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.

15:00 at Plumpton. Favorite was never in the lead but backed at 1.01, what on earth were people thinking about. I know he got close towards the end but was never in the lead.

Be aware of massive trading opportunities now that Cheltenham is upon us. Was a very profitably period last year.

First two races have been good and nearly 1.25m traded on the first at Cheltenham so far. Have you noticed the amount of money has made the market that much more steady?

"now come on chilling place"
Maybe just double your trading capital on the next race then? ;-)

All green on Chelsea even without a goal. Laid West Brom at early 20's just before the off and thanks to Chelsea strong start have decided to green up at 25's
