got it at 12's in PP.

Stable like the horse alot and have good gopes for it, but think the Felix Yonger will be a tough competitor.

E/W a good bet, 9 runners, paying 3.

Ya Felix Yonger was second to Bold Optimist at Leop and Elliott said before the race that BO was one of the best he trained.

Still though, FY is drifting so there can't be huge confidence in him.

Yeah the Reveley's (trainer and jockey) have had a pretty decent strike rate over the last 12 months, profitable combo to follow. GL

Mafia Godfather finds out that his bookkeeper, Enzo,
has cheated him out of 10 million bucks. His bookkeeper is deaf.

That was the reason he got the job in the first place.It was assumed that Enzo would hear nothing that he might have to testify about in court.

When the Godfather goes to confront Enzo about his missing $10 million, he takes along a contracts engineer who knows sign language.

The Godfather tells the contracts engineer, "Ask him where the 10
million bucks is that he embezzled from me."

The contracts engineer, using sign language, asks Enzo where the money
is. Enzo signs back, "I don't know what you are talking about."

The contracts engineer tells the Godfather, "He says he doesn't know
what you are talking about."
The Godfather pulls out a pistol, puts it to Enzo's temple and says,
"Ask him again!"

The contracts engineer signs to Enzo, "He'll kill you if you don't tell
him." Enzo signs back, "Okay. You win! The money is in a brown briefcase,
buried behind the shed in my cousin Bruno's backyard in Woodbridge!"

The Godfather asks the lawyer, "What did he say?"

The contracts engineer replies, "He says you don't have the balls to
pull the trigger."

When you can't get the answer anywhere else - ask the BBV !

I need the answer to the following question and can't seem to source it anywhere.

How many of the 7,300 Irish bank employees of AIB and the 2,900 Irish 'group' employees of AIB in Ireland are unionised?

Can anyone find this out - have been trying - would really appreciate the answer / links etc.

Cheers.

WD Zod, I pretty much never sportsbet but decided to live life on the wild side today and push the boat out far enough to stick €10 each way; not gonna buy me anything new but free money is always good!

I almost never sportsbet either, but the guy I get the tips from knows the Reveleys pretty well so when he recommends one of their horses he's getting it straight from them, and almost always do the business.

which is why I put these tips in the BBV and not the gambling forum!

I don't get why Italian cup games start at 5.30 on a weekday, seems like an extremely counterprodtive way of getting as many fans to the game as possible.

they know no one will go to the games either way. Only games that get people at them are down south or the provincial teams. Napoli has sold out for the visit of inter but I presume there would be only a few thousand bump in attendance at a ticket price of 10 euro more than likely so getting the sole tv money and viewership will be more profitable that losing out to the Napoli inter game later.

Anyone know of any sites to check online cash table stats?

Great response from Pato after being dropped recently!

what time does the rebuy in the Fitz usually finish up tonight and is it stupid madness due to the cheap buy in or is it a reasonable standard

Well he is playing for his milan future. Id say he has 2 months max to change things or he will be shipped out. Goals against spurs are minimum requirement

Yeah I mean his goal record can't really be questioned, up there with any Milan greats in terms of goals per games, just frustrating at times that he seems to look disinterested and can be a liability in that mood.

Robinho's work rate has been the biggest surprise to me this season, really puts in a shift, his finishing of late though has been pretty awful.

I've got a funny Boyle's story about something incredibly similar.

I've had to ask customer support to transfer funds from sports to poker and vice versa multiple times on Boyles. For whatever reason they're interface never works for me (despite Paddy and a few others always working perfectly.) I always leave it till the last moment too, so am usually in a rush with the transfers. Customer support (which isn't a Boyle's service afaik) are always helpful with this, and are generally pretty cool.

I was trying to ship money from sports to poker and cos of the crappy software, I couldn't do it. I needed it pronto for a tournament, so asked customer support to transfer it for me.

Whatever happened, the money was transferred twice, leaving my sports account in the negative, and too much in my poker account.

I sent a mail to Boyle's about it the next day when I noticed. Note that they hadn't contacted me about a negative sports balance. I duly reported some error (still loadsa funds in my poker account to cover the neg balance). They then locked my ability to ask customer support to transfer funds (and the mail I received telling me this was ridiculously snotty).

I obv sent an angry mail saying that I reported an error in good faith and haven't done anything not above board (and in fact reported an error when I could have just stolen the money, left my Boyle's account in the negative, and not cared). Despite that I had clearly been above board, and the error had been on the part of their side, they'd removed a facility which I'd found pretty valuable over the past year or so.

After a couple of not very calm mails, they obv gave back that ability, but haven't played poker there since, (don't get to bet much on Boyles anyway, so never really bother.)

Can you PM me your details and I'll take a look at this. Its not good CS by any measure

Robinho's work rate has been the biggest surprise to me this season, really puts in a shift, his finishing of late though has been pretty awful of late.

Berlusconi questioned his injury proneness over the winter break, that coupled with the fact he separated from the wife hence why no ghey hand gesture after he scores anymore and is out partying more than ronaldinho. Plus his work rate as you mentioned. A lot of the older players are driven nuts by this which is why gattuso lost the plot with him at half time a few weeks back. His goal ratio is unbelievable but rumours around that a swap for balotelli could happen in the summer.

Also Milan today bought out the other 50% of paloschi and he will be joining up with them in the summer so that means there will be a strike force of Ibra, Robinho, Cassano, Pato, Inzaghi, Paloschi so someone will probably have to move on

[Loopz]

I've never had any problems with the boyles costumer service always found them courtious and helpful that goes for paddy power too, some of the others leave alot to be desired and could learn alot from these 2. I think that its not them personally who do the support (i'm often wrong with this stuff) but who ever it is I'm a happy costumer.
