According to my ditz-to-English dictionary, the translation of your latest yarn is that you were once backed off from an online sportsbook (not Bet365), and that back-off was subsequently rescinded.
Is that an accurate summary of your circuitous answer to the operative question?
You don't seem to grasp the fundamentals, coach. Sports books rarely "back off" someone. They prefer to put stringent limits on them. So if a famous online sports book (like Pinnacle, for example) limits your golf future to $1.50, is that being "backed off?" Technically, and I know you love technically, the answer is no.
Second, whether something is a "yarn" is largely in the eye of the reader. If a reply of roughly 150 words is considered "rambling," and whether such a story is "implausible," -- the words in quotes come from dictionary definitions of the word yarn -- is something that only a reader can decide.
Third, again, whether someone is "backed off" has more to do with the profile of what they are doing, not whether they have won or lost. For example....you know what, I'll save examples for a podcast.
Thanks again, coach, for your time. I'm trying to limit my responses to 150 words so you don't find them onerous or a "yarn."
