Brodie Posted July 24, 2020 Posted July 24, 2020 Watched race 4 tonight at Addington, the 2 year old non winners race. What a great and surprising result that the first five home were from the Mark Purdon and Natalie Rasmussen stable! This is a great result for this stable, and maybe this will continue in the future?? The other horses not from this stable finished a long way back from the placegetters, which could be a wee bit ominous, do you think? Quote
Nowornever Posted July 24, 2020 Posted July 24, 2020 Well statistically they were a great chance to finish that way considering they had over half the field in the race so not that surprising based on the math. Quote
mikeynz Posted July 24, 2020 Posted July 24, 2020 No one can deny the All Stars are good but I think a lot of the small punters probably dont bother punting,might be ok for the big punters to pile on some cash. 1 Quote

The NZ TAB dont seem to be taking big bets as such now. $2k at $2 seems to be a big bet, and they even mention $100 and $200 bets at next to nothing Surefire way of losing money if punters are backing the AllStar shorties as they play around quite a bit with who wins, and they are too short anyway. 1 Quote

The other day at addington there were 10 thousand and 5 thousand bets often,I often wonder if they just make it up to sound good Quote
mikeynz Posted July 24, 2020 Posted July 24, 2020 They often go on about problem gambling,would it be fair to say that those who bet 10 or 20 thousand have a problem.i know everybody is different and have different amounts of money but spending thousands is still a lot to risk and even if they win how long before they are restricted.

Apparently someone put $25k on the Allstars runner in the last at $1.22! Yes it won, and whoever it was, knew it would win, This is the problem and always has been with the NZ TAB!!!! How on earth is it allowed and ethical that someone can offload $25k and another punter can get on less than $100????????????????? NZ TAB are a very unethical business, and deserve to get a hiding!!!! 1 Quote

Be a successful punter and we will not let you bet anything worthwhile! We also use the Anti Money Laundering Act so that se have total control over punters! They advertise on Trackside that they are concerned about punters betting habits and yet they allow certain punters on for $25k!!! Others who havent got problems are allowed next to nothing on with them!. Edited July 24, 2020 by Brodie 1 1 Quote

Nowornever Posted July 24, 2020 Posted July 24, 2020 Seems it is lot easier to get on for larger amounts near start time when there is a bit of liquidity in the market. No hope trying to get on at opening for anything more than $100 unless it is a shorty. Quote

No hope trying to get on at opening for anything more than $100 unless it is a shorty. If you are a restricted punter, there is no hope in hell of getting a lot on even close to race start. The fact that you have to identify yourself now is even more restricting obviously. It is blatantly ridiculous when the TAB want to drive turnover up, and het all they are doing is restricting turnover By not accepting bets. The NZ TAB is a monopoly in NZ and it is illegal for anyone to run a book outside of the NZ TAB! Quote
