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.

Well done, maybe I shouldn't have wasted my time on the England match?
I have 64 on Warwickshire if they make a dramatic comeback.

Scrip
only started with 200 capital but on the right side of 3 trades so cant complain.
The great thing i find with the cricket to trade is that the market often underprices the favourite and overprices the underdog and a high proportion of games have at least 1 if not 2/3/4 swings
game over - Knight out

Scotland only playign with Kenny Miller up front. Italy will ahve to make a real rick for Scotland to score again. However, you just never know with footy, will this be one of those surprise results?

"How much of it was yours ???"
I was backing at 1.01 and laying off Warwickshire to be over round. So lots of volume but not much margin.
