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.

Been trading the penalties, All green now. Great fun!

Man United without a trophy, Who would have guessed it.

Robbed!

Well done to Arsenal.

Harsh on Man Utd, by far the better side on the day got beat

Still, FA CUP WINNERS 2005 ARSENAL sounds good to be

Spot on bakko, but the amount of chances you had to not score was criminal - reminds me of the final we had against liverpool a few years back where we battered them and lost

We woz robbed alright.

Must be difficult for Man U fans to lose that one.

Hope no one tried to buy money on the lions rugby game tonight:

People just seem to chase money nowadays.

scrip

i laid at 1.06 but greened up far too quickly but also backed the draw at 11.0 with a few mins to go so happy (apart from the dismal performance)

There was quite a bit of chatter on the forums. All sparked off by somebody saying there was some free money on offer. ROFL!

What price did they start the evening at?

scrip

missed first 20 mins and laid them as soon as i came in and they were losing and at 1.06 - guessing they must have been 1.01/1.02 before match as they never led in the game so pre game must be the only time 1.01 can have been backed

Bakko

if youre trading the agassi match, he is injured and looks like he'll struggle to last the match

Nice and green now having laid Agassi

Bakko - this tennis lark is easy -watch until a guy goes lame and then pile in - what do i do when both players stay fit???

Would be interested if you would post your trades during the french open to try and get a better handle of how you are trading the tennis

Just backed nimenen at 1.22 half way through second game in final set, green at 1.01 after 3 rd game :-)

now glad the horses are awful to trade this pm - only reason i turned over to the tennis lol

Just watched the highlights of the sharapova game - that must have thrown up some interesting trading opportunities not to mention containing more screaming than your average porn film

PMSL

I mentioned to bak last week that I thought many players who lost the first set actually went on to win the match.

Yesterday I searched for and found a seeded player who had lost or was losing the first set to an unseeded player. His odds had drifted to 1.77 when I backed him. He very nicely went on to win.

Haven't had the chance to do any empirical research yet but will try to do so. In the meantime it may be worth keeping an eye open for such opportunities.

I suppose you are using it but this is a great site for the scores.
