dbtab 95 Report post Posted March 30, 2017 What do caffers think of this waste of money by the tab a daily competition which gives you a chance to get 5 dollars if you have had a bet the previous day over the month of march 18.000 daily $5 draws and 100 draws of $100 at the end .Would prefer they gave 1 odd boost bet a day like Ladbrokes Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disillusioned 389 Report post Posted March 30, 2017 Indeed, dbtab... My account, for months, has had $0.80 in it. Every now and then I get an email saying my account has been 'boosted' by $5 that I have to spend within a few days. Giddy with this newly-acquired wealth, I usually spend it immediately on an even-money sports bet. That my account is back down to $0.80 should tell you I suck at such 'endeavours', ha. But I guess the TAB will be able to claim in its latest glossy report my account is still 'active'... Hall 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is one thing one learns over time and thats "keep it simple" Betting on horses has become far from simple and instead very complicated and messy. There are numerous ways to simplify it. Here is just one. Combine the trifecta and first four pools. All players get the same trifecta dividend and those that have gone for first four split their winnings based on the fourth horse.

Ive rolled the play now button a few times now (obviously not good at picking them) and best ive done is got $5 once The only prize you can win when you push 'Play Now' is $5. It's designed like the dreaded slot machines. If you win the prize you're unlikely to race down to the local TAB (which these days is usually about twenty miles away) and cash in. Instead you just spin it away. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If u wish to collect via racenet, can u have your winnings paid back to your bank account or debit plus card? Additionally let say you put 200 in ur racenet account, can u bet in nz dollars or does it convert to Aussie dollars? That is extremely attractive for new sign ups those offers Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike28 182 Report post Posted April 1, 2017 i have both a sportsbet account. and a bet 365 account. take advantage of the sign up offers etc both these accounts except nz dollars. it takes a while to get verified etc. but once all that is over you will never go back 90% of the time you will get better odds even when betting on nz races. bet 365 has better odds overall and is easier to join. sportsbet odds are not as good but they have heaps of promotions etc that make up for it and they give one powerplay per day when you can enhance the odds on your horse by 15% or something similiar. i have had these accounts for about 6 months now and loving it I realised about 6 months ago i work hard for my money and am not going to accept crap odds anymore ever since i have turned a tidy profit and am better for it JOIN THE MOVEMENT hedley 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
