I have emptied my betfair account doubling down on my Cheltenham festival bet, after all I won't need any money on betfair if Cheltenham is abandoned.  Am gambling that Dom Cummings puts looking hard above public safety.

I also doubled down yesterday on it not going ahead when the price flicked back out to 3.35 briefly.  Clearly there is a chance both ways but the market was comically mispriced when it opened and is only now starting to reflect reality as people have wised up.  As much as that was a good bet., I am not liking the situation that is unfolding.  A lot of people have and are going to die/get ill plus my equities have taken a brutal hammering this week, far more than the monkey I might profit from this lol market.

The virus could well struggle in warm weather.  Perhaps we will get some good data on that now countries with tropical climates are infected.  Cold Europe with our mass crowds is not in a good spot right now.  If you believe the Chinese data then infections are falling there and the population are being highly controlled.  You can't even go into a shop without a mask on apparently.  That level of control is not possible here but the strategy of control the spread until a vaccine arrives is all that can be done.   Hospitalisation rates of 15-20% would be crippling for the NHS if it keeps spreading.  How far into the outbreak did China go on lockdown?  We are already infected and have not even bothered yet so brace yourselves.  I saw Moody's rated this as 40% chance of pandemic yesterday.  Complete clowns.

Major E-Sports event cancelled for the public in Poland (still going ahead as a stream).  The Government ordered it off, they don't even have a confirmed case in Poland yet.

Amazon tells employees to pause nonessential travel in U.S. due to coronavirus

Given the long latency period reported for Covid 19 this is looking bad now.  It won't be a horse racing decision regarding Cheltenham, it will be a Government one.  They cannot take the risk of upping the spread of this thing.

"A study by Chinese researchers found that the Wuhan coronavirus incubation period can be up to 24 days, contrary to the previously believed 14 days."

You have less hobbies than me, Jez Grin

The racing decision was a given, no? We always knew they weren't going to call it off, and it would be on the government to if pressurised.

You better get onto them Cheesy

Would imagine they have a few e-sports teams in Asia?

Amazon don't want to be coughing up that sick pay.

Aintree, end of the PL, and the World Cup goners, then.

We do share one, smashing casinos.   I think I very briefly met you or your father on Ladbrokes poker cruise 1 or 2.  2 I think it was, a long time ago.   Do you get cashout values for antepost Cheltenham bets?

That was definitely one, while the slots were good. Had a nice 3 year run, but had to retire from that unfortunately. Juice not worth the squeeze with all the tightening up on bonuses/wagering.

Would have been my old man on 1, I only went on the Caribbean cruise that was a Laddies only ship. We were both on the 2nd one, though.

I've got no idea, to be honest. Would imagine they'll void everything, or some firms would. Hills might not, trying to claw back all the money they've knocked in on fines this year Cheesy

...✅ help eliminate viruses such as phytoplankton,...

of all the things that the magic card claims this is the only thing that really annoys Science Wife.

The rest is just clearly nuts but claiming that phytoplankton are a virus is just stupid is how she put it Cheesy

I don't know the finances, but isn't running Cheltenham behind closed doors as likely as cancelling?  Presumably levy + sponsorship + TV > prize money.

I see that as the reason racing going ahead is still a favourite at this point tbh.  

It's what they did in the Europa League on Thursday with the Italian teams for one.
