General Chat

General moan - William Hill going entirely NRNB has made a complete mockery of their prices, and their initial Handicap offers are an absolute joke. (They should be offering two markets the same as Bet365 usually do).

The industry as a whole have been very greedy this year, but from my first review it's almost as if they don't want anyone to place a bet with them.

I said I was waiting until the day for handicaps, (exception of Captain Conby Pertemps, a graded horse clearly pot hunting) and this has confirmed it.

It’s screwed me massively as it’s one of the few accounts I can bet as I choose. Might have to dust off the Corals account now!

It's a funny old game... Myself that doesn't have the access to Hills feels hard done by! As there's plenty in there i would like to get my hands on to add at NRNB! Looking at some I'm interested in aren't even shorter than what firms I can back with have them at ante post! Yes they have shortened the shorties even more which was expected, but I would bite your hand off to have the 'Luxury' of a Hills, to have a bit of security to some rather than the risk. I'm just hoping the accounts I do have, when their NRNB button is pushed there is some value to be had, but I'm not holding my breath.

….coincidentally, I was just looking at a few where Hills offer NRNB & are the same or even better than other firms.

Hopefully they’ll still be offering their periodic ‘double price boost’.

Nope, live in Northern Ireland and Boyles took them over few years ago!

First time I've had a chance to have a look at the Hills NRNB prices..........very, very fair I'd say. Think I'll be helping myself to a few over the next week.

Apologies if this has been around for a while and everyone’s already aware but I’ve noticed SkyBet have a limited ‘to be placed’ market on all races bar the handicaps. I don’t use SkyBet often and not sure how much use those markets would be (maybe for some dirty multiples in races that are bound to cut up). Just thought I’d point out that the option is there.

No entry for l'homme presse in the ryanair. After venetia's quotes that's reassuring for backers in the gold cup

Capodanno still alive

Betfair not suspending markets is a surprise.
some decent trades and trade outs

Yep, and you can expect your account to go as a result.
It's not hard to lose an account at the best of time, taking advantage of this would pretty much guarantee it.
I lost a Sky account a few years ago when playing place only doubles in festival races a week out that were clearly going to cut up, took 2 days for them to issue the red card...
