don't bag unitab

Postby stampy » Mon Mar 15, 2010 4:42 pm

home crook from work i thought it would invest my $50 freebie from sportsbet

i liked stawell race 3 no.9 so on it went, it shites in and pays 4.70 on vic and nsw and 5.20 on unitab, you beauty i thought as i backed it on country best

i loaded up on race 4 no.1 with another $50, no worries there either, 3.00 on vic and nsw but 3.60 on uni.

then my best of the day race 6 no.2, put a ton on, gets up on the line, 2.30 vic and nsw and 2.50 unitab
.
here i am thinking i have a profit of $490 until i find out that unitab isnt included in the country best odds!!!!

i am $415 in front so maybe i shoulnt complain, but as they say a punter is never happy :evil:

i will never bag unitab again!
Go The Tiges!!!

unitab are a joke mate make no mistake. you had a good run where they were overs, usually and over a long LONG period of time this is not the case. they do nothing to reward local punters or promote racing that is why so many are turning to the internet to get more reliable odds from agencies.
They rely on mug punters and victims like yourself to fund them.

Stampy, I'm not sure if Country Best and City Best are the same thing. Maybe I haven't read the fine print that well but I know on Saturday's that you get the best of Uni, NSW and STAB. Dunno if your problem is due to the Country/City best thing or not.

Country best = Best of Vic/NSW

City Best = Best of Vic/NSW/Unitab

Bit unlucky there stampy, have a look over a longer period and you would be well ahead with Country Best v Unitab. There is only one reason they dont include Unitab in Country Best and thats cause the pools are so low it is vulnerable to manipulation.

it is aMALzing though when i've been to interstate meetings i hear punters bemoaning the fact ''that they always pay more on unitab'', sometimes it just might be where you are & what you perceived it to be


ps, you'll have to have more days off stampy as the wagers are better :lol: ;)
i thought secret groups were a thing of the past, well not on websites anyway

Interesting to note that, in round one, Unitab opted not to offer markets on either "Most Goals" or "Most Disposals - group" for any AFL games (there were limited player A v player B Most disposals markets, but not the standard 8 players per group option).

I've got a problem with Unitab's online services. You'd think they could offer better services on line than they do in house. Only allowing a four multi bet is not as good as other online services. And not having the box trifecta options that you do have when betting in house is pretty ordinary.

I assume by box trifecta options you mean the mystery bet options??? If so, I agree...

And the only TAB that wont pay a third dividend after 2 late scratchings in 6 horse/dog fields

When did North become consistent?
Port looked reasonably good v Centrals 1st game and lost Mickeljohn in the play v Eagles.
Good luck to you if you take it.
For every one I miss I am closer to a hole in one.

North consistently belt the bottom couple of sides each year, they have a very good recent history at Alberton, there main problem is consistency against the premiership contenders.
