Newmarket

Sort of… TBH i only watched when i had to when race about to start…. think they got most of money back last thursday… a dog won🫣 Then they jump up and down hugging… too cringy for me

Sad to hear…. Some great horses mentioned there. Thoughts with family..

Its on FB… Harness Racing Enthusiasts NZ

Thats harsh…. I initially opened Betezy account, which changed over night to Beteasy…. then to Sportsbet… so things change quick in Aus. Only real issue i had was waiting 4-5 days for withdrawing. You also have to remember the reason i opened Aus account about 9 yrs ago…. Because TAB back then offered NZ punters Zilch…. others would say the same… have a nice nite

Nope, never had Betr….

I remember some saying they didnt get paid, but i also know some that opened up accounts under other family members names from same address….i know a couple that did🤣🤣, so no they didnt get paid

It seems raising money has never been hard for Tripp….. how he turned around Sportsbet and others obviously impressed investors. When Betr started, think he offered new account holders to punt horses on Melbourne Cup at $100 to 1, from memory max bet $10. Crazy really, but certainly got new punters on board, was up for $50m if fav won… luckily it didnt. I suppose like everyone, we are all asking what would happen if Entain did exit NZ….I have no idea how it would pan out. I suppose NZ asked for it… giving full control of TAB to Entain.

WTF…. it was on FB, how the hell have i posted FAKE NEWS…. your starting to sound like Trump!! Anyway… i have made a few enquiries across the ditch… its certainly real, Matt Trip seems to get what he wants. Instead of your copy & paste stuff again…. maybe offer your views on how this will affect NZs TAB & Betcha if a merger did happen, previously in Australia these takeover’s and merger’s happen quick.

NZ TAB should have teamed up with Matt Tripp rather than Entain…. The guy knows the Australian & NZ gambling environment….i can see the deal getting done…. Would be funny if i am back punting with Sportsbet soon 🤣🤣🤣

Here ya go Chief….

Anyone watching this tonight…. would love to hear others views….

Yeah.. but i suppose we dont know how much turnover increased for Entain with Aus racing & sports in that period….

Oh dear….. Thats been a painful watch tonight…. I had to mute. Think BP was a little embarrassed by it all, other 2 seemed at home in the goon show.

Hey Chief…. how come you have not mentioned anything about Entains upcoming Austrac hearing…. 640 pages and not good reading. There is a common theme with Entain, they go hard out offering promos and deposit match deals, then turn them off. That is the reason they are now struggling in Aus, NZ will follow suit. No way will Entain be able to have NZ punters betting on Aus dog racing, it will not happen, more money gone…. So while your jumping up and down creaming your Y front jocks….and if Entain NZ do get 12% growth for the next year, its a far cry from what they expected to recoup stopping NZ punters offloading overseas

But to offset that…. NBA has just finished, that sport in NZ is the highest sport for betting turnover….

Changing the subject a bit…. TAB staff? When Entain took over they stated staff would be retained for a couple years…. must be getting close to the carnage, heard anything?

Why didnt you post it

GBR down??? Come on, Entain has had no competition from overseas bookies now for over 2 months…. they should be creaming it 🫣

Not about putting on big boy pants….. im not a compulsive gambler, can take it or leave it. Incentives are everywhere, just not gambling,

Fair enough Chief, looks a pretty disappointing result for mine, especially as a couple of months no overseas punting is available for NZ punters, coupled with the excessive promos and deposit match offers…. not surprisingly the deposit match offers have dried up from both, no doubt once figures are out…. in 12 months time its gonna look bad. Worth noting that Entain did all out blitz in Aus too, a mate was bombarded with offers etc…. once a year or so has passed…. down the figures go…. smoke n mirrors

Thanks for the bakery story, especially like that you mentioned the M2 Escort, brings back memories. But really, the TAB & Betcha is still selling the same cream buns, set up different accounts and while Betcha was specifically set up for younger sports punters, they offer me far more racing offers than TAB. So Betcha was the Ace card, so many offers to punters, deposit match etc…. so whats gonna happen in another 12 months?

No need to keep being a rude prick…. once again your missing the obvious. I know NZ TAB & Betcha are run by Entain, i get that. But how can they come up with that figure that is up 12%. Ok, so its easy to sort TAB figures on previous 12 months, but Betcha only started around this time last year, so what figure used there? Hopefully somebody can post nicely, ta

Ok, so Tab & Betcha figures only. False accounting really, Betcha only in NZ for a year, so of course there would be an increase. Wow, its gonna look bad in another 12 months.

On what product was Entain up 18% in NZ the last 12 months?

So hang on…. lets get the facts on this. Betcha has only been going in NZ for about 1 yr, so before that figure was zero? Retail??? Betcha all online?? Me thinks we are talking about casino gambling here….
