Gubbed Question

I don’t know when they’ll gub you but it’s a virtual certainty that it will happen at some point.

Each to their own but I would carry on hammering their offers and not worry about being gubbed. If you want to mug bet then go for it but I wouldn’t bother if the only point is to try to avoid a gubbing.

Good luck!

Depends on your level.

I’m happy to be gubbed as there is always a new bookie waiting to be exploited. It’s a merit badge. A sign you are doing things right.

If you are kind of a professional level then healthy accounts are your life blood. So you need a mug betting strategy. Most of us here don’t have the time and money to lose on a real mug betting strategy.

Don’t think gubbing is the end of the world either. You just adapt. For example I am gubbed and restricted to about €2 stakes on sky and still can make about a tenner per night when I want to on their US racing. That’s probably more than I used to make on their money back offers and sky bet club.

I actually feel like they have fooled me. They pay me minimum wage to monitor their odds and highlight the ones out of sync. Probably cheaper than employing a few more traders. Sometimes I back a horse that then starts to drift on the exchange and sky still shorten the price, seemingly on my recommendation!

Anyway, good luck!
