No Commingling

Recommended Posts

The pools aren't commingled, but the girl on the television is promoting betting on Quaddies as a good idea. Telling people to get involved and how they can use the computer to help them make their selections.  At least Michael  Guerin did the correct thing on the other channel and pointed out what it meant for punters and told them not to have any big bets on the tote.

Got a small return on late quaddie at Caulfield. I was better off without the commingling for sure given the dividends in Aus.

What is happening with commingling going forward ?

Col,  no-one knows for sure, but I suspect the new Board appointee got his role solely to resolve this issue as it sure is the elephant in the room - his CV says he will sort it out

It was a one off problem? It's sorted today and can't see that changing in the future, they know how important it is.

A bloke in our pub syndicate put on 8 $50 5% first fours on Sat morning. You can imagine our dismay in the afternoon looking at the pools knowing that even if he got one up the return was going to be less than the bet.

The problem with the comingling came at the Aussie end and NZ wasn't the only one affected. 

With regard to comingling to highlight it's benefit. Without it Chocante only paid $2.70 on the tote here in NZ for his third placing and paid $8.90 in Australia.

Kiwi's were vastly underpaid. 

Place Fixed Odds were $5.00 though.  :)

You got shafted whatever way you bet on the NZ TAB.$8.70 tote and $5.55 fixed the place on tab.com.au

The percentages they had on those first 5 and first 8 finish markets at Hastings were unbelievable.  With the prices they had up on the weekend the turnover must have been tiny and the margins enormous.

Nice  First Call Special though.
