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.

Woodie
Draw price has come right in over the last 20mins so we're both looking good so far.

Agree with you but just been trying to work out the possibilitiies of the draw going tits up.
India have 9 wickets and need 254 of 44overs. An over rate of 5.7+. Highly unlikely as their current RR is only 2.48.
Eng need 9 wickets and on pitch which never went downhill also looks unlikely.
Conclusion...Easy money!!

No chance of India getting the required runs as they don't even look as though they are trying to.
9 wickets in just a little over one session when only 23 have fallen in the last 13+ sessions looks a very very long shot.
Conclusion , draw even over priced at 1.01 .... now watch them make me eat my words.

Wow what a fight, if you haven't seen it try and watch the re-run, it was incredible and worth losing money to see it!
Dil, yes took a hit, big one, couldn't get out.

Aussies made a solid if unspectaular start in the ODI vs saffers, currently 100/2 off 25 overs

India gone mad in the heat? Trying to turn the last session into an ODI?
Was nicely green but have laid the draw at 1.02

Is there something happening on the cricket?? Having a bit of fun to kill the boredom??
Eng have set a 1 day field and Ind are having a go!
Ind and Eng odds have shortened considerably.

india decided to use a couple of the tail enders to have a 20/20 style go, leaving Tendulkar and Kaif in case they need to shut up shop again
India price gone from 1000 to 18
