[AusRace] "We'll Bet You"

[Race Stats]

They're all pretty pathetic Len with a few exceptions.
You're probably getting limited because you're on the list of winning punters they share.
I know you hate laying, but to continue without just about everybody closing you down completely (or effectively) eventually, you have to lay off any winnings on the exchange at BFSP. You have to look on paper like a mug not a winner. Then you'll get offers galore and they'll take you on for mostly the full amount. It's really the only way around it, especially with Luxbet closed down and no access to UK based bookies.
What makes me laugh is Racing.com where, they quote thousands of dollars being invested by in their own words "some very savvy punters".
You think those very savvy punters were able to get on for those amounts, it's all smoke and mirrors!

Looks like the new kid on the Dynamic Odds block is issuing a challenge to them -

I opened an account for $1,000 with SportsBetting a few days ago, have had 4 $100 or less bets, and today asked for $100 @ 3.50 place Inv 7/11. Accepted $36.72. Pathetic enough, but immediately turned down to 2.70 (Win price untouched, so it's not like they had a flood of bets, most likely just my bet to lose $91.80).

I think you should write "bookmaker", to distinguish these feeble critters from on-course bookmakers, the weakest of whom has x times the guts and y times the ability that they do.

CentreBet and ClassicBet are the worst Len.
You'd think they'd want to even their books a little because most of the action takes place on the favourite or firmers in the market.
But that's never the case, their little servers and databases refer your bet to a bookmaker who rejects simply on liability, probably because you're a winning punter, but not necessarily so.

Yes, sure you will CentreBet.
I asked for $100 Randwick 1/5 @ 126.00, knocked back to $16, which is their right.
CentreBet treated me with well-deserved distain and lengthened it to 151.00, obviously wanting to hold more money than my $16, so I asked for $100 at 151.00. Rejected in full, which is again their right, but why drift it if they won't take even 50c at that price?
"Pathetic" does not do them justice.
