    No. Do you and Guerin? Was hoping you’d identify the gambling harm rules not try and sell me on a conference. This is the kind of thing you’d expect from a guy that’s been doing accounts for 17 years. No growth strategies just getting excuses ready for when results aren’t where you hoped they’d be.

    Betfair make lots of contact if you’re spending a lot of time online. Guy rung me once to discuss how many hours spent and asking if I wanted to set a deposit limit. Told him hadn’t made a deposit for years. I think the monthly statements should be done by Entain but they won’t unless forced to. See Winston right pay some more bribe money and they don’t have to worry about it.

    So Vouris has been a wage slave for a number of years. Any achievements or just this LinkedIn chronology to point to? Might be impressed if he started his own gambling company but just turning up to do accounts for 17 years. Not so much. Where can I look up these gambling harm rules? Can you post a link?
  4. Shab
    I suggest you are wrong. Being ceo of a gambling company doesn’t mean you know much. Look at old John Allen. What constraints of the gambling harm rules, haven’t you watched out the gate?

    Top of the class curious. They have to think they can win. More than 99% can’t but they have to see it as possible. Cheapest and most effective marketing available to Vouris but he doesn’t understand it.

    What a load of tripe. A little yellow star on the screen of a machine is segment marketing and that’s going to make the tab great again. Stuff the segment marketing you’ve got to get people punting.

    I saw one Cox Plate day, you think you say one cup week, PLF saw one yesterday. If that’s constant enough for you Vouris and Guerin that’s great.

    You can’t make a living out of them unless you can live on less than $200 a week and sometimes they’ll cut you before that. Helps if you have a big family but it’s very hard work. To be fair it was the same before the monopoly but that’s one of the reasons we went offshore. What’s the point of bringing in a monopoly to get back punters you don’t want

    Thanks. I’ll keep an eye out for these yellow stars. Would be good to get some petrol money back for having to go down to the tab.

    Wow how generous but at least it’s there. Were you using a terminal? Any maximum bet size?
  11. Shab
    And now they got new equipment but still no promotions. Absolute joke this Entain with a ceo that doesn’t even know what the outfit is or isn’t doing
  12. Shab
    The ones Vouris talks about at around the seven minute mark that Guerin pretends he doesn’t know about.
  13. Shab
    How do we find out what retail promotions are on? I haven’t seen any since Cox Plate day.
  14. Shab
    Wouldn’t be able to bring in any tax on racing or sports until the end of the partnership.

    Why don’t they offer better odds in NZ when they pay less in taxes here? Same odds in NZ as Oz. You trying to get them to sponsor the site with all this? Probably a good idea.
  16. Shab
    Like the conscience bookies and governments have.
  17. Shab
    And prediction markets.

    You ain’t going to catch the 50k punter with your legislative net are you. If you’ve got 50k to bet with you’re going to work out a way around it and you ain’t going to be interested in their discount odds.

    There's a whole bunch of punters having their first ever bet on Melbourne Cup because they're 18 and couldn't have a bet the year before cos not old enough. Not because Entain have won them over or any other reason he wants you to believe.
  20. Shab
    Retail growth he talks about be the punters they’ve restricted going betting on machines cos they can’t get bet on their accounts.
  21. Shab
    He’ll get better the more he does it. He’ll have a useful skill when Entain complete killing off racing in NZ and he can move into another industry with those skills if he doesn’t want to go overseas.
  22. Shab
    Thanks for the Te Akau link. Must be useless at finding things cos can’t find Wexford on YouTube. If you could put that up, that be grand. Not old enough for facebook yet.
  23. Shab
    Any NZ trainers put anything on YouTube? Waller and Baker do in Oz every week. Can be interesting. Be more useful reading tea leaves than reading the stuff Te Akau and Wexford send out.
  24. Shab
    Good for them. Still a useless time wasting gimmick you won’t make any profit from.
  25. Shab
    Totally useless gimmick to keep punters betting. No edge if it’s available to everyone. Maybe if you bet against what horses it leads you into it’d be OK. Hopefully they get some expert analyst to spruik some runners from it and we can lay them for a profit. Oh no I forgot we can’t do that anymore.
