Limited praise because I reckon they should re-bet you if they later put up a price greater than the one at which you bet - clearly they want to hold more on such horses, so why not allow you to be the one betting more?<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:black'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:black'>Now the bad - for illustration purposes I put $2 Place at $3.70 on a Sydney Metro race at 8:52 EDST yesterday<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:black'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:black'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:black'><img width=825 height=511 style='width:8.5937in;height:5.3229in' id="Picture_x0020_2" src="cid:image001.png@01D48A3D.58303720"></span><span style='color:black'> <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:black'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:black'>That "plunge" causes "Australia's biggest bookmaker" to turn the horse from 12/3.70 to 10/3.30! No, it's not a coincidence and I bet at the same time as substantial bet(s) were made - it happens almost every time I bet; I tested what amount triggered the program and it was $2 - $1 has no effect, aren't they brave. Sportsbet turning prices in often causes a chain effect as others "follow the leader", particularly in minor races with less disclosed form. Not in this case, but often ostensibly a plunge across a range of bookmakers because of a single MBL Place bet, and presumably the same could be prompted by $2.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:black'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:black'>Don't I wish I was as good as their reaction suggests!<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:black'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:black'><img width=816 height=502 style='width:8.5in;height:5.2291in' id="Picture_x0020_3" src="cid:image002.png@01D48A3D.E35EB560"></span><span style='color:black'><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:black'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:black'><o:p> </o:p></span></p></div></body></html>
