backing them).

I am trying to work out if you could make more by trading so forgive me for some hypothetical calculation...

500@5/4 +625/-500

or 20000 at 1.98 and lay off 1.9.

approx 1500/0

not sure if 5/4 is available.

going on holiday for a month so good luck.
Pause Switch to Standard View calling didcot. I was just wondering...

this is the biggest ramp fred ever. I have not even looked at this match, but everyone should now lay Maribor immediately Laugh
Report Platini July 28, 2010 9:29 PM BST
the 5/4 has been well and truly snaffled.

It was a silly price.

can't believe Maribor actually drifted overnight.
WTF are the layers thinking about?

Jonnyg does appear to have some problems.  Martingale on the dogs is not a good idea guys Cry
Report jonnyg July 29, 2010 12:02 PM BST
the problem which is a recent one is lack of layers on exchanges.

In previous seasons would have no problem getting 20k at 1.98 on this game.

.93             £465      £795
1.94           £2,337     £2,345
1.95           £161     £2,128
1.96                  £2,733
1.97           £54     £5,192
1.98           £56     £2,918
1.99           £90     £5,239
2.00           £842     £3,629
2.02                  £239
2.04                  £2,549
2.06                  £2,690

2.14           £394     £927
2.16           £0     £181
2.18                  £88
2.20                  £622

not sure where the price will end at ko as it is easy for market makers to move the price around in light trading.

Not good for momentum traders any more imo.

How are you doing of late Jonny? Did you suffer another heavy loss or are you just cutting down on forum time during the close season?
Report jonnyg July 29, 2010 12:32 PM BST
not doing very much buzzer at the moment.

may come back next season.

not sure at the moment.

Report buzzer July 29, 2010 12:35 PM BST
At least you have no heavy losses to report. Perhaps you just need a long break from here, finances permitting of course. If you decide to finish on here will you be looking to going back into gainful employment? That's a frightening thought Cry
Report jonnyg July 29, 2010 12:39 PM BST
no chance of gainful employment but i may have a go at being on tv where that woman helps you to get a job...

arbing is finnish, hard enough to value punt ffs..let alone getting 5k on....2k at a very hard push...is it worth it.

I can understand this because you could be just sitting at home doing nothing all day and then again if you are good enough why are you applying for a job...

yes arbing finnish but possible to make a living from tading football but much harder now.

because the arbers have been taken out it is very difficult now to predict where the market will end.

betfair should open up bookies ....and offer coupon prices..
