Not sure what to make of his time at the head of Flutter. He managed to give them a big push into the US and turn them into a Goliath, but of course they've continued to spend enormous amounts of money and not really seen a return on it.

He seemed customer-friendly, but the company is rapidly becoming non-existent.

Rightly, the buck has to stop somewhere.

I wish someone with a brain would buy the exchange and spin it off.

IMHO US based companies will make the Betfair exchange irrelevant in 5 yrs, if not sooner.

If I was still in this for the long term, I would be looking at other solutions. The Uk gamblling landscape is just too political/regulated.

They are now too far behind to get back in. Toasted.

Pic is Draft Kings volumes - which shows the growth etc. Crypto grey site - Stake, also showed phenominal figures.

Could you easily switch your strategies to draft kings or other US platforms?

Pretty easily - and found other opportunities, without the headaches Betfair "customer service" provided.

If you can manage risk, there are possibilities everywhere.
