BetVictor

wtf has the betting industry come to when, aside from the now usual restrictions and closures, bookies are knocking back perm bets.
 
I think there’s nothing to stop anyone constructing a Lucky 31 or whatever using a combination of multiples and singles so they have effectively just removed the bonuses

However they have also removed the convenience of Lucky bets which will put people off.

A poor show by BetVictor

BetVictor has reversed its decision to remove Lucky bets for racing punters, instead removing the bonus concessions that made the bet type "unsustainable" for the firm. The operator originally announced the decision to remove Luckies yesterday via a statement to The Racing Post, where sportsbook director Matt Scarrott said it was unsustainable to offer :rolleyes:
 
It's easy to get around by doing a Yankee plus 4 singles, but I'm surprised by their decision in the first place. So they had a massive payout on one bet, how many losing bets had they taken ten's of thousands I'd bet.
 
When the Lucky 15 was introduced, not too many years ago, it was a ploy by the bookmakers to lure singles punters into changing their ways. It backfired because singles punters by and large carried on as usual but the Yankee punters switched to the Lucky 15 because it was better value.
Corals stopped the 10% bonus for an all correct Lucky 15 a couple of years ago.
