British Forum BETTING thread

That is great and I just check it's only about an 8 hour flight, I us to fly to las Vages in the week ends and that was abour a 4 1/2 hour flight but they only take the big US title fights anymore so now I have been using
A,A+ Rated on line sports book and those are few and far between.

 

Most betting shops can get any fight you want. The online site I use, Bet365, has the Clottey fight available and considering he's 1/100, it's quite impressive that they have those types of fights. They occasionally have womens bouts too.

 

How much do the betting shop take on a fight will they take $50000 on a fight.

 

Bet365 is good I would use them but they don't take US action so I us Book Maker,Diamond, Heritage, 5 Dimes.

 

I'm sure each company is different but it's higher than that. I believe you can put up to £1m on with Ladbrokes, which is about $1.6m.

I doubt you could do that online though but I'm sure it could be arranged inside a bookmakers.

 

On line I have 2 place's that gave me a $50000 limit but I think their going to cut me off soon, I have not lost in about 5 months and I Bet on about
3 fights a week so the UK will be my next step. :thumbsup

 

Sounds good, man. How much are you up/down overall? I worked out a while ago that I won something like 24 bets in a row. My vCash on here went up to 30,000 or something and that was all based off real odds.

...sadly, my gambling with real money is not as successful

 

For the year well over $400000 I do it for a living I use to own 2 large car dealerships and I sold them 3 years ago and now I only bet on boxing thats it, about 20 years ago
I bought my 1st car dealership with the money I made from betting boxing.

 

****ing hell.

Please bookmark this thread, mate

 

Ya, boxing has been good to me and I an doing something I really enjoy
when I go to Las vagas they comp me to all the big fights so thats all good. :good

 

you could get that on at betfair.com or betdaq.com - they are the exchanges. the bookmakers ban you if you win. they would probably take 50,000 on a big fight like mayweather vs pac but rarely would they take it on smaller fights. and if you won they probably would ban you.

as for betfair.com - you could get a lot of money on. 10 million was matched on ricky hatton vs floyd mayweather. but if you are a winner, betfair take 60% of your winnings which is shocking

 

Do they? :huh

 

Why would they take 60% of your winning :huh thats why they have odds.

 

its called the premium charge

if you are in profit at all and have bet on more than 250 markets, any more profit you make will get taxed at 20% by betfair

if you are in profit over 250,000 pounds, any more profit will be taxed at 60%

shocking stuff by betfair. they brought the 60% tax in a few months ago

 

So they collect the tax for the goverment then.
