  1. They tried Triple Trio about ten years ago and it failed. These jackpot type options just don't work well in the New Zealand market. The way for Entain to skin punters of as much cash as possible is multis with as many legs as possible and preferably Same Race or Same Game multis. Lots of novelty bet options and promotions that you can't take part in if you overdo it and make a little bit of profit. That's the future for Kiwi punters.
  2. First 4's on all races is likely to be a requirement of their commingling agreement.
  3. They use the Code Prize Reserve Pool to top up any shortfall so it comes out of punters pockets. Too many betting options on pari-mutuel pools dilutes pool sizes so it's probably a good idea to get rid of some pools. Pools that tie up a punters money for six races can't be much good to them so it makes sense to get rid of those first.
  4. Just don't take her to WA.
  5. Next you'll be thinking it's a good idea for staff in all the councils proposing massive rates hikes to be accepting pay cuts as well.
  6. Yeah it's interesting how there can be such discrepancies from basically the same provider. Both markets at 127% at present.
  7. NZ TAB currently $1.35. Ladbrokes and Neds $1.50.
  8. Michael Saylor believes it is the future, has invested and made billions out of it. The late Charlie Munger said it was a worthless bubble that would burst and likened it to trading turds. Long term one will be right and one will be wrong. Both of these guys probably know or knew more about investing than anyone on this forum ever will. I've put a very small amount in and going long. An amount so small you I wouldn't care if I never saw the money again. https://www.moneyhub.co.nz/how-to-buy-bitcoin-in-new-zealand.html
  9. A handicap does make sense, but the run third and you're in One Star (so far) Mile will be the weaker race this year.
  10. Betfair Mobile App has a black background. Desktop site has a white background. Only site that as good to navigate was the old NZ TAB website.
  11. Obviously no point posting about it here then. Might be better for one of you to send the TAB an email about it.
  12. If they've just gone blunt you can sharpen the blades yourself. Go on YouTube and have a look.
  13. Graeme definitely got unders. That jacket and trousers would have to cost more than a bottle of bubbles, some shampoo and moisturiser.
  14. I think race callers are contractors so he'd be his own boss. Contracting has pros and cons like most things.
  15. Michael probably just thinks it's entertaining. Wouldn't be much of an edge if everyone watching gets the answer.
  16. The horse is Coruba Jak and Amber is not on Trackside.
  17. Frankie Dettori would be good for the profile of the event. Non racing people in New Zealand wouldn't have a clue who the others are, but everyone knows who Frankie is.
  18. Good to see tall poppy syndrome still alive and well in New Zealand.
  19. Opie gets all the best rides because he's the best rider. Same everywhere.
  20. If you don't want to see the dogs and trots there are numerous sites where you can watch the live feed uninterrupted. It's not hard.
  21. Good stuff. Only good thing to come out of Tony's departure so far.
