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.

sounds good -its in the diary

Problems with hanging still persisting I see.

what on earth happened to the price of the favourite in the 3.05 at bath

Very strange movement on it Steve.

Price went from 2.3 to 3.05 back to 1.97 in the space of about 8 minutes!!!

caught it on the way up, got caught out hugely by the turn then got a bit more on the way down to leave me with a small profit - if youd caught it right its was as good as it gets - 90 ticks all in if im right

Unfortunately I didn't.

What a great race at Punchestown - how did Moscow Flyer stand up 2 from home - has he won though?

Finally beaten when he has stood up - very close photo

I've been dabbling in the snooker over the last few days and got myself totally confused over my positions. I think all is looking well but with bets on 6 of the last 8, both back and lay and in play tinkering as matches ebb and flow my brain has begun to hurt. The betfair caculations don't seem to help much as these adjust as matches finish and don't I think show position as at the conclusion of everything except for the two players where I've no money either way. Onwards and upwards into the evening sessions. :-))

kernow, you may find it easier to tick 'include settled bets...' under settings. Otherwise it removes any outcomes that have been determined as they happen, leaving you with the possible variance.

Hmm... now why didn't I see that. Thanks Kayak - an easier solution than testing my algebra and Excel skills!

Evening everyone,

On the Milan v PSV game. With Milan scoring just before half time I could green up but after watching Milan dominating I may let it ride a little longer.

Well done bakko

didnt think 1.5 was much of a price considering its a champs league semi and what happened at this stage last yr

took a chance on West Brom (with a hedge on 0-0) all nice and green now.

Thanks Fundy

I got into the game late and managed to get 1.67. Then Milan scored 5mins later after which I green up. Easiest 20mins work for a long while.

More beer money for next week!
