Horse Racing

Plenty of trainers and people who are in the trainers yard will get someone else to bet for them especially when they put big bet on been happening for years.

Really don’t see betting on Favs know plenty of people online like to but your not going to get much profit backing them all if two or so lose at short price your chasing that money back and that’s not what you do in betting.
I prefer to look for value bigger prices if possible if you get one or two big price winners you know you will more or less make profit for that day.
I don't bet on favourites as have been burned far too many times over the years. Prefer to select my own bets and take a chance like that, normally my picks tend to be over 10/1.

I never back odds on favs, but I did have a short priced treble today that won, I done a treble in the evening racing on horses to place at short prices, but only one of them did.

That is the best way picking your own bets it’s what you like and want to have a bet on.
10/1 and over is good if you pick a winner or two your got good few quid back at them prices.
You will get people who try to get you to join their what’s app , telegram group etc for a good few quid a month but all they back is short priced favs etc and it’s pointless paying for that if you could easily pick a odds on fav yourself.

Good another little win.
What bookie do you use for your football bets.
Last night was awful at Chelmsford heard trainers and few jockeys were complaining about the surface the kick back was awful if your betting their today look for horses who lead or sit handy as their struggling to get involved from the back.
Might have a look at racing as day goes on if anything stands out but at moment probs a day to sit back and enjoy racing.
 
Had a nice win at the Lingfield all weather finals back in 2015. If I had done an equally divided acca instead of win I would have bag a few hundred quid more. Also the 4th horse was beaten a neck and a neck to dent me a treble payout!

Did you have a go at the Aw finals today?
 
Oh yeah forgot you didn’t back online.
Wonder how busy the bookies will be when they do reopen.
Depends if they limit punters to 15 minutes at a time or fully back to stay all day lol.
I think lots of serious punters have on-line accounts these days for easy access.

Yeah probs a limit of people for so long before they open as normal.
Yeah most people will have an account online due to BOG certain offers or some horse racing or football offers etc but do know some people still prefer the shop due to socially with others.

I am old school so cash is king for me. Don't want to be able to bet on-line because the temptation is too great to just whack a bet on and before you know it you are chasing your losses.
Also making money these days is all about using the trading sites and laying horses to lose. Did have a look at Smarkets but like a lot of on-line stuff they want all your personal details and are monitoring you like a hawk. Just like going into the shop, writing the bet out, pay with cash, if win, collect in cash, jobs done, all anonymous.
A big chain casino won't let me go in anymore unless I provide them with bank statements etc and there is absolutely NO CHANCE of that ever happening. They never asked me for those details when I regularly went in and lost thousands.

Everyone is different either prefer just shop or online or both.
Is temptation to bet online just a click away for some people and that can be to much for people and start chasing losses like you said , I just bet when I like to will have days away from betting and only bet what I am comfortable with.
Yeah crazy details they want now if your in VIP for bookie they throw money at you and keep tempting to bet which is awful.
That’s why I was saying other day about rules coming in the bookies are wanting all your history about tax return your mortgage personal life where money comes from if that person etc can confirm this they just want to control what you do but like I said what you do with your own cash is up to you.

Indie Angel done me for one bet , Had Diligent Harry, Bangkok and Khuzaam with it, but that was 3x£1 dbls and £1tbl up, other bet had just one winner, nothing back of it, Injury time goal for Preston done me out of a nice five timer, Norwich, Bournemouth, Watford, Sunderland and Cheltenham, came out £6 down for the day, but considering I got £560 on Wednesday night and £330 yesterday, I cant complain at all, the mrs and my two daughters, plus my grandkids have already gotten the majority of the winnings between them. I have done a goal in each half in the 2 evening championship games too.

Seen Norwich done a few bets in today.
Done two football coupons got both up £100+ back.
Plenty of racing on tomorrow you have some turf flat racing back.
 
For me I have to follow the horse racing daily to look out for potential bets and then wait till the right race and price comes along.
Bookies are a total disgrace, they know full well footballers are not allowed to gamble on football but still take their bets all the same.
I have never known a bookie close because he has lost all his money.
The article in the news the other day about Denise Coates and Bet365 shes the CEO and got paid £400+ million in wages and another £48 million in dividends.
It was the equivalent of being paid £1.2 million pounds per day!

Fair play to her I say. Sure, there are some people who can't control their gambling and it ruins many lives, but the vast majority of bet365 customers enjoy a flutter without it being a problem - for a lot of football fans for instance, a couple of quid on an acca every weekend is a nice little hobby, low stakes for high rewards. Bet365 provide them with a service to indulge in a hobby.
