    Tbf, for a lot of people they are and it is. Its a lot easier to put more of a balance on a screen on a bet than it is to put more physical cash on it. Just because you can control it doesnt mean everyone can and they dont necessarily have to have a gambling addiction either.


    Ya I agree but don't gamble then.

    In the context of making a return from gambling online accounts are essential.

    'Don't gamble then' I hope anyone working with addicts has thought of such a novel approach

    I think you missed my point.

    But yes if you are gambling for more than recreational reasons then an online account is essential.

    I have a log of his bets he’s in the hole for >-500 each year that’s ignoring the after timing which ratchets up when he hits a long losing run. He genuinely thinks he’s some sort of demi god but hey better he’s plying his nonsense over their than polluting this place .

    never seen a fraction as much of it from anyone else and when it's brought up his apostles are there waiting to insult you, place is full of arselickers who can't see the wood for the trees.

    It takes a special type of narcissist to aftertime a 4/1 to make out they had a successful day

    Also takes a special type of plonker to not see through the bull****. Yet anyone that questions him gets abused by the idiots. Some of whom post here also.

    Its funny looking at the mutual admiration society on here,many of whom probably never had a proper bet in their lives and are only concerned with heaping scorn on those who disagree with them.

    One ape is such a liar that he denies what he has written and tries to pretend that a statement he made was a question.Very recently they lent support to someone who contradicted himself several times and claimed he backed a horse in a particular race when it was plain to see the horse ran in a different race altogether.

    They supported that particular clown because he was critical of me for tipping a horse at a price of 11/4.The ringleaders are probably not punters at at all for one hardly ever sees a decent bet they make.

    They would appear to spend most of their time on the thread deriding the efforts of others to find winners while they themselves post about everything except backing horses most of the time.

    It is laughable, or perhaps pathetic the way they ramble on in their mutual admiration society,thanking each other for the incoherent and useless posts that sometimes have little or nothing to with gambling.

    You refer to those who may disagree with you as idiots! Whether you like it or not everyone is entitled to air their views and I certainly will continue to do so.

    The only abuse handed out here is coming from yourself and the rest of the mutual admiration society who resent the act that some of us pay no attention to the nonsense emanating from an incestuous little clique who think these pages are just for yourself and a few delusional fellow travellers.

    I wouldn't bother Zimmer. These dopes haven't posted a winner in their lives. All they do is talk rot.

    Your right. Now would you do the place a favour and go back to the after timing pit where you belong like a good lad. You seem to bring trouble where ever you preach your after timing bile.

    A few absolute headbangers following one guys bad tips

    That's 37 bets now and just 4 winners? Or is he some sort of sacred-cow type legend?

    I will post wherever I wish and if yourself and the mindless muppets who hardly ever tip a winner and sneer at other posters who are not afraid to suggest ceretain horses have a chance of winning.I will not be bullied or intimidated by you or any of your cronies.

    Sure there's a small bit of that now and again, but easy enough to dismiss/ignore. But as far as can see there's more winners than most folks have (well the very few that actually post any fancies) so worth some occasional discrepancy.

    Even if it's just sometimes market movers, saves an extra click or two around the various webpage bookmarks.

    There used to be a few that would stick up nearly a dozen on a daily basis and always in a big bold font, from memory very few ever won.

    Long time lurker, always read this thread and the stallions one. Different kind of knowledge imparted than the general betting/after timing ones.

    Thumbs up from me..........
