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.

the barca game turned into a farce - thankfully i worked out what was happening early enough and managed to lay barca from 4s and kept laying - if barca had tried to score in the last couple of minutes id have been in a lot of trouble lol

The odds for tomorrows mathches are still moving around quite a bit. There are a lot of price errors out there as nobody can seem to price the market up properly. I suggesting drifting around the bookies to arb the differences. I nipped onto Bet direct and could indentify a couple of arbs in a few minutes.

Will be an interesting day.

Just taking another look at how the odds for the bottom four are compared to when i layed earlier in the week:

Saints, laid at 2.38 currently 2.7
Palace, laid at 2.34 currently 2.54
Norwich, laid at 2.34 currently 2.58
W Brom, laid at 1.69 currently 1.64

So all of the away sides have drifted approx 20 points, W Brom have shortened approx 5 points so overall currently nicely in profit.

Decision time - do i close out now, just before kick off or allow to go into running??

Going to back tottenham at home to balckburn (its about money not emotion) - they need a big win for any chance of european qualification and arsenal at 1.9 look a big price depending on the team wenger puts out - henry will definitely play part/all the game, campbell likely to play all the game and ljundberg set to return for part/all of game but i dare say he may rest viera/pires/bergkamp

Arsenal

no henry/pires, rest all play

United putting out a pretty strong side, Rooney and Van Nistelroy both start, no Scholes, Keane, Ronaldo, Heinze

Portsmouth look very weak vs west brom - no lua lua, yakubu, stone

Just been listening to radio whilst working on the garden. Some tense moments for teams on the tightrope!

Fundy, Well done if you're still hanging onto to your lays. You should be laughing now!

Greened up on the Norwich and Palace games, covered my stake on the WBA game - still running on the saints (will close out if other results mean they need to win - a draw keeps them up currently). Didnt back either tottenham or arsenal onthe sides theyve picked and neither have drifted enough for me to get interested. tottenham will now know that boro are winning so may not be up for the second half

So much for it being in norwichs hands - theyve now jammed the door wide open for the other 3 sides

Now green on all the games - not looking good for scrip/cunningham

They think its all over....it is now

Well saints are down but I just landed the most amazing bet ever at combined odds of over 500-1. See further up the thread, it is one of biggest ever.

Just got back home, off down the pub to contemplate but also celebrate. I am in officially freaked out mode. Almost got my head panned in by the nearby Southampton fans who thought I was the devil.

The second of two threads.

Script, Re Post 2637 time to change your login ID to Marty-Mcfly.

Can you dream before next week the winner of the FA Cup and time of the winning score. (Shouldn't be too hard as you've done this before) Then can I have the name of the winning horse in this years Derby and while you at it, this years eurovision winner and next 6 lotto numbers. :-)

Many thanks and sweet dreams.

LOL! Why do you think I run a Lottery syndicate as well?

Scant reward for seeing Southampton go down. But at least I did my bit to attempt to avert the inevitable. My voice is pretty much gone.
