Question being asked BOAY punters!

[Brodie]

How many punters are  getting a lot less $ on at agencies and PUB TAB’s on FIXED ODDS than they were?

Personally know how damn frustrating it is when the Bookies only allow not large amounts on,  then slash the odds several times, making it look like all this money has come for a horse.

It actually beggars belief that they are the only legal betting agency in NZ for horse racing, and yet they are not willing to take the punters on for any reasonable amount!!!

Question needs to be asked why they are not prepared to have the Punters Promise limits for all bets and just not WIN BETS fixed odds?

TAB/ ENTAIN are not trying to increase turnover on harness racing, and yet the CEO Brad Steele of HRNZ says nothing???

is this one of the reasons Dean Shannon was moved on from ENTAIN as he did not agree with what they were doing to harness racing in NZ?

Personally don’t think they have got many that actually have business sense and the ones that have, have been moved on as they didnt like how Entain was operating!

Is anyone allowed by the TAB Bookies to wager reasonable amounts????

Increasing Turnover on Fixed Odds is not the answer.  Increasing margin and profit is.  What you are asking is for ENTAIN to increase Turnover by taking bigger bets at better odds but at the sure risk of losing money.  How does Harness Racing win then?

In most jurisdictions that I know of it is legislated.  Very few agencies if any will not have some limits.  Bookies are not in the game to go broke.

Chief, personally think the way they are operating their business is poor!

They must be haemorrhaging big time losing potential income by their restrictions and odds slashing.

At the end of the day the odds are always in their favour so why dont they operate that way?
