Betbrokers

[waddle147]

Accounts can get restricted from just one or two bets.

You could also argue that a professional gambler would be too shrewd to allow his accounts to become restricted. (Professionals will deliberately lose on accounts, whilst covering themselves on an exchange to avoid detection, as well as various other methods).

First sentence is spot on. You should have stopped there because the rest is nonsense which you could only argue if you had no knowledge whatsoever of the gambling industry. You won't find a single professional punter who deliberately loses on accounts and covers themselves on the exchange, because if they were that certain of the result they'd just place the lay bet. They'd mug bet on the account to attempt to prolong its longevity, but at some point a trader's going to see they're in profit, will continue to be so in the future, and sack them off. I don't think any UK-licensed bookie apart from bet365 would have an unrestricted punter who is £10k or more up with them in the account's lifetime, except if they're a celebrity/favoured customer, or have achieved it by unsustainable means (a big accumulator hit, a casino win, maybe a one-off golfer wins at a silly price etc.)

"The betway scandal, don't these people vet these sponsors?
Where is the due diligence?
Oh, hang on, it wasn't the bdo........ carry on."

ifm on real fanatics equating betway with betbrokers. Can't compare the 2 really but does look like betway have done a few things wrong re enticing addicts to bet more.

[Ginge]

Haha, thats desperate to compare the two. Betway are arses of the highest order, mind.

BDO shafted 24/7 for 20 grand as well I see
Oh dear

[Ginge]

Oh hang on whats this then?

New thread?

It is indeed wrong to compare the two. One is a petty thief the other is involved in some very serious financial crimes.

[Ginge]

One would hope the PDC tell Betway to do one, allowing someone to lose near 200k in 2 days without even sending an email (one presumes) is staggering.

The guys who did the O2? So not paid the master broadcasters nor this event. Not good.

[Ginge]

If its true then Battersby deserves all he gets, he would have known full well the Dutch outfit hadnt been paid and evidently did the o2 on invoice terms.

Maybe Sparky can tell us who on Fanatics has posted this....

Adrian Battersby Jordan Forbes add us to the list as well. They played us good and proper. Disgusting people and no one should believe a word any of the board says. We stepped in the help and the bdo got paid their full amount from eurosport and yet the 3 man board decide to screw us. Who the hell are Frank and robert. Kept their heads down when the going was tough. Really disappointed with des and his cast iron guarantee and he told me that Irwin would get paid also 100pc. Thank god the wdf will take over.

[Ginge]

Oh for god sake.

Adrian, you are an absolute idiot.

[devosteve]

New thread?

maybe you are right.

George West Adrian Battersby If you are the guy who did the production I wouldn't have paid you a penny , it was disgraceful, there was 1000s of comments and people asking on here was it sabotage , if I looked back at all your mistakes and reposted I would be here till doomsday. Peoples heads on different bodies , the whole thing was a complete and utter mess , I was in my local watching with the lads and Jesus it all went tits up misses a shot to win the game on a famous lady I think it was Lisa Ashton, So to whine about a cast iron guarantee from the Chairman ask yourself was it for a cast iron job? No it was for a fairground attraction. Worst in history."

This guy not upset they didn't get paid.

[devosteve]

seems like west is a fake account.

[Ginge]

Maybe it is fake but he is totally correct, the number of caption mistake were ridiculous. Schoolboy errors.

Tommy Thompson Having introduced Adrian and 247TV to the darts scene, and all the home countries use them for their events, once again we are hearing that the BDO has not only failed to honour their contracts with the players but now the second production company is not being paid, impact media from the World Masters and now 247TV from the World Championships.
With a scheduled 6 more TV events and 3 others announced in February, I ask myself who is going to produce these events for Euro-sport?? Further is included in the contracts of One80 and "L" style that events they sponsor must at a minimum be streamed/Televised. I don't know? but normally terms such as this are included.

Should have demanded 50% up front at least. Then if you get screwed your costs are covered and once bitten......

only himself to blame. Very naive to say the least
