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.

Doc, in much the same way as you had it done, but nowadays he would probably also put in a stent to keep the artery clear for longer.

Is anyone else getting a message in italian from Betfair when trying to logon to the website and also another to change my password? I can't even login via betangel as betfair is returning an error of 'messages'.

I'm loathe to accept I've read a message I don't understand. If I were to guess, I think betfair is asking me to change my password to a length of 8-20 chars (its currently 7). Or should I be asking this in 'Ask Kayak' ;~)

i had an email saying that i would be asked to change my password in the next week but as yet havent had the request when i log in

Cheers Fundy
I ended up taking a 'flyer' and increased my password length and I'm in. It was either that or miss the Arsenal game :~)
When your turn comes, below is what you can expect lol.

Betfair are asking everybody with insecure passwords to change them.

1.01 there is a squirrel joke in the Sun tomorrow.

"Arsenal caught cheating playing 12 on the pitch" ;~)

Security shock as Sun man gets on pitch


A good result though would have liked a second goal. Any away goal will see us through

Villareal proved a hard nut to crack!!!

I have the same
Although logged into Betfair ok

Huge gamble on Our Susie in the 2.20 at Wolverhampton

well beaten into 3rd

Commentator struggled badly with the horse called Hucking Hot lol

Stewards at Folkestone have thrown out a winner traded at 1.01 in running

On all accounts the horse that finished 2nd but placed first by the stewards was owned by none other than Sir Thomas Pilkington - who just happens to be a Jockey Club Steward - and who says racing is corrupt lol

fundy what also happended about 30 secs from the market being suspended the 2nd fav had all the money taken out so someone had the word before they could close the market.

Woodie

betfair should suspend before the result is known - it cant be that difficult to get an agreement from the racetracks to be notified 10 secs before the announcement, the result is announced on track before betfair suspend currently - some times by more than a few secs hence the winner is backed down to 1.01

Bit worried about Arsenal tonite, not happy with the approach which appears to be happy with 0-0. Reyes and/or Ljundberg need to give Clichy more cover and someone has got to give us another outlet rather than Henry. Ljundberg seems to not knowe where he's supposed to be playing and hence not contibuting to attack or defence, would much rather see Pires on in that position personally.

Still, 45 minutes to Paris (or could it be 75 mins or even worse for my nerves penalties)

We got lucky, dont agree with the tactics but were in the final :-) thought the penalty was a joke but Jens Lehman a hero

Hi all

Only my 2nd post here :)

Over the last couple of days ive been really having a good look at these programs from betfair. Arguably im lazy but I havent been able to get through hardly any of this thread lol so was looking for someone who could maybe give me a summary (someone whos been here from the start) and if anyone could answer these questions.

Who has bought betangel?

What stakes do you bet?

Would you recommend it?

Is it easy to use?

Sorry for all the questions but I want to make sure before buying
