Streaming or are we dreaming:(

......some great international fare today......Ozzie flat.....Singapore and Dubai.......and no international stream yet......learning never to give too much credit.....my stream says BLANK

.....looks like the problem is on my side.....home ADSL absolutely choked today.....have gone over to a 3G signal and got Gr8 connection....

.....Oh but what's the use.....race closed but not running yet....must be truth in the 5min delay....hey

Take the missus out for lunch, less stress....

.....you right far too stressful.....now the 3G signal also choked.....gone over to Edge.....and so f@rking slow I'm going over the ledge....so streaming is not the answer.....TT you had better get your act together or racing is going to be a disaster....:S

Not even close but it's edible and we survive to see the next day so all's good...the wife appreciates the attempt as she is studying...

?.......what a ball's up.....TT showing live Jebel Ali racing and it is on international streaming 5 min later blocking the Singapore feed that is on.....another 2min later......:X

......the Singapore results are coming through before we even see the race.....this is a disgrace.....:X

Muhtiman - Sadly it is not a disgrace but actually their stated strategy - give or take a LOT more minutes in the delay than they promised. But then, hey, saying one thing and doing another is a common corporate habit these days. And Phumelela is not only a corporate but a monopoly as well.

I don't know if I'm glad or sad to add the following : It HAS to be impacting on turnover even if the punter is grimly determined to punt. My experience has been that I have missed numerous betting opportunities because races are regularly closing on the following events before I have finished watching the running of the race in question.

This may have unintended consequences - I am getting used to using the live Timeform Radio commentary again and dispensing with the picture unless there is a huge gap between my chosen events. I can see that the next development will be stopping punting on racing altogether.

I love their new strategy ... is doing an excellent job of weaning me off the game !! No racing yesterday, spent the afternoon with my boet at Grand West, playing blackjack, then poker, ... little bit of slots for the laugh (where I won the most : )...dinner at Bukharas where my lady joined us.... some music in Jackson Hall with a few cocktails then home.... nice day !! And I did not miss the racing at all (tu)
