    Went into Ladbrokes, Paddy Powers and Boylesports today and seen the new machines that you can bet on.

    Some of the odds on those machines are slighty shorter than the prices online or in the respective shops.

    Is it just to short change the punters and get the mugs?

    They are the football machines (mainly) run by BGT.
    Boyles have just rolled them out in their shops and will be in 200 of them shortly.
    Paddy Power and Ladbrokes have had them for a while now.
    The machines all have the same odds in the 3 shops and the price are 98% lower against their own shops prices!
    Paddy Power and Ladbrokes would have the higher odds so the difference with those 2 is significant.
    Add them all up and the accum then becomes significantly shorter on the machine.
    It is easier to do a large multiple on it but you are paying for the ease.
    Limits of the machines are Paddy Power €100,000, not sure of Ladbrokes, Boyles is only €10,000 :confused:.
    Interesting that all of the bookies state you are having the bet with them but they are NOT using their own odds.

    DO NOT USE THEM unless you want to do a multiple fold bet and couldn't be bothered to write them out.
