    used to be a betfair room in the merrion casino in dublin (beside the FAI) Closed long ago unfortunately. Obviously wasn't making cash.

    Why would people pay to use a shop, when they can just use betfair or betdaq IR at home?

    the set up in the merrion was quaity. quick as lightning broadband and several screens showing all major sports. Was free at first but whenthe poker took off they began to charge 2 euro an hour and it was worth every penny

    WB,the reason i would pay to use a shop is because sis has about a 2 sec advantage over atr.its still possible to make it pay with the other pictures but its not easy.when playing the punchstown festival which was on rte and had the same time delay as sis due to being in ireland,the faster pictures were most noticable.

    all chronicle do is take betdaq prices and shave off about 10%, a waste of time for laying but you can still sometimes get better than board prices if backing.

    Bookies will only have their own odds up certainley not the
    betting exchanges :eek: .
    When you see the %'s they're taking, you'll walk away and go and use the Be, it's scandalous.
