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.

Draw now out to 2.26/2.28. Happy to be a layer though price looks closer to fair value now. Would still expect this price to fall quite quickly if no more than 1 wicket in first hour and am looking to lay at anything less than 2.0

Value appear to be with England rather than Pakistan though will wait for the toss - will be looking to keep the side who win the toss and bat first on side

Worth keeping an eye on the difference between test match end - Day five evening and the overall draw price

Pakistan have won the toss and will bat

John

you still with us?

Pakistan price shortened, Engalnd drifted to 4.7, draw looks about right at 2.28 - am going to watch first few overs but gonna be an uphill task for England batting second/last on this

backed england at 4.7 - over reaction to the toss

Last 21 test matches of England in Pakistan - the side batting first have not won any!!!

Lay pakistan at 2.98?

Pakistan team: Salman Butt, Shoaib Malik, Younis Khan, *Inzamam-ul-
Haq, Mohammad Yousuf, Hasan Raza, +Kamran Akmal, Shabbir Ahmed,
Danish Kaneria, Mohammad Sami, Shoaib Akhtar.
England team: *ME Trescothick, AJ Strauss, IR Bell, KP Pietersen,
PD Collingwood, A Flintoff, +GO Jones, AF Giles, SD Udal, MJ
Hoggard, SJ Harmison

Out of the England bet and heavy onto the draw - pitch looks flat, low and slow - should be a lot of runs but quite slowly scored

Thanks Steve and John for another great night out. Couldn't stay up for the cricket as crashed out as soon as my head hit the pillow.

Just been checking the cricket and Pakistan are 186-5 having just lost a few quick wickets after tea.

Hi guys

Had a nice surprise when i got up, England had got a few wickets. Having laid off my draw back, I only got a small part of my draw lay filled (some at 1.85 some at 1.8) but still nicely in profit.

Just having a look at this afternoons prices:

Rugby Union:
England look way to short against the Aussies for me. Should be a tight game but recently England have found a nack of losing these and im going to back the Aussies with a view to laying off
All Blacks should be way too good for Ireland despite changing their whole XV and leaving Carter and Umanga in the stands but with the weather forecast poor 1.1 on the match odds is not a viable option - will wait to see how the weather is before looking to trade the handicap markets

Rugby League
Surprised GB are favs to beat Kiwis having lost to them 2 weeks ago and will be trading keeping the Kiwis on side

Havent looked at the footie yet but will in a few minutes

fundy not sure about r/u eng v aus both are in dire form it might come down to who wants it most

Two points Woodie - the Aussies last 6 games have all been against much better sides than this current England one and also the England side havent played together for a while and likely to be rusty

fundy first 2 mins look grim for england look poor

Woodie - im enjoying my 2.66 so far :-)

Green at 1.9 - will come back for more

are you laying of if so what price are you looking at

Kiwis looking good to cover the 16.5 point hcap wih an early try

Aussie scrum looks awful
