Bet Victor banned me a few years back for winning around a grand on the horses over the course of a month or so. Bookies don't like to lose money.

Sure, but that's scummy as fuck.....

I understand that no casino is gonna let a poker don bankrupt them; but £1000 for a mainstream bookies is fuck all!
 
Not a betting man.... Is this kind of greasy shit common with online betting?

I match bet so they will know my game and ban me from promotions some almost immediately others I've had a while I do all the weekly bet clubs I can , I never bet with out the odds slightly in my favour and lay every bet I have backed on a betting exchange, it's known as a gubbing when you get banned from promotions often I'm still allowed to bet on extra race places that have a decent expected value overall on matched bets alltho many will lose small amounts, when my options are totally exhausted with the bookmaker I arb them which leads to being restricted to stakes of less than 10p etc fairly quickly

Landed a huge Arb on the Scotland match on Getting bet the other day tho and haven't been banned as yet.

My opinion bookies are quite quick to ban anybody who has an edge fairly quickly even if they don't Arb sharb or match bet and just know what they are doing.

I have literally had my custom refused from some online bookies on sign up because bookies are allowed to chose their clients and only want mug punters
 
So you matched bet? Why stop there do all of the bookies I've made over a grand in 6 weeks and expect to make £100-150 per month for the next 5 or 6 months.
Bet 365 do a promotion for Champions League games where if you place a bet before the game up to £50, then you get a free in play bet of the same amount. So before the game we would bet £50 on something like under 4.5 goals at 1-10 and then as the game starts we bet on over 4.5 goals at 6-1. If it was under 4.5 goals we won £55, so a £5 profit and if it was over 4.5 we would win £350 on the free bet which would cover the £50 you put in. You could change what you bet on so it was like a guaranteed £25 each time if you didn't want the chance of winning more.

I must be a rarity, I have never bet on football ever, in fact the only time I have ever bet was in 1987 when a friend of mine owned Greyhounds and he told me Cork Citizen would win at 16 to 1 so I put 20 quid on it and in it came, never bet since.

That's quite something! 999.999 out of 1.000.000 people would have lost that back - and a lot more - if their first experience was a 16-1 coming in. It's probably the worst first experience to have, actually. Good for you :sonpoint:
