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.

I think it is on a rolling 30-day basis - so you have to capture it at least once a month to maintain a full record.
Note also that the URL ending with ...Record=0 can be changed to ...Record=20 etc. to get the extended data beyond the number of records on the first page of their listing (and =30, etc.)

Tempted to lay the under 1.5 goals but 4.5 is a bit dear even in this company

Brazil price shortened 11 ticks from 1.6 to 1.49 for a Ronaldinho free kick on edge of box - unbelievable over reaction lol

I didnt catch the first half but I hear that it was a pretty miserable performance.
If it remains like this after 15-20mins get ready for the mother of all draw collapses!

T&T were unlucky not to score just before ht bak , Terry just managed to clear it off line.

I got a huge lay in on Eng just before KO but had to get out so that I could rush back home.
Wish I'd never bothered now!

Just layed over 2.5 as terribly short and with 30mins to go. Will green up if a goal comes but will get out with little risk later in the game if none

I have met Peter Webb, a very nice guy and he seems to be a very shrewd man, I am surprised he has had to resort to writing books , but we all go through bad patches.
