Peter Jenkins 2,120 Report post Posted April 18, 2016 Actually I am convinced the TAB website clock runs about 1 minute late. Never bothered to check and find out. I have watched it click over to a start time only to find when I switch over on the telly that the race is half run and yet when you watch TV live, NZ races seem to inevitably start a minute or two over time. It is most likely done deliberately in some plot to increase turnover but would have the opposite effect causing many to miss out on placing bets. Being a watcher of NZ TAB coverage from the western side of the ditch I can never understand why starters in NZ are so tardy at getting races underway. The thing is that if they run a minute or two late, Sky TV here in Oz just switch to whatever is coming up next and the NZ race is replayed later (most times). This is a dis-incentive for Oz-based punters to bet on NZ races thru' Super TAB and ultimately costs the NZ industry turnover and dollars. For God's sake just start loading 90 seconds earlier and it would fix the problem. hedley, Los Lobos and sharne 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ohokaman 5,830 Report post Posted April 18, 2016 Some of them seem to think the start time is the loading time PJ.. Most of the races, particularly better ones, are the worst. Then you get something playing up and you are 2-3+minutes late. The time hardly ever gets made up either, so compounds the problem your end probably.
