they don't go all out in this. They start fast, slow down to get a breather. Penhill will stay fine.

Yeah, I've made that point a few times. No guarantee of a fast pace.

Have you backed anything in this race boopa?

I've written this race off.

I've backed Penhill 8/1 ew, Cracking Smart 40/1 Bachasson 45/1, Kilbrecken Storm 50/1. I reluctantly backed PP at 11/2. Very disappointing outcome as I missed the price on the fav I don't usually bet when the price has gone. I was hovering on 12/1 but left it. Sometimes you need to call it quits and move on.
 
Worse positions to be in though - Still have the front 2 in the market at a bigger price than they are...

On that. Not the best place to ask.

Tim But are you a streamer/ affiliate? Or play for fun....

Serious money to be made being an affiliate, ie the bandit.

Well I see it as a messy book. I backed PP at 11/2 to clean up my book. Completely missed the odds. I'm disappointed in myself on this race but it's one race I move on.

I've got a face for radio :highly_amused:

I know one of the YT/Twitch guys, and was completely unaware how much could be made, but I guess it's no different from these tipsters who used to coin it in from the same kind of thing.

I know one of the british streamers streams, and I thought he did the same thing I do, but turned out he just gambles, and makes his money from affiliate revenue, rather than the actual slots like myself.

Slots was easy a while back, but it's a lot tougher now, and the margins are smaller than 4 years ago.

Sit in the corner of a dark room and be disgusted with yourself.

P.S how does Scooby feel cashing out a life changer on PP for this?

Mixed. He hasn't won it yet and it's still a huge winner. But Jesus you should see the ammount i HAD on him. Cost me my account. I have to be happy though as I backed only to cash, I still have a very good ammount on him. diddnt fancy him I'll happily admit that. But ended up in a very good position now. And my bets as a WHOLE are a life changer

Good stuff!

Weird this year, with cashing out. Hopefully I'm in a strong position also!

Not a particularly bad position having 14pts win on him free rolling. At 25/1

But In answer I still wish I had 66 pts on him at 25s i must admit. Was my biggest ever bet by a mile antepost. But I couldn't afford to keep that tied up as was scared stiff of injury after taking a decent hit and losing 7pts on master dino.

Cashouts the key. Iv cut alot of crap early in the season with that. There's a couple I wish I had it for now.
 
Good luck to you but proper punters don't bottle it when we have kids. An edge is an edge.

I’d imagine most aren’t so insecure that they feel the need to try and goad people on social media/the internet

Isn’t a ‘proper punter’ someone who makes a profit from their punting? Like Scooby?

Wouldn’t fault anyone for putting their kids before money.
