                      JP McManus, Cheltenham Festival 2006: 'There is no way i will let my horse run loose to the start without any money on it if a bookmaker offers me more than 9-2.'
                      He had £150,000 at 5-1 to win three quarters of a million. It won.

                      Freddie Williams was the most famous bookie in the UK and the bookie who took the bet. He died a few weeks ago, he would take any bet, of any size, off any person.

                                  englishmike, explain to me how bookies at uk tracks work?

                                  they just stand around taking bets? are wagers in the uk not pari-mutual?

                                  how does the track or racing commission get their fair take?

                                  not understanding this one bit...

                                    OK, briefly: Bookmakers on the high street pay a percentage of their billions in profits to the levy board who distribute to tracks for prize money.
                                    Pari-Mutual operates at every track but nobody uses it. Bookmakers pay for their 'pitch' and make their own odds. On a busy track there will be 60-80 bookies all trying to get your money, hence the competitive prices.

                                      The safest way to double your money is to fold it over once and put it in your pocket.

                                            I always liked that one.



                                            Another one I like is:

                                                        "You're a lemon. Like a bad car. There is something... there is something inherently defective in you, and you, and you, and me, and all of us. We're all lemons. We look like everyone else, but what makes us different is our defect. See, most gamblers, when they go to gamble, they go to win. When we go to gamble, we go to lose. Subconsciously. Me, I never feel better than when they're raking the chips away; not bringing them in. And everyone here knows what I'm talking about. Hell, even when we win it's just a matter of time before we give it all back. But when we lose, that's another story. When we lose, and I'm talking about the kind of loss that makes your asshole pucker to the size of a decimal point - you know what I mean - You've just recreated the worst possible nightmare this side of malignant cancer, for the twentieth goddamn time; and you're standing there and you suddenly realise, Hey, I'm still... here. I'm still breathing. I'm still alive. Us lemons, we **** shit up all the time on purpose. Because we constantly need to remind ourselves we're alive. Gambling's not your problem. It's this ****ed up need to feel something. To convince yourself you exist. That's the problem."
