Must Read Bet365 consider sale!

[Webzcas]

The owners of the British Bookmaking giant Bet365, the Coates family, are reported to be considering selling the business for a cool £9bn.

Bet365 headed up by Denise Coates have over the past quarter of century grown to become one of the largest online gambling empires in the world.

I also have a small claim to fame, I once walked past and spoke to Denise Coates in the corridors of the Bet365 offices in Stoke several years back.

Got to be one of the biggest gambling companies in the world now. Considering where they came from, that is quite an achievement.

I guess we wont be seeing anymore of those hit jobs in the Guardian about how much Denise Coates is paying herself.

You know all the big-hitters in the industry Jan, maybe you can get us a few quid off the price tag.

So you didn’t need to lower your RTPs after all?

Due diligence required. Current money laundering investigation in Australia as well as Denise's charitable foundation is being scrutinized as just a dumping pot for the group to avoid taxes as the foundation hasn't put much out in charitable funds.

No doubt max RTP’s will go if they do ffs

B365 are not a bookmaker, they are another shill outfit that filters out anyone with a clue.

True bookmakers accept bets from anyone, sharps or squares.

Yes. They purged me 8 years ago when they were hanging +600 on next score Field Goal in NCAA bowl games. Hit them for the MAX on half dozen games. Next day, couldn't login. CS says management decision to close the account and no further discussion will be had. *snip*
