Darkydog. I definately agree with you about the old time bookies turning in their graves if they could see what has happened now.

Do you think the track bookies are any better than the million dollar betting shops who continually brag about the gigantic bets they take, and on the other hand only want losers betting with them.

An Adelaide bookie is regularly on the radio saying he bet to lose $40,000 on numerous occasions but a punter I know said it's near impossible to get $5000 on in the Adelaide ring.I went to the track for 40 years but would sooner bet in Vanuatu and get the best of the 3 totes.

No replies yet from the fearless bookies.
