BETFAIR coverage starts tomorrow

[buster]

yes because the racing industry is just so strong at the moment, its just so easy to be able to get a horse that can win enough money to pay for itself....oh wait, the industry is up the shit and all everyone wants to do is jump up and down and cry about something new, the tab does nothing for the industries betterment, if it was so good and fair like you are all making out then we would be racing for 10k every day

how about someone that actually punts for a living and supplies money back to the industry every day of the year comments on this instead of some harness tragics who just repeat the crap coming out of hrnz board rooms

if the attitude on here to betfair is reflective of nz's general stance then i hope betfair doesnt pay a cent to them, it will teach you to embrace something rather then try and beat it

I don't make a living off the punt but punt regularly enough and have NZ TAB Account, a Victorian TAB account, a NSW TAB account and a Betfair Account to know what I am talking about.

I stopped using the Betfair Account for Racing purposes a few years back because I know too many participants in the Racing Industry that work their backsides off to try and stay in the sport and by betting on Betfair instead of the TAB, I was effectively robbing these participants blind.

Why should the NZ Racing Industry embrace an organisation that uses their product and bluntly refuses to pay any money to it?

Its like embracing a thief into your home and telling them that it is ok for them to sell all of your possessions and advising that they can stay under your roof for as long as they want without paying any rent or board!
