The Thinking Man's Betting Site

Hello and welcome to the Punters' Paradise experience.

Those that know us from our previous incarnation know what we are about but for newcomers here's a break down of the Punters' Paradise philosophy.

"We believe that betting is a blood sport and that if you are going to do it, you do it properly."

We believe that betting is a blood sport and that if you are going to do it, you do it properly.

We believe that theoretical rigour should be applied to every aspect of betting, from pricing up a book and identifying value through to statistical analysis of systems and assessment of money management and staking plans.

If you're new to this, though, this is the perfect place to start learning and we are ready to answer any questions you may have in the Paradise Forum.

"We'll always be working the angles, playing the percentages, finding any way we can to get an edge."

Betting is a joy to us as well as a calling - we love the highs and lows, the scandal, the intrigue, the sheer insanity of what happens when you put your money where your mouth is.

We love the intellectual challenge of taking on the sportsbooks - this is what motivates us. We'll always be working the angles, playing the percentages, finding any way we can to get an edge.

The chances are you're here because you heard about Paradise Chat - that near-mythical virtual hangout for professional gamblers, exchange owners, bon viveurs and raconteurs that quickly became a legend in the online gambling community. The place where high science and low comedy are the order of the day and newbies are welcome to lurk in silent wonder or join in the fun as they please.

Well, you're in luck because Paradise Chat is back upon a new improved platform so expect further late-night gabbery on what's hot and what's not in the world of gambling. All that's required is registration at our forum which takes just two shakes of a pair of casino dice.

"You'll find interviews with pro gamblers, analysis from staking plan experts, the latest odds, guides to developing your own rating systems..."

We invite you to join us in taking a shrewdie approach to the games of chance. Read our newsletters and betting theory material and join us in discussion on the forum.

Paradise enjoys a unique relationship with Back and Lay betting exchange - we've all been known to take advantage of the flat rate 1% commission and encourage Paradise users to do likewise.

You'll find reviews of betting websites, interviews with pro gamblers, articles from betting exchange owners, priceless analysis from staking plan experts, the latest football odds, a guide to developing your own sports rating systems and a devastating critique of traditional meth ods of jockey assessment.

All this and much more awaits you in Paradise.

Enjoy your stay and happy hunting.
