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.

Should've put some dosh where mouth was - the NW derby an abovious draw from the first whistle as we will ever get - both teams cancelling each other out! Pete, Where's that stuff you were going to fwd onto me?

A little time out there by Betfair, Don't know if anybody else noticed?

We are testing a monitor on Bet Angel that will tell you if the Betfair response time is slowing. Should come in useful IMO.

The response time is about 10 times slower than on Friday today. (From my machine at the moment at least).

scrip i have noticed it over the last few weeks it is slowing down in response time looks like to many trades are going through and the site cant cope with it hence 2 sats running they had to take site down.

What time will the course finish on the 29th. Any idea how long it will take to get to St Pancreas from Heathrow, via the tube?

pth

I'm coming by car and afterwards will be travelling back up the M1 as far as Northampton Services, if that is a help to anyone.

pth, I always over run but aim to finish 1/2 hour after the last horse race. I don't know the race card for then but guess the last race will be around 17:00-17:30

If you catch the tube to Paddington you can catch the Heathrow Express. That's by far the quickest way to get there.

Hello everyone, Scrip took Bet Angel Pro from you a couple of weeks ago, unreal, the complete dogs whatsits. Now if you can just talk to betfair and get their reliability sorted we will all be happy.

Be assured I am very regular visitor there.

Just looked at the prices of the Arsenal game - is it just me or do Arsenal look amazingly short at 1.36 (im an arsenal fan by the way!). Admittedly Everton were appalling in Europe but will surely come to Highbury and put men behind the ball - as Arsenal have proved recently they may struggle to break them down. Have to admit thought the price would have been about 1.6-1.65

fundy being a gooner you will remember they beat everton 6 or 7 nil not so long ago i thought they would be 1/4 to 1/5, 4/11 best price in the village with 365 the other 2 bookies that offered this have shorten the odds to 1/3 to 2/7

Woodie

slightly different circumstances - Everton had just guaranteed 4th place and couldnt give two hoots about the game whereas tonite i feel Moyes will have them fired up and 10 men behind the ball, Arsenal were playing well and it was like a party for Edus last home game

that said, Evertons record at Highbury is abysmal

Shows how much i know - get in big Sol

Everton are pretty damn awful at the moment it has to be said.

Good to see Neville still as cynical despite leaving manure

Can't see Beattie on the bench is he injured?

Yes he is - Ferguson the only other fit striker theyve got

see Neville has ended an Arsenal players game early illegally and not got booked - AGAIN!!!!!

They may work out by half time that rather than kicking lumps and giving away free kicks that they should try and play football (oh and mark Campbell at set pieces)

Well, backed Arsenal yesterday at 1.41 and it doesn't seem to be worth greening up. Everton are totally without any team spirit and are probably lucky to have 11 men on the field. Shows how much G Neville was protected by his better team mates at Man U, he really is a donkey and a dirty one at that.
