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.

All hail the King :-)

Fundy, good call Darkness, hope you cleaned up.

Get in the darkness - treble landed

Cloudbase

amazing it won considering how badly it jumped - traded at 34 in running - 3 horses traded at 1.05 or below in the race!!!

Good job ive had a result on the horses - the missus has just come back from the sales - looks like im back to zero on the day lol

Fundy, tried to back 30 in running but not matched, amazing race to watch,
Iwould say you've had a posative day if missus bill not greater than your
winnings lol, don't tell her though, she'll try harder next time.

Thanks cloud

been a cracking day and after her bills im still in front - now time to get back into the festive mood and have a few drinks

Did anyone see the Moscow Flier race ?

Horse in front, jockey mistook the the 1/2f post for the finishing line, stood up in his irons and celebrated, only to watch the second and third pass him for the proper post lol, and 1000 was matched for 64 about the second!!!

Bloody hell Steve, must have got a right bollocking from the Owners, :-)

Have u had a go at the darts. Jeez the odds don't half move! Thought I'd backed a winner last night (whilst pissed) at thin odds, only to watch the other guy come right back. Ended up going to a sudden death play off. Fortunately my guy won but only after they both missed loads of doubles!!

i saw the game you mean, yes made a few quid but tend to trade out as soon as the odds go my way as the prices can whipsaw amazingly

good to see Im running in the 2.00 at Wetherby - only concern is the ground, but looks a big price to me and having a small punt

never travelled on the ground

Not doing the nags at the moment Steve, I've let my BetAngel Pro subscription lapse until I'm back from work next year. I think racing is one of those sports where u need every tool available, so I'm just sticking to footy mainly.

PTH

fair enough, the horse racing (along with the cricket) is my bread and butter - i still cant make as consistent profits from the footie so am doing much less on it currently

agree with the racing that having the software is key

By the way Phil Taylor (darts) is currently at 1.02/1.03 for his second round match today. I know he's good, but if he gets off to a bad start, who knows what may happen? Got to be worth laying (and I have!).

pth

PTH

he went off 1.02 in the first round and never got any bigger lol

Agree anything can happen but this guy is a machine - i tend to watch his matches and if he gets out towards 1.5 then i look to back him

Steve, thanks for that, but you just never know. Small risk for a lot of potential upside. I doubt very much he will get beaten, but a bit of movement in the odds would be nice!

PTH

if you can lay of at 1.2/1.3 then its a cracking trade - good luck

trading profit onto World Wide Web in the Welsh National

PTH

is the game this evening?

think its at 9 O'clock tonight, assuming they stick to the time table

thanks pth

world wide web beaten after 1 circuit

An interesting discussion on the forum:

Worth noting that Bridgewater Boys has failed to place on the four previous occasions it has been 3/1 or shorter.

8to1RiverKeen 27 Dec 15:13

are you implying that the game is bent quito?

Quito 27 Dec 15:13

The horse doesnt know his price River Keen. The farrier and the tack man may do however.

I subsequently laid at 2.58 and greened at 3.6 :-)
