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.

if no wickets in the next 25 mins before tea then the draw price will be 1.1 or thereabouts - been a cracking day to trade!

Pietersen's wicket was costly for England.
Draw back bet currently flat. Thinking about laying the draw in case Pakistan get another wicket. If they do it should run a mile.

if you mean 22 as in overs - that is the official number but no more than 30 mins play left beacuse of the light - be lucky to get 5 more in if a couple of wickets do fall

You are right - they have just said about 21 overs
'that's not going to be possible'!

Yessssss!
Took a pure and utter gamble at 1.7s on the draw during the carnage and has paid off handsomely but minus many heartbeats!

Geraint Jones and Giles have played some superb innings for England in recent years bearing in mind they are not really top order batsmen. Good example today.

Mines a healthy enough profit that I can wait for it :-) Not planning on trading the horses this afternoon - off to a furniture auction

Steve.......What a coincidence! I hope you're not buying my furniture. As you already know our house sale is about to go through any day and we have to be out in the next 2 wks. Had the auctioneers around this morning to take away 2 pieces of old furniture that we need to get rid off. If you see 2 pieces of crap, just make sure you bid as much as possible...LOL
Hope everyone on here has done well on the cricket.
