How would you like to trade a market where you get large regular price swings every 10 minutes in the afternoon, seven days a week. A
market where all prices are set purely by supply and demand, few transaction costs, no middle men and you only pay commission if you win? Where you can freely act as a market maker and where you have direct market access and where you can create a spread for others to take?

Betfair has revolutionised the betting market and created an open platform for exchanging risk on sports events. This market is now viewed much more like a traditional financial risk market than an old fashioned betting market. Smart users have realised that there are huge opportunities on Betfair because they can buy and sell risk in much the same way they would in a normal financial market but without the burden of cost or the restricted access that is usually associated with traditional financial markets.

"Scrip, are you on the races today? I always find Saturdays difficult."

I tend not to do Saturdays. I am around this afternoon though testing some software. No real opinions on todays racing yet but maybe there is more "random" money over the weekend?

For Everton v ManU game later there is good value for backing ManU @ 1.8/1.81.
Odds have shortened considerably since yesterday 1.97/1.98.

Everton strikers, Beattie and Cahill are both suspended. Other strikers McFadden and Ferguson both carrying slight injuries although in squad.

Rooney set to play from start.

Set to be a potentially explosive game.

Afternoon all

good to see you all had a good day - personally got a bit of a kicking at haydock - first time ive come out down in last 7 times ive been there - been long overdue - still get a chance to get it back next week lol

An impeccable performance from the Reds. Nice profit too.

An excellent day for me so will quit whilst well ahead. Using some of today's gains to take the wife out now.

Hope everyone else has done well too.

Just got in. There's a turn up. Chelsea down 1-0. Not on the match yet.

Thank you very much to Ronnie O'Sulivan for some easy money tonight. Now if VillaReal can get an equaliser it would top a good evening.

now green on the football.

Evening all

yep - ronnie was good for some very easy money all tournament

anyone on the golf tonight - if you are 2 words of warning - firstly they are going to play another round after the current one and secondly the coverage on sky is delayed by about an hour currently!!!

A good weekend of activity. In light of the results in the FA CUP overall, I am not too dissapointed now that Southampton didn't win. It seems like is was a weekend full of surprises.

I was speaking to the these guys last week "Betting bots". I will have hold of the software soon and will be beta testing and writing a review for them. I will post here first with details of how I get on with the software and what I think.

Interesting Scrip. Look forward to your views.

I see snow is falling. I think it will drift so I suggest laying snow. If others do the same we could have a bit of a snowball effect. Anybody suggest any good covering strategies?

Not yet. But I do get your drift. As I am snowboard at the moment I will give it some thaw and ski if I can come up with something.

Scrip, LOL!

In Manchester it rains even if there's snow around the rest of the country. I'm backing rain. I'll be covered both ways if we get a "whitewash".

bakko,

where in Manchestr are you?

Harlosh,

Home is Withington, Sth Manchester. I'm presently in sunny Rochdale (work)

I'm in Urmston and Fundy in Sale. We'll have to arrange a meet one night.

Betfair night out!

Will look forward to it.

15:20 Lingfield. Any body see that? Horse was a non runner didn't start but the horse was being traded in play. Talk about total confusion.

Yes I did Scrip. I had greened up on the race but had nipped to the loo having been told it had been withdrawn. I presume money had changed hands in running so a bit of a mess to sort out.

bakko,

I'll speak to Fundy and sort something out.
