Bookie Bans Smoking

A Welsh bookmaker has banned punters from smoking in it's highstreet betting shop in Gorseinon, near Swansea.

Bookmaker Philip Taylor decided to ban smokers after a shop refit. He is hoping the smoking ban will encourage non-smokers to bet at his shop.

Taylor said :: "It's a bit of a gamble because a lot of our customers smoke and having a cigarette as you place a bet is part of the culture."

Gamblog Comment: Smoking and betting go hand in hand don't they? Unless of course, you place your wagers in an online bookie.
