UK Betting (UKB)     

piston broke - 13 Feb 2004 12:18

Any of you guys into UKB...I bought into them about 7 months ago at 37p
and nice steady growth to 70p at present. My view was that even though I didnt know much about the company ( apart from the fact that they have a very good Chief Exec), internet betting is really on the up. Even though I have done well, I could have done even better with one or two others..eg Sporting Bet etc, but there is shedloads more growth in a lot of these for the future

This company has had continual growth in what is a very expanding market place...with more punters having broadband installed and wanting to 'play' from the comfort of their homes, this is a superb opportunity for a growth market. I read that someone else asked the question if UK Betting are planning a bid for BetInternet, however I doubt very much as UKB shares are also on the rise.
However they have said in a recnt press statement that they are on the acquisition trail again.

I note another good day for UKB...a very progressive company which has continually gone up since I bought at 34p about 11 months ago...these internet betting companies are really on the up as lots of punters want to play from their armchair.
There was a virus that stopped them doing much business on first day of Cheltenham due to hackers, which was a shame as the bookies made shedloads on that day and UKB were not able to.
A real go ahead company that keeps creeping up ( never a big rise at any time) and they are much safer plays than the volatile ones...anyone else got any view .It looks like buckets and piston broke are a couple of shrewd cookies with this one
