THE MOST DEVESTASTING BLOW TO AUSTRALIAN RACING ENTHUSIASTS
IN THE PAST 25 YEARS
ON AUGUST 22ND 2026 ALL AUSTRALIAN TAB TOTE POOLS WILL BE AMALGAMATED.
THIS MEANS NO MORE PAYOUTS FOR BEST TOTE WHICH ON AVERAGE WILL COST US AT LEAST
5% BUT ON THE EXOTIC MARKETS WILL COST MUCH MORE.
FOR EXAMPLE I REMEMBER BEING PAID $86,000 FOR A FIRST 4 AS THAT WAS BEST TOTE FROM 365.
THE OTHER TOTES PAID $5,000 AND $11,000 FOR THE SAME RESULT. THE LIKELY PAYOUT ON A COMBINED TOTE WOULD HAVE BEEN AROUND $13,000 A MASSIVE LOSS BY COMPARISON
HAVE A LOOK AT THE FIRST AT BALAKLAVA YESTERDAY…………..
THE OTHER VERY BAD THING IS THAT FOR THOSE WHO HAVE BEEN BANNED FROM FIXED ODDS MIGHT BE ABLE TO GET ON IN THE LARGER TOTE POOLS.
EVEN BETFAIR WILL BE AFFECTED. WILL THAT BE POSITIVE OR NEGATIVE? ONLY TIME WILL TELL
