These are the days vital for the 2 or 3 larger trainers in the South, many of the others simply don't get going for a while, this months a bit odd with 5 Saturdays, same as last year, Riccarton raced on 4 but one less this time, could have slotted another in somewhere.

Talking about gambling/company's etc etc, during the night I sometimes leave the radio on for the Soccer from the UK, talk sport I think but it plays through Sports Nation, which was senz but now is owned by Entain/ TAB and on Monday morning it was peppered with adds from gambling establishment, as no one is allowed to advertise gambling in NZ apart from TAB this will more than likely get awkward, while those company's can't operate in NZ in a round about way they are still advertising, I bet it's not long and the feed gets chopped. -
Gamma I never understand people betting in racing futures with no gaurantee of making the field/starting, futures in sports it is a bit clearer but I still haven't worked out if you take a futures bet on a tennis pre tournament bet you get refund if a no show, all other sports futures are straightforward, at present there are heaps of teams in Soccer World Cup, but they will be whistled down over time.

Do sporstbet refund futures bets if horse don't show up.

It's starting to look like Rugby in Auckland is going down the same path Horse Racing is, the power base for our economy as well as our National sport is well and truly in the provinces, , there has always been a divide from Auckland and the rest of NZ, seems its getting bigger.still the majority of people living in NZ still live outside Auckland, very soon the Majority in Auckland will be migrants, and as they dont care about Horse Racing or Rugby Auckland will continue to drift further away from what NZ use to be and should be, maybe it should become a seperate state of its own, oh dear, how sad, never mind.

10% winners, I reckon that's about a 98% exaggeration lol, just watching Addington/A park, most or all the big bets to win go awol, and are over the 5000 limit.
-
Futures markets, you dont get refund if they don't start so why bother anyway. I still haven't been able to find out in Tennis if you take a futures bet if you get refund if players pulls out.

Could easily change this threads name to intercourse or outaluck😀

Me picking the best track of all for the Winter today at Oamaru, shame no more racing there until June, shame fields are a bit light as well.

The real solution to improving air quality is getting heating from electricity, rest of the country is waiting for Auckland to start making their own, once they got that sorted that would leave plenty in places it's produced, maybe they could build a nuclear power plant in the middle of Alexandra Park., then if there was a meltdown it would just be par for the course based on the direction it's going in at present.😁

What are you restricted to in fixed win, place ?

I've never been in a casino, never played the pokies but have played the online casino, I was like a magician for a while, I could make money dissappear in no time, that was on 365, I told them I wanted a break, they closed my account permanently, hated at time but not bothered now, occasionally i play a few slots on one sight Betway, if it runs dry then that's it, only a few bucks involved, most of the time it's their money, but I did like their in play platform but it's gone now, hopefully Betway get a licence to operate in NZ. Gambling can be a incedeous habit sometimes, I run hot and cold, have a burst then nothing for a while, when it comes to the races I only bet win and place, I simply can't be bothered studying form, multiple runners etc etc, my attention span ain't what it was. They go on about large punters, but there are probably only a few who bet large amounts, remember the guy who put 300000 plus on the ABs not to win the world cup, then when they played aussie in final a bet of 400000 was placed before natch same guy more than likely so he did win a small amount but also risked losing a heap had aussie won, probably the sort of punter who probably only bothered once in a while, large punters only bet on select events, fun punters take a lot of bets like every eace but smaller, everyone's different, as long as Entain treat everyone fairly that's all that's important. -

I still believe to maximise potential income/profit from sports then they need to upgrade the in play platform, and maybe they will in time, if so the sooner the better, I have no issues with Entain, I just hope they can up their game, they are a large unit, probably NZ is a very small market for them but as it's the only outlet we have in NZ it's important its up to same standard that others have access too. -
What you get that nice sea breeze blowing off the shit littering the beaches as youv got too many arseholes living there now ? Now come on TAB we agree to disagree on things but when your ready to give up I will let you , no questions asked lol. Certainly a character all right.
-
They've probably been reading these post on BOAY and are trying to help Brodie with his gambling problem, of being shutout sometimes, but does he bet on the win?
-
TABman, you only get shit if you talk shit, when you give up I will give up, maybe 😁

I think you've been sitting in traffic jams a bit too much, might be the heavy air at this time of year, think you've been inhaling a bit too much carbon monoxide, it does effect people sometimes lol. Up the Wahs lol.

I will stress in no way do I dislike Asians in any shape or form, they probably find Auckland a little place as compared to where they come from, maybe in a few years it will be all Asians, so it's not looking good for Auckland Rugby but that remains to be seen.

Considering one lives in a strong dairy area, where our main industry's in a honest field is much smarter than living in the rat race where the smartest shithouse rats survive off the less smart ones, you really are a deluded fuck sometime.

I feel like I'm talking to myself at present but did a bit of Wikipedian, Auckland has 40% of the population, European, 34% Asian, Wellington and Christchurch, around 75% European, so it's not NZedders who are growing the numbers up north but the Asians escaping one congested shithole and creating another here but if you could only get all those Asians to ride bikes like they do back home instead of driving cars, no need to build more roads, just maintain the ones they got.

Old TAB man goes on about Auckland in rugby but Auckland in Rugby is in its poorest state ever, none of the 3 teams in the NPC are going well, Auckland were 11th last year, no good waffling on about the Blues, those sides are composite sides of players from all over, but few could deny that players who go to Christchurch, Crusaders seem to flourish, those going to other franchises in many cases not so.
-
Think you may find thats par for the course in most places these days The only way people communicated these day is through social media/Facebook and the like, the art of conversation is beyond some.

Give it a boot Robbie, and the other song The Canterbury Machine, brilliant compositions, hard to believe those songs came out about the time Kevin Bloody Wilson started out his musical career, Kev though unlike Rugby can still sell out a concert and Rugby is mostly played in front of modest crowds mostly. Ken Anderson, great caller but if I'm correct not so popular away from the microphone, somewhere Rugby lost it's place among the pshyche of many New Zealanders, or maybe that's because many New Zealanders now are from foreign origins and like Horse Racing in Auckland just not interested.

Heaps of casinos online now.

More than likely it would have changed later as the game went on.
