I didn't realize I had such an impact
I have abandoned AUS markets completely in protest.
I used to have bets in every race including the trots, so turnover wise, I wouldn't say my contribution was small, although profit was.
As Mark indicated, traders and market makers will not worry one bit, but it becomes totally uncompetitive with Best Tote on the types of horses I back and for backers or layers of single horses.
It has even had an impact on those horses under $10, not just first and second favourites.
So I have moved my betting to UK and USA and have taken up AUS sports betting so my commission remains without the levy
I was just joking about my impact, my contribution is probably very small by average standards, but if I've done it, surely the bigger bettors will or have moved on, because of the greater impact on the profit.
It's only a matter of time.
