Blackbeard to conquer the World
March 5, 2019 at 18:33 #1399836Betbright has been bought by 888
March 5, 2019 at 20:01 #1399848Thanks Steve
I haven’t got an account with 888, they strike me as another two bob bit outfit
might see what offers they are doing for next week in terms of free bets sign up offer
Get what I can from them and stick them in the binBlackbeard to conquer the World
March 5, 2019 at 20:18 #1399850March 5, 2019 at 20:22 #1399851Yes, I took a look, they were offering bet 10 get 30 in freebets
but the t@c’s say it needs to be done on a mobile which I tend to not bet on unless I’m away for a long time for whatever reason.
part of myself discipline
so yes, giving them a swerveBlackbeard to conquer the World
March 6, 2019 at 15:10 #1399917888 say they are honouring Cheltenham Festival bets.
March 6, 2019 at 15:32 #1399923I’m astounded that no journalist I can find has approached Ricci for comment
March 6, 2019 at 21:22 #1399975March 6, 2019 at 23:41 #1400012888 say they are honouring Cheltenham Festival bets.
Not if they won’t let me log in….

March 7, 2019 at 11:16 #1400051888 apparently will honour Cheltenham bets but nothing else
What about this poor sod
The Guardian has seen details of two bets placed by the same BetBright customer last year. The first was a £100 each-way double on Luton in League One at 14-1 and Lincoln in League Two at 10-1. The second was a £25 each-way Trixie – three doubles and a treble – on Lincoln (4-1), Leeds United in the Championship at 5-1 and Arbroath, in League One in Scotland at 6-1.Luton, Lincoln and Arbroath currently top their respective divisions by five, two and 14 points respectively, while Leeds are two points behind Norwich at the top and seven clear of WBA in fourth. The book is effectively closed on Arbroath, who are now top-priced at 1-50, while Leeds, Luton and Lincoln are 5-2, 4-11 and 11-10 respectively.The each-way double has a potential pay-out of £18,075 including the initial £200 stake, while the Trixie would return £8,584 for the same initial stake if all three teams win their divisions.
Anger as BetBright ceases trading and declares void all unsettled bets
Early on Tuesday afternoon, however, BetBright decided that, from midnight, all bets were off and stakes were to be refunded. There was no offer to honour their side of the bets, no chance of a cash-out – which in this case alone would have run to several thousand poundsRicci should be made to sell his horses in order to fund any liability’s
He’s nothing more than a fraudsterBlackbeard to conquer the World
March 7, 2019 at 12:25 #1400061Yes, it’s disgraceful.
But has the poor sod missed a trick? Lincoln, Luton, Leeds…and Liverpool! Well, maybe not :)
March 7, 2019 at 13:01 #1400062Here is an article by Greg Wood:
which suggests Ricci may be seen as a welcher and booed at Cheltenham and that 888 may be damaged as a brand!

or Millwall to win the FA Cup
