I'm new to Betfair...and these forums. 

Would be interested how many (or if anyone) makes a living out of just football betting on Betfair and other sites? Seems like there are plenty of games on around the world.

Seems much better than the Monday Morning slog, if you can crack it !!

Discipline,research,a bit of luck ( i suppose)and no chasing.There are so many matches on from all over the world,this makes temperament key.

I would suggest you try and find an edge and keep it too yourself!! Trading is tedious but probably the most bullet proof way of cracking it ie GO GREEN whenever you get a chance.

G Hall hit the nail in the coffin there! Go green whenever you get the chance for defo, or within minutes you could be in the red and see your stake gone well decrease and no profit to be made, going for 100 when you can take 60 or 70 can always leave you seething sure we all been there lol

it can be done, it's not impossible to win more than you lose. so this statement is false.

the only fool is stating something as a true fact when it's clearly possible to win more than you lose. i'm not adding the likelihood of it happening here am i, just stating an obvious fact that it IS possible because it is.

It can be done but it's extremely hard. It takes skill and most of all it takes discipline. Only about one in ten thousand make it i'd imagine.

Sadly i'm not one of them.

It cannot be done. The premium charge is a myth created to make us all think we can win.
Report TheInvestor2 April 13, 2012 6:50 PM BST
I've heard a rumour of a new 70% Premium Charge being introduced for those who have made more than £1 Billion.
Report dimebar8 April 13, 2012 6:51 PM BST
"Finally, a small number of customers who, in the long-term, generate very little commission compared to the amount they win will incur Premium Charges. Any customer affected by this charge will be notified in advance. Details of the Premium Charge are set out in Section 7 below."

that's a bit harsh from betfair isn't it, corporate greed.
Report modk April 13, 2012 6:57 PM BST
Nobody gets premium charged, because nobody wins. But I can see why they introduced it, its actually quite smart.

it's basically same as tax on a regualr wage... they claim 0.5% of users make it into the premium charge area

Dear K,

We are writing to inform you that last week, for the first time, you would have been required to pay Premium Charges.  However, in line with our policy for customers that incur the charge for the first time, last week's Premium Charges have been waived. The charges should appear on your account statement as both a 'Debit' and a 'Credit' of exactly the same amount.

Please be aware that in future, if your betting continues to be as successful as it has been, you may be required to pay Premium Charges.

Full details of the charge can be found in the 'Betfair Charges' section of 'About Us'. Any questions that you may have in relation to the charge should be directed to premiumcharge@betfair.com.
