Hey guys out of curiosity how did ye get in touch with harry?
I’m a gambler and love listening to Harry, great character. How he’s not working on any racing channels is a crime.
David Lowe agree!
The racing channels want mugs that tip to profit the bookmakers
Could listen to Harry all day. Great vid.
T Eusty Cheers!!
Brilliant Pod.
Harry is great value. A brilliant talker and his book is excellent. Never met him but I would love the chance to pick his brains. Thanks lads.
Only just found this podcast, subscribed after 5 minutes, its nice to see joint presenters asking clear questions and letting the guest answer without interrupting. 👍
Wonderful, Absolute Class Video. As a lifelong gambler myself, I was able to reminisce of my own experiences through your stories, especially the Bellagio one, as I did exactly the same at 10am before setting off to the airport, albeit for £1,500!!
Many thanks to you all👍
Ps.
The hooky credit card betting story Harry mentioned brought back a few memories of a good day out at Ascot a few of
Glad you enjoyed it!!
Love the pod guys! People like Harry are a dying breed. Legend!
Every gambler has great stories to tell I'm 70 and gambled all my life. All my mates used to say I was a fearless gambler and I loved hearing them say it .but as the years have gone by i realise I was a fearless mug .I worked hard and had my own business I didn't need to gamble as I had plenty and holidayed all over the world and every car i bought was brand new .I loved the excitement and all the bookies loved me .one used to give me my own teller when I visited his bookies.I still gamble to day I've lost everything as well as family and MYSELF and live in a housing association flat on my own skint.Everybody used to love to listen to my stories in the pub.I've got thousands of interesting stories with big bets in the thousands not millions like Harry .I've had the ups as well as the downs and loved it .it's my family and their families that suffered with me not giving them the attention they deserved .Yes it was easy to throw money at them and think I deserved to enjoy myself gambling after working very hard
I'm not resentful at gambling I'm resentful at myself for being a mug and having no discipline.
I've seen the gamblers come and go and 99% end up.skint .I hope Harry keeps winning he's a legend.but I wish I had been more normal and less of a mug and never gambled at all because I'm an addict with no discipline .I don't want any of my children or grandchildren to gamble and end up like me a waste of space
Ps yes I was very generous I bought the local tramps home new beds and gave thousands to charities .little did I know that one day I would be lineing up with them for a free m eal.
My fav saying is a fool and his money are soon parted,and there's no bigger fool than me
thankyou for your comment. powerful stuff. your honesty is a great strength.
Very interesting to hear what you say, I appreciate your honesty.
Fair play lad. Unfortunately your story on gambling is so much more more common than Findlays. 99% of punters lose in the long run. The other 1% i'm not even sure of.
My stories the same, I’ve gambled for the last 10 years, 16-26, I’m 26 now, I got £250 deposit to 12.5k over 3 weeks on sports bets, chased a £700 loss, and ended up losing 12.5k, plus 5k of credit cards, spent 5 years with no job paying off the 5k, it’s pure evil mate, how are you now, I’d love to hear your stories
I'm in bed and have not left it for the past three days with depression ,PLEASE DONT END UP LIKE ME , I will guarantee you 100% you will if you don't stop
Had everything and lost everything it's an illness ,
In 1989 I was Fred dones biggest winner he wanted to buy me a bottle of champagne and have his photo with me for free advertising for him in the paper ,I refused as the blokes in the pub would have been knocking at my door at all hours for a loan ,it was bad enough before that win,He got all that back plus plenty more ,PLEASE STOP NOW LIFES FOR LIVING NOT FOR GAMBLING
I WORKED HARD AND MADE PLENTY ,NO NEED TO GAMBLE BUT THE THOUGHT THAT I KNEW BETTER THAN THE BOOKIES MADE ME SELF DESTRUCT ,WITH MY FANTASY THAT I COULD WIN EASY MONEY , IM NOT ON MY OWN THERES MANY THOUSANDS OF SICK PEOPLE LIKE ME DONT ADD TO THAT NUMBER
I’ve watched this podcast a couple of times now it fascinates me how Harry has lived his life getting away from the 9-5 rat race and making a living of something he’s really passionate about.
Great this! Definitely a different perspective on gambling that you don't hear often
could have another couple more hours of this, brilliant interview.
25:40 "i would have told the geezer no but i've got 8 thanks very much" ahahaha love Harry
Great video lads really enjoyed it
We've all been there as gamblers, TOP MAN HARRY!
really ? whats the most YOU have lost on 1 bet then ?
Met Harry a couple of times a few years ago when he was in Jersey with friends of a friend of mine . Good character very entertaining.
Great vid, the bookies deserve everything Harry ever took off them! Good luck to ya mate👍👍
Haha!!
Great interview boys! Very interesting!
Thank you!
Harry's a living legend!
Really genuine guy. Hope he takes the bookies to the cleaners.
Can listen to Harry all day long. He is the guvnor
awesome vid...well done
Known Harry for many years and he is exactly as he appears, I was always a big odds/value type punter but one of the first things Harrry ever said to me was , "no one ever went broke backing odds on winners"!! The bit about Gleeson is so true.
Marvellous video lads.
Well done everyone involved really enjoyed it
Thanks Paul!
It would be amazing to get Harry back on Twitter
Any chance you boys could convince him back
@@paulbutler3469 We will try when we next get him back on
Could listen to Harry all day
Proper big time gambler, good luck to harry, great podcast boys.
New to Your channel fantastic guest someone needs to make a movie about Harry's life, subed and liked
Paulie B thanks!!
The Legend Harry Findlay
Young guy at the far end of table absolutely clueless. Was embarrassing watching him. Surprised Harry didn't ask him to leave?
my thoughts exactly.
He always stutters when he's interviewing instead of just asking a question clearly.
I'm sure he has great business skills. Just no people skills.
20 minutes into the podcast listening to a professional gambler who has made millions over decades, speaking about his experiences betting, how he managed to get an edge, the other different pro gamblers he has worked with....
"So what actually is the difference between a casino and sports betting"
Was that guy just there thinking he was some really lucky mug letting it ride on a roulette wheel for the last 30 years.
tbh i wish i was as innocent to gambling as that kid 😕
brian gleeson hahahahhahaha
Watch the bbc tv documentary on Harry in the 90's it's on TH-cam and it's great
Great interview lads I'm definitely buying the book !!
cheers!
He's totally right about live sport, there is no better entertainment
Top bloke, tells it how it is
Findlay thinks Denman was better than Arkle for anyone who thinks he knows what he's talking about. You can always spot a fool because they're the ones saying X was better than Arkle. There were two seperate handicaps prepared depending on whether arkle was running in the race or not.
I think Tom should have had a bet before he interviewed Harry. Maybe looked at horse racing a bit.
WHY IS THE CAMERA NOT ON HIM ?
Very interesting but they didn't ask him where he got his stake money from when he was "skint" which was on quite a few occassions. Did he sell a house/ borrow it off family or friends and then if he did and he lost the lot again, where did he get the next lot of stake money ?
great question!! would have been interesting to know where he was getting it. know from been a gambler myself all my life ya will always get money somewhere... borrow off Peter to pay Paul.. horrible vicious circle and a c#nt of a way to b living life
@@forgive7449 I think it's 1 of the worst addictions meself Alex.. iv bn off alcohol nearly 2 years and I know I will never drink again.. I haven't had a punt since the new year but I wouldn't have the same confidence that I won't gamble. I hope something will click with you and give ya the strength to kick the habit . I know it's hard.. harder than most people will ever realise.. but you keep trying and believe in your inner strength that you can do it💪💪💪
@@forgive7449 ye hopefully alot of people in the same boat and just get out of the dirty stinking habit. half the battle then
@@forgive7449 😰😰. have u read his book.. is all of this in it coz from all the interviews he's making out gambling is a great craic and a piece of piss.
@@forgive7449 I haven't read it.. I must get it only il b financing his gambling if I do🙈.. ya can bet (excuse the pun) his father wasn't the only 1. parents prob had to 're mortgage the house... brothers sisters ,close family members , friend all ripped off by him. don't get me wrong , we've all got loans off all them but we don't all go bragging bout how easy it wmis then. I must read it.. say it entertaining
Must of been free cash back in the day when him and lizard were cleaning up when the Asian handicaps we’re priced up wrong
8 minutes in and I've lost count how many times they've interrupted Harry. Bad interviewing.
Yeh was ridiculous no reason to on majority aswell
Should have just been Harry and Andy, that other dude not a clue and quite rude
Hi lads just wondering how ye got on touch with harry. If ye have an email address etc for him would be much appreciated
You guys still respond to comments?
Any chance of a catch up with Harry?
Will ask mate 👍🏻
@@TheLegitPodcast would be awesome to see how he is going now
Got the book after watching this and didn’t disappoint
Quite embarrassing with the scouser telling his little 'gambling stories' when they've got Harry Findlay on the podcast. Like having Mark Spitz on the podcast with a host spinning tales over his 25m swimming certificate.
Lol
Harry Findlay is a great guest could listen to him for hours, the only drawback in this podcast was the two interviews interrupting all the time , Not so much the boy in the white T-shirt , but the non-gambler who fella he spoiled the podcast
Don't let anyone with a gambling addiction watch this ...🤫
These guys are clueless. "BHA?" And they had no idea what he was talking about laying Fujiyama crest - Frankie's last of the seven.
2.5 mil of other peeps £
wrong. it was HIS money. if he had given it to YOU it would be YOUR money.
Harry is legendary. Lives life we all would love to live
Great interview bar the lad wanting to tell his stories, cringed at that
Should of interviewed their selves, wouldn’t let the man talk.
How come we only get a side on view of Harry?.
Because was feeling a bit dodgy.
whos telling storys here harry or that micky
I thought the same, get Harry on so they can tell them all their stories, fucking liberty!
Right I’ve heard Harry talk about this a few times. Saying he had fortunes on federer after All black bet. … Nadal won the 08 final …. So does he mean the Roddick final in 09. 5 sets …. I just don’t get it. He’s getting his time lines wrong which means he must be absolutely fucking addicted to action like. Love the guy but this story constantly baffles me
ffs let the man speak
Sorry, but backing odds on is for mugs. All the 'experts' acted like Paisley wouldn't get beaten at Cheltenham. Look for value.
You could of searched for value all night and not found the winner of that stayers . Bottom line is paisley had a heart condition he’s stones ahead of that lot
You can still get value at odds on if you think its longer than it should be
Brilliant show 👏
wow, he should stay away from tennis if he made rafa 25/1
Worst interview if there’s 2 blokes who could give the worst interview here it is shocking
Obviously a shocking professional gambler who hadn't a clue about what he was doing other than losing money.How not to make money gambling listen to Findlay and his kind.
@Lee Guest He has admitted he lost everything and not just financially.UK layers turned in 2019 a profit of 14.5 Billion guess who's money that used to belong to.
Jaysus christ! Could have been a great interview but for Mr Context at the end of the table - STOP INTERRUPTING FFS 🤦🏻♂️
Funny the amount of bullshit stories and jazzing the stakes from the scouse lad but sure he was trying to join in with Harry.
Don't believe what his saying all bousheet
