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.

Morning woodie
still doesnt make sense on the basis that Warnock doesnt meet Pompey till today. have cleared all my red off my board, big winners for me are McLeish/Burley and Warnock a small winner
Cricket been strange this morning, laid the draw at 2.02 and still happy with the position though would like another wicket before lunch and then the new ball to do some damage afterwards. Looks as though Inzy will bat though will require an injection to do so

very hard going but have had a free run from my draw lay so cant complain - new ball after lunch is vital - no wickets in 10 mins and watch the draw tumble

Just come out at 2.12 but will go back in again after lunch, but only with a 10 over view if no wickets fall

Not looking good - England got about an hour and a half to salvage any chance of staying in this series

Morning guys,
Wasn't too well for some reason last night so missed all the footy action. Really annoyed too cos I was convinced Wigan would beat Newcastle and the odds were fantastic. 3.55 if I remember rightly.
Sods law.
Hope the crickets going well for you two. I'm out. Haven't a clue wht's going on so I'll leave it to you.

Pakistan strongly in control and the draw price lengthening - surely it wont shorten with a wicket so looks a free lay until England bat?

Series over - now a straight bet between Pakistan and Draw in this match - looks like England will have to bat 100-110 overs for it to be a draw
spread on pakn runs looking healthy :-)

Personally, I didn't expect Warnock to leave Sheff U. Why join a sinking ship?
Steve...Nice bit of trading
I see both HR and AM odds have shortened considerably. I never managed to jump in on this but still on the cricket with money on the draw.

Alright lads.
Tell you what Fundy-was bloody lucky with the Blackburn Charton game! Outrageous.
This Portsmouth scenario is messing with my head! I still cant see why HR would head back there after his leaving! Although it is looking more likely.....

Ive been on this market as much as the cricket since 5 this morning lol.
Heres a far out theory, Redknapp left Pompey against the fans wishes, he then succeeds in getting the local rivals relegated, the chairman realises he's got it wrong and to get the fans back on side offers him the job back, Redknapp comes back and keeps them up and becomes a hero (if they go down he takes the money and retires!) - either that or Mandaric/Redknap are in collusion and skinning everyone on betfair :-)
Have to remember McLeish is only at Rangers until they are out of Europe, which could be mid week but as yet, as reported to the public, none of the remaining candidates have been given permission to talk to Pompey
Redknap price too short but its there for a reason i think - am going to try not to trade it anymore and will be delighted if McLeish gets the job :-)

I'm looking at Ceefax 303 where Warnock says he's staying at SU - but you can still lay him at 80!
