment made to customers can be reversed (for any reason) without your consent and they can also issue a 'debt notice' to recover the funds if necessary so don't count on keeping that little bit of cash they might give you....

Refresh the page and click on the Watch button again and it resets to the original position (does for me anyway)

Isn't re-logging in just entering your current user name and password on the new website/app - surely it's not going through the whole "new account" process as if that's the case, there's no point in the long shut-down to transfer over customer data?

Yeah obviously the whole system is down during the upgrade, but when it comes live again will all the self service terminals be running new software and operational so we can bet on the new platform using them?

Does anyone know if the self service betting terminals will be integrated and working on Monday with the new platform, or do these all need to be upgraded/replaced?
