Think Tom will have poker accounts with a lot of the bookies so won't get many new player bonuses imho




I do have loads of poker accounts but aren't they separate?

They have the same login details so I wouldn't imagine so.

That would vary from firm to firm.

I would imagine that if you have an account with Sky Poker, you automatically have one with Sky Bet, (& Vegas, Bingo, Casino) as it is a Common Wallet.

Pretty sure of that, otherwise you could Bonus Whore on each of those sites. You CAN take advantage of the various offers each arm has, but as to New Account Bonuses, no, I doubt it.

That was a much better & more succinct answer. Jeez, it has come to a pretty pass when a Scot writes better than an English bloke.

I doubt I'll ever bet often enough to make a difference anyway.

There must be SOME Firms you don't have an account with, Tom?

It does not matter that you don't or won't bet much - some Firms offer a Free Bet to new Accounts. That's free money. Several of the TfT regulars will explain how you can optimise Free Bets.

For bonuses it depends on the site. Some treat you as an existing customer, some treat you as a new customer if you only played poker.
I know both Coral and 888 gave me silly odds on the footie as a new customer even though had the poker accounts for years!!

By way of experiment because I've got no time to type I'm speaking this into a voice recognition program.

I want to have a bet on the golf but I don't have any betting accounts and uh I don't know whether I'm best to just open an account or about their account Are Us somebody else on here to put a bet on for me and transfer it to them by and do a bank transfer it on PokerStars or something.

What do you think?

You could have entered this:

You would have got 4 days of fabulous entertainment and the additional bonus of beating Mr Kendall thrown in at no extra cost.

The categories put me off. I don't always know who fits where.

Absolutely no reflection on Mr Mere. He does a fabulous job and I'm full of admiration for him, but...

For me, this feels like work.

It's like those car racing games on X Box and PlayStation. They make them uber realistic. You have to choose the correct tyres, gear ratios, suspension settings etc, otherwise your car is crap.what's more, if you crash your fecked.

I just want to race without having to mess with stuff first. Give me a totally unrealistic beast of a car with just an accelerator and a brake to control it. One that shoots fireballs at the competition when I overtake and miraculously rights itself after I crash. Then just let me go and have fun.

well when you are ready sub-markets are where your knowledge can often exceed that of the bookmaker

the more specialist the market in the more minor event, the greater the chance of the mis-pricing
