Sports Betting In Play Wagering! How much getting on?


Recommended Posts

Posted

Is anyone getting good size wagering on sports betting IN PLAY?

I was thinking that the TAB were wanting punters to offload on sports betting but are they accepting reasonable size bets or not?

Genuine question?

The exclusion of Betfair has probably killed off many large, serious punters, they offered a different form of betting that should have been kept on, I think I can still access my Betfair account, last time I tried I could but there was nothing you could wager on, there are some noveltys you can still bet on.

Too true…. Pointless with Betcha & Tab betting Inplay, just when you think the game is turning and you can make some 💰… option suspended and stays closed for ages, crazy. Betfair was good that it never got suspended, unless of course close to end of game. Thing that pisses me off most, some sports they offer betting on, they dont give you all options to bet on, its like a casino covering up 5 numbers on a roulette wheel…

I clearly am wrong that I believed that Entain/TAB were after people sports wagering!

They put over a hundred betting options up for punters to wager in including in play!

You would think that the Bookies would be therefore wanting punters to bet on these options, would you not?

Anyway it doesnt seem that they want punters to wager anything but low amounts, so things are not looking great for NZ punters or racing in this country.

Personally dont think that selling out to Entain will end up being a great decision despite what people think.

Most of the bets are gimmick bets, the ones that multis include,  they do actually have the punters promise for some sports/options but not sure if they take the big 20000 or  50000 head to head bets in tennis, cricket rugby and the likes, Betfair would but only if your bet is matched, that was smart as all betfair took was a commission.

The question is, does anyone know if the Bookies are accepting large sports bets from anyone?

It does appear that they just arent, which is hard to fathom if they want to be making increased profits?

when they announce on Trackside that $1k at 1.40 is worthy of promoting as a Big Bet alert then you would have to question how much they are accepting?
