Urgent!!!!! TAB Pools continue their cataclysmic collapse

All along i thought SA racing was on life support for longest time and 1 Mar is fast approaching. The plug will be pulled out anytime.

Then maybe we could get full coverage of HK and Singapore racing.
That would be brilliant.

The Judgement was rightfully brutal to 4Q's predecessor who at the time were the BSD's and all conquering, pretty much like the way 4Q is handling GC and HWB re airing KZN racing on C240.

I (want to) contribute my racing charity to pay for the show that we are given via the Pick 6 using the “Bet with TOTE” platform on HWB.

Hell, I do not want to use the Tote to place my on-the-nose- bets. No sir!

Who in their right minds would have a bet on a fancied runner via the tote ( including the saviors).

It is not intelligent to take 5/10 on an even money shot.
This is no exaggeration, it's more normal than exceptional.

Plus as you place more you are automatically dropping your own odds.

Good Punting

The tote is for exotics and let's focus on that.

… and we must not forget that some of the bookies themselves are agents to the Tote. For Pete’s sake, some of the bookies are helping the Tote.
(I’m not familiar with UK bookies but are there Tote platforms within the bookies’ websites? Apart from Coral, whom I think owns the Tote, I wouldn’t think so).

This is how much less the pools are compared to this time last month at Fairview....
Bipot R43 000 less
PA R137 000 less
Pick 6 R39 000 less

Just shows us how good a job 4Q racing are doing for the pools.
The people in charge have got to go now or our racing is doomed for sure

WHO ARE THE PEOPLE IN CHARGE THAT HAVE TO GO NOW:

Savage
De Kock
Riley
Clucas
Lance Smith (this is the china who didn't know who Alastair Cohen was when receiving his resignation!)

WHO ELSE???

I have not had a bet on the tote for many years and have no plans to change this trend. My bookmaker gives me a much better service than the tote ever did. I opened one of the first Telebet accounts and my number was in the 300s. I used this account for many years and do not want to know how much money I churned. Despite this long and loyal support I doubt that the tote ever knew my name. Not a 1 c thank you. Nothing for my birthday. Nothing for turnover. A big fat ZERO.

If anyone can give me a valid reason for supporting the tote I would consider returning. Boosting stakes for fat cat ownwrs, trainers and jockeys does not count. South African racing leaves me cold at the moment and I would have no problem if it ceased. I prefer overseas offerings anyway.
