  1. They should draw a couple of punters names out that had a bet… let them have a go on a bonus bet, if it comes in half to punter, half to comp
  2. Oh, dont tell me someones getting stuck into the Tangerine stable… that would peeve off Chief. Funny you mention that, saw Ellis on TV saying how good he was at the sales…. been pretty disappointing that stable lately…. a few other stables going fantastic, so i am glad 💵 getting shared around…. Hopefully this post doesn’t get me on the naughty list again😙
  3. Motukarara is mainly a front runners track nowadays, unless speed duel or similar
  4. Seems Sth Island grass racing tracks are dominated by those up front, regardless how big the tracks are, i remember 30 or 40 years ago, more where winning from further back, especially at the bigger tracks like motukarara & Methven. Whats the reasons? 1, Drivers rating races far better, although looking at times, not setting records each week. 2, Tracks are now set up differently, grass seems a heap longer nowadays, horses seem to struggle to get through, soft or form. 3, Less lead changes, too many relatives and mates dictate races. What other reasons, i used to love grass track racing, but the leaders bias is annoying, one reason i liked the grass was most had a chance, but not anymore.
  5. How do you know if i win or not? Wow, you certainly sucking up to Entain, if anyone puts the boot in. If NZ had more competition, especially with sports betting, punters would have more of a chance winning, or at least losing less. You do understand the basics with that, maybe copy and paste info on odds, i am sure you will find it.
  6. I wouldnt be an elite customer to them, when i first got Betcha account, i used that and TAB about the same, but now i only use Betcha, so i suppose somebody sees me as a customer they can increase my spend, but that wont happen. I bet with a few mates that live in Aus, they shop around and get best odds, never once have i had better odds in NZ.
  7. Nope… not full of shyte. No doubt others will have same account manager , Josh from Christchurch. They are obviously targeting exsisting customers of both TAB & Betcha, expect plenty of giveaways to those that bet less since geo blocking, figures will look terrible by end 2026.
  8. I am still betting with overseas operators…. so thanks for your comments. Only time i use Betcha, is when they get desperate and send me offer, use there bonus bets, then withdraw. As you dont gamble, you wont be aware of the poor odds Entain offer compared to those that have competition overseas…. just get back to your copy & past bro, look forward to reading something i have seen days before ❤️
  9. Thought same…. too many jockeys get bullied out of positions
  10. Entain struggling…. doggies going soon too…. Must be bad, i have been informed i now have a Betcha account manager… giving me matched deposits all the time…. funny thing i get nothing from TAB, not had a bet in account for a few months now. So really, between the 2 NZ accounts, spend less now than before geo blocking 😂😂😂🤣
  11. What happened with this fella… started race calling but not heard him for ages? Any idea?
  12. FFS Thommy, give it a rest. i have noticed whenever you post, it goes very quiet on this site
  13. Totally agree with you…. Had a few days betting after Boxing day mainly on grass track racing….but first time ever i have not had a bet last couple of weeks of Jan. Tab / Betcha offering very few promos now, not had a deposit match from TAB for many months…. so happy to spend my money elsewhere. Gee, once those NZ dogs are gone, Entain will pull out of NZ, hopefully Sportsbet get in NZ instead.
  14. From a NZ Entain point of view, of course they would love to continue to provide betting on Aus dogs…. but for all the reasons it is getting banned in NZ, its quite alright to show Aus racing for purely gambling? Remember Tasmania is phasing out dog racing…and the Victorian government has said it could save $500m if it follows Tasmania in phasing out, estimates the government would save $451m between 2025/2026 and 2035/2036 if it stopped subsidising greyhound racing and closed the industry…. interesting indeed…
  15. Totally agree…. but just watch, the Aus greyhound betting will not go ahead in NZ once racing stops here. Will be pressure on bigtime, and rightly so, one could say that Aus dog racing is run worse than NZ…. In fact, the only 2 dogs really looked after in Aus was Coco and Son Of Coco…Darryl Kerrigan and family even took them on holiday to Bonnie Doon…😁 A great movie… interestingly its been reported that Michael Caton was only paid $3000 for his lead role…. i would have told him ya dreamin….
  16. Will be smaller soon once Dog racing finishes.
  17. Not sure limit now, as Addington dont race much over a mile anymore, but i am pretty sure limit was 10? Is that correct? I too would like to see less runners in racing at certain tracks from a betting view.
  18. Wow…. thats a crazy decision. Unless you have a real sprint horse and luckily get a draw that suits…. for the majority of the field, they will struggle.
  19. But majority of NZ tracks are not designed for mile racing? So America predominantly race over a mile, but they dont have their most prestigious race run over 3200m from a stand?
  20. Whats with all these short distance races lately, apart from 2 x 2400m races the rest are 1700m? I try to avoid betting on low class sprint races…
  21. Wow…. used to be a top class field…. pretty 2nd rate now.
  22. That $8 still in there….not much use if you cant deposit and have a punt is it? Funny, a few weeks back you stated nothing wrong with Entains 2 crappy apps….
  23. This is what app should look like, first time in ages was going to deposit… in the end got aussie mate to place bets, Betcha glitches …. Oh dear
  24. What a joke…
