pick 6 PE - Disaster

With Saftote a lot of these smaller midweek Mon to Fri centres see bigger pools than if they stayed solo.

Try and go back to pre P days and see what pool they attracted and why they landed in the dwang.

Might be a good exercise to have a study show how much " LOCAL " MONEY GOES INTO A POOL IF WE ARGUE ABOUT PROVINCIALISM.

they just want to steal a portion of the inevitable carryover money, simple as that

I haven't read all the posts on this thread yet...just got home and still have to do the chores....and cook....but I nearly agree with you Bob....the money must stay in the centre where it was run...PE carryover to stay in PE and not be divvied out to other meetings....MO....

how about all the pools rolling over to one meeting end of the month then you have Mega Pool 50bars

LOL @ kENIZA

The operators would just love to have you on board and come up with these ideas, like Vee has done to the detriment of the SMALL PUNTER.

Must admit though, a once a month rollover will create lots of INTEREST.<

My point....the coupling rule was introduced after many years...back in the Dark Ages.... because of perceived collusion within a stable (with or without the trainers knowledge)....in the Jackpot nogal....so my question is....what has changed...? The rules were drafted after years of trial and error....and now for want of a quick big buck....(which very few will attain except Vee and Co)....we are coerced into allowing unethical (IMO) practices, to be possibly performed.....:S

It goes without saying that if 2000 people win a pick 6 and it only pays a few rand that upward of 90% of those winnings would be reinvested with the tote but if there is only 1 or 2 winners of a huge pool then the reinvestment % would drop drastically so I don't believe that the object of the new rules is purely for the benefit of the operators but also to create a monster pool for us to chase...

or perhaps they did not think of that?

maybe we should take this coupling rule one step further as it was done many moons ago as im sure the old timers will remember where on the tote if an owner had more than one horse in a race those horses were coupled for a win...its a game of skill to pick 6 winners so why shd the stable coupling count...there are many bets offered such as pa pot pick 3 dbles etc so imo everyone is catered for by the tote

pirates the p6 is pure luck no skill required
