Somewhat interestingly, I've never heard of a case where either the WA or NSW Govt has taken action against anyone for using Betfair or any other betting exchange. They must have very well Orwellian behaved Citizens in those states. Or perhaps it's because they know they could never win such action if instigated? And, the consequences of losing? Too horrendous to think about - opening the floodgate to awful consequences for the local racing industry. Who are these guys and their respective racing ministers trying to kid? Who's pockets are they in?
