Deduction Theft Sportsbet got this right some time ago but noticed they are falling into the old habit of applying deductions for initial scratchings but not compensating for additional scratching thereafter - Take race 2 at Ballarat on the 29/05/2022 KEPPEL BAY was scratched and the deduction was 44c the win ( a bit steep but acceptable) The odds for the rest of the field after that scratching is cut in half, a $15 chance before scratching of Kepple Bay is reduced to $7 - Front Lawn is then scratched some time later leaving a bigger than normal deduction as if it was scratched at the same time as Kepple Bay - Now the deduction is correct for Front Lawn BUT Kepple Bay's deduction must be reduced to compensate for punters that placed bets when there were no scratchings. TAB do this and Sportsbet had it right so what's going on?TAB's initial deduction was 40c when Keppel Bay was scratched and then reduced it to 33c when Front Lawn was an additional scratching thereafter. TAB got it right so why is Sportsbet screwing early fixed odds punters? 100% theft and they obviously know it but what can one do? NT Racing Commission are useless and side with the bookmakers saying if you do not like the way they take out deductions do not bet with them.These are the total Deductions from probably the biggest 3 Betting outlets in Australia for the win on race 2 at Ballarat that dayTAB - 49c Bet365 - 49c Sportsbet 59c Some of the positives I will give them is they let restricted punters like myself (not all) on to win more than the others so tick there but that BS deduction at Ballarat has me fuming as I know it is just blatant theft and they are hiding behind the NT Racing Commission - A number of the smaller Corporate Bookies on that day (Playup) also ripped punters off with deductions BUT as Sportsbet are by far the biggest and should know better they get the wrath from me.
