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.

Watching the snooker - what are the guys in the audience with earpieces up to?

Schiff

they have the BBC commentary on them - personally ive got the sound turned off lol

Snooker has been unbelievable - some huge swings. With higgins 8-7 up it went to a black ball frame and they both missed easy chances - the favs on the frame betting flip flopped 7 times lol!!!

At 9-9, final frame O Sullivan went 60-0 up and traded at 1.04, missed and then Higgins cleared up - unbelievable snooker and a hell of a break under pressure from Higgins

Federer been taken to a 5th set decider by Haas with over 1m traded at 1.01

Wished I'd traded at 1.01...Laying, of course!

Haas has already beaten Fed 2 weeks ago so the final set should be very interesting

2-1 Fed and 2 break points

Unreal game between Senegal and Zimbabwe

Senegal were 1.5 just before kick off and traded down to 1.3 in the first half. At half time, it is 0-0 and they are back at 1.5

To say Senegal should be at least 4-0 is an understatement, they have had a perfectly good goal disallowed, missed 2 open goals from a yard, hit the post and spurned a handful of other good chances.

The market obviously reacted to correct what was clearly an incorrect starting price. I have currently scalped 12 ticks and want to lump on Senegal but will prob drip some money in during the second half

Ps if anyone else is watching On Eurosport - what the f*** is Fashanu wearing lol
