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.

BTW, Clijsters is carrying an injury and has defied Dr's orders to pull out of the Open. She is playing later this afternoon and odds are 1.03/1.04. This could be worth a lay at these low odds as there's always the possibility of going lame!

Lay Henman to win Wimbledon has been bet of century. Especially in the UK as it often offered at remarkably low odds.
Clijster looks interesting. You could hedge by back her to win the tournament.

Dil,
I think the last one he won was about 4 or 5 years ago somewhere in Azerbijan. I remember seeing him wear the national costume which was a sight and a half!

I see Ancic (Seeded 18)lost the first set this morning and drifted to 1.9 ish. Now looks like winning. Down to 1.06. Been out all morning otherwise would have had some of that.
Did anyone else?

Harlosh,
Another site I totally rely on is

Looks like Henman has blown it again. Can't believe he is seeded 7. Incredibly unreliable.
Wouldn't touch him with a barge pole.

Managed to trade out of a Henman losing position to a win on Horna during the last set. Phew!!
Tip of the day, Lay Henman for every tournament!

Thanks John.
I'm on Davenport/Peng game at the moment. Can't see Davenport, seeded 1, losing this.

Put my money where my mouth is now by backing Davenport at 1.96, she having lost the first set.
Bak, lets hope she turns it around for both our sakes.

If Davenport doesn't turn this around I'll be broke too

She's broken back by the looks of it. There's hope yet bak.
