mikeynz Posted October 2 Posted October 2 Does anyone know if our Out The Gate experts got their nose in front punting everyone's money for fun, I don't watch it. Quote

If the tipsters were successful then the TAB loses profit. If the tipsters aren't successful and are promoted as "experts" then those viewing come to the conclusion they can't win! 2 Quote

Totally agree… I just dont see who they are targeting, i just cant listen to them, its so cringy watching them tossing coins and throwing darts. They have drivers or trainers tip and a few, which is ok, but when the 3 of them start betting at any meeting, and take those bloody SRM… its crazy. Thank god we have a good trackside team for Friday night harness, think it is brilliant 1 Quote
Brodie Posted October 3 Posted October 3 Reality is that Trackside will get rid of them in the future! None of them show any ability to pick winners and hard to understand who is giving them $ to punt on a Thursday night! Questionable and repugnant that they are able to get any amount of bets on with the TAB and yet other punters are able to get very limited  amounts on!! Just shows how unethical the NZ TAB has become! Long overdue that the TAB starts treating punters equally! 2 Quote

They are able to bet thousands on horses and dogs of other peoples money with very little knowledge and ability! They advertise to bet responsibly and yet these amateurs are doing quite theopposite? Last night they put over $4K on a dog at something like $2.60 and it won picked by Andy Cook! After it won they acted like absolute Dickheads running around the studio! Seriously the show is so cringey and not a great look for racing!! Edited October 3 by Brodie Quote

I don't find it a bad look, I don't look at it and if it's only Cambridge with what it's offering at present I won't be watching it but Thursday twilight meetings start in the South now, maybe I won't watch that either🥸 Quote

If it works for the TAB/Entain and it attracts new punters then more than happy go not be on the money! Only watched it the last 2 Thursdays as was overseas for when it started but didnt miss much if this us what they now offer on a Thursday night. Personally think it is crap and would be very surprised if it continued into 2027 as punters get turned off and punters stop giving them money to blow. I would be surprised if the Friday night presenters were impressed by the Thursday nite Amateur clown night!     Quote

Hypocritical that the NZ TAB continue to advertise to us to BET RESPONSIBLY and yet Trackside employees are allowed to bet totally irresponsibly????? Anyway time will tell if this is what the NZ punter wants. Quote

The thing is it is good that the TAB are trying to attract new punters to their business! They are clearly  trying to attract the younger ones, but personally what It is showing is 3  men with  betting  here there and everywhere and showing that they dont know what they are doing, betting with any responsibility for other peoples money! Are they really wanting punters to be betting like this? Last night they thought it was marvellous that they were in PROFITLAND, they should be in PROFITLAND most weeks as they are allowed on by the TAB to any amount they want, unlike restricted other punters! Yes they made approx. $3k last night on top of the $17k pool they started with, which in effect is approx a 17% profit! Not convinced this format is a winner for racing, but more than happy to not be on the money! 1 Quote

Brodie Posted 12 hours ago Posted 12 hours ago The truth of the matter is that they would not be wagering the way they are with their own money! They have absolute no discipline whatsoever and try to convince us that they know what they are talking about, when none of them actually are that knowledgeable. Quote
