"What is going on" is the regular event of betfair saying they'll show a game in play, then they don't....

Unfortunately due to technical difficulties beyond our control we have been unable to obtain a feed in order to offer this match in-play.

We will re-open all markets during the half time interval, except those which have been unconditionally determined, with all bets (including keep bets) cancelled to enable positions to be traded.

Apologies for any inconvenience this may cause.

The familiar message..
Report Handy Andy • November 8, 2009 8:40 PM GMT
In cases such as these where the market remains suspended it usually opens at half time so that liabilities can be traded out,

Strange how "bet .... days in the year" can show it in play, surely THEY managed to get a feed?

Of course you can't lay on that and my maths tonight to attempt laying off by betting.. and it'd surely end in tears anyway..

1-0
Report Just Checking • November 8, 2009 9:01 PM GMT
1-0. I'd like to thank betfair, from the bottom of my heart, for yet another 'live in play' disaster to add to their very long list of mess ups in this area, and for by the looks of things costing me a pile of quid.

But I don't mind.

I'd write an email to them to complain but I'd just get stock response, and lets face it : they don't seem to care or they'd do something about it?

I'm tempted to start a list of matches they do this on .. it's only a % of them that get reported on service.

Not angry. Oh no!

sorry m8 but for me the 1-0 has been positive. Swings and roundabouts!

Half Time and still suspended!
Report Just Checking • November 8, 2009 9:10 PM GMT
It is now of course half time, but is still suspended.

Will they actually unsuspend?

I've seen them forget OR do it for a shockingly small time. :(

No feed is a plausible excuse. What is excuse for being suspended now?

.... Still not angry! Honest!

I'm double angry as I'd forgot I'd put a bet on as I thought I'd cancelled them for this match as I'm knackered and wanted to veg in front of die hard.

THEN to my horror I saw it in matched bets, and went to lay it off.

But of course I couldn't, as it's another 'betfair in play' special..

Still suspended I see.. There is NO excuse for that.

Yip. They've done that before. Or It might unsuspend for like 30 seconds or something so nobody has a chance to do anything..

would have won shedloads if was properly in play
Report Just Checking • November 8, 2009 9:47 PM GMT
I need to read up on how to do the maths to "lay off" a 3 option market by betting on the OTHER options. BetDaysInYear still allowed betting in play (which raises the very big question as to why betfair couldn't). Theoretically I COULD have mitigated the loss before the goal but my hung over mind shirked attempting the maths, it's trickier than you'd think.

2 way market easy enough of course..
