minion 29 Posted February 15, 2011 Report Share Posted February 15, 2011 After reading the thread on the £10,000 offer for the dog it got me thinking about the value of matches. What sort of money would the guys run for? Was there a minimum wager or is there an average? I take it it needs to be a decent value to make it worth the traveling etc. I have never owned a match dog but would love to have one I felt was good enough to have a wager on. I have a pup from CN at the moment that is going to be puerley a day dog and I am hoping she is good enough that I can have a few matches with her but only time will tell. Whats the biggest sum of money you have herd has been run for? Must be really exiting to be involved in but I can imagine my wifes face if I told her I lost £1000 because the dog didn't win ha ha.

Even if it was £500 a time thats crazy money to win from a dog. Must be great. I supose it is like any betting though, great when you win but murder when you loose. Quote Link to post

fitchet 788 Posted February 15, 2011 Report Share Posted February 15, 2011 my uncles have won and lost thousands through matching and sometimes there motors and trailers . . . but this was before the ban and like they say things are alot harder these day.i must admit id have to have alot of confidence in a dog to put the amount of money at stake they do.

leec 132 Posted February 15, 2011 Report Share Posted February 15, 2011 allways be prepared to loose no matter what your slipping, it is hard to get a sensible match now with no agg or stunts being pulled people try to coax you into running hares you dont want to,or bluff you with big money, we have had some good sport lately though we had £300 that the first hare up was away, i watched a match for 10 grand end nil nil lol, Quote Link to post
