Come clean, becareful, do you have a vested interest in the expansion of Betfair.
Yes or No!
Answer honestly and you won't be judged!
I'll leave it at that!

Cheers.

Xanadu,

No - no vested interest (apart from the link on my website but so far that has not earnt me enough to qualify for a cheque - and probably wont)! I just like them because so far have had quite a bit of success with both racing and sports betting with them. It is much easier to make money when people are offering prices at least 10% higher than TAB or bookies!

As a punter though I have a huge interest in seeing the TABs drop their withholding rate - would make all our lives a whole lot easier if we only had to overcome a 5-8% disadvantage instead of a 15-20% disadvantage. Cant see it happening though!

I think anyone interested in getting value has a vested interest in Betfair & others expanding.

Well said Mark!

We could also say..

Anyone interested in "WINNING" has a vested interest in Betfair & others expanding, and when enough punters realise that VALUE equals PROFIT instead of loss - they too will do absolutely anything to keep BetFair in operation and make the TAB's more realistic in the pecentage of the pool they offer punters.
