I'm not being pedantic but there isn't a bookies in Leigh? There isn't even a bloody fruit machine there any more! (presume you mean the one near tonbridge, the only one I can think of).

If it's the hills in tonbridge the takings will be pretty high, it's next door to spoons so pretty busy...
Remember doing a special brew in there a good few years back!

Depends on how many teminals they have most WH have 4 so my guess will be 3k per day 21k per week 84per month,based on this close to 700k...But if you have a lot of chinese and keebab house punters i would say 800k...

So in 8 months, 4 fobt made/raw profit total of
8.3 million
that's £1'000'000 a mth
or £33'000 per day.
Bloody ridiculous

Not doubting what she told you mate but surely one zero over? Bloody hell! They could clear the world debt in 5 years!

£33000 a day would also on a hourly basis, by a 10 hour day, be £3300 per hour which would mean each terminal taking over £800 per hour each!!!! I know bookies are open for more hours than that but couldnt be bothered to work it out!

Bollox. That must be the amount of money staked.

Yeah that can't be right.
If you base it just on roulette paying out 97% then youre saying that 33k is the 3% retained = a total sum of about 3m staked per day?
