The people you  appear to like calling the entain nah sayers,are the ones who have consistently said entains going to focus on increasing their profits from sports betting and to do that, obviously it should go without saying ,they would have to grow the revenue.

so what you posted really does nothing whatsoever to discredit anything anyone has said about entains intentions or performance. In fact the contary is more applicable..

also,whats the breakdown % for sports and racing. And when it comes to harness racing,they have held many more meetinghs. Thats an obvious factor if their % went up..

and another obvious factor.

We know betting agencies  revenue is impacted negatively or positively,depending on whether favorites are winning any sporting contest. Just as their racing revenue can be effected by the same thing.i.e. more favorites winning or losing in say the nba ,nrl.anything with an n in it,means more or less revenue.

And of course it depends what happened the year before,when you compare a  year with the previous.

anyways, i think it really would  need further analysis as to the actual impact on nz harness racing,which is what we comment on when it comes to entain.

At least revenue is on the up not down as many of you downers have been saying.

If Harness is down on revenue then who whose fault is that?  Not ENTAIN'S.

PLUS there is another $100m in the pot due to the legislation passing.  Now you should direct your attention to happens to that lump sum.  Stakes or invest?

About to happen .

The European Football season is about to kick off and generates them Hundreds of millions. Even kiwis will be betting on it from the other side of the planet.

300 of the 440 Top flight teams are partnered with a Betting company for sponsorship already.

145 Teams with a Gambling LOGO on the front of their shirts. that the Betting companies pay Tens of millions for. 

14 of the 41 Top Soccer Leagues in Europe rely on a betting sponsor for the Championship Title 

In the English EPL Premier League 11 of the Clubs have a Betting Company LOGO next to their famous club symbols on the front of their shirts. and ALL 20 clubs have a Betting Brand Partner.

World giant Club Liverpool are partnered to LADBROKES . the sponsor of QLD harness lol. (an Entain Company) 

The money they make , with the whole world interested is just staggering. The revenue is a pyramid of money. 

From Next Weekend these Betting Companies WIll Be Smiling like the Irish , raking in unbelievable money amounts

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.

I have Sportsbet where if you're betting while a match is In-play , you have to Ring in to the Bookie phone centre. 

This makes sense , as otherwise people would be going over the top in a short space of time if thinking they are on a winner. Alas Most are on a loser and legislation and limits stop people from 'Losing the House ' while drunk or thinking that large bets are easy or whatever.  trying to win fast. they get themselves blocked real quick. 

One winning scenario was a Pundit had turned his $1500 footy Bet into $3000. so promptly deposited another $2000 and launched into the very next match with a $5000 bet. which won . He collected $7500 . tried to launch a third time but was timed/maxed out and maximum next bet of only $2 was allowed  😂 . 

the system cap didn't stop him from winning $4000 but prevented him from losing it and much more, when people think they're on a Hot Streak and just don't stop.  The double or nothing punters sure to attract a block.

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.

Don't forget that they are already miles ahead of the previous mob that ran the TABNZ into insolvency.

The new retail pods are light years ahead of the old ones.
