Still not working, went to lay fulham at 2.32, just before the goal went in, thinking, that is a ridicously short price for a side that can't score a goal.

Best not get a bet on, lads, cos it'll crash and there'll be no laying-off. Unless you don't intend to lay off, of course, each to their own

probably, but if Burnley get a second they'll pay out early, would be a bit of compensation at least. we'll see.

Just as I speak, at least I've won 12 quid at the bookies, if not on here.

Des Pond, money saved then, as Fulham won't be scoring 2 goals in 1 game

best to be cautious, I think this happened to me during a game last week, although nobody else seemed to be affected, which would suggest it could easily happen again.

Im asking myself, is this the time to finnally drop betfair. I cant just with live the fact being caught in the middle of a trade and without any chance to get out. F*** you betfair.

cheers, cricketnut. I think they pay out early if your team goes 2 up. Cool

are bettdak any better, though? consensus seems to be that liquidity is poor. but if enough people defect it could improve .

don't forget you can lay off using the sportsbook
By:
gg123
When: 10 May 21 20:57
@Giuseppe - I have in fact done, what you advice. There is unfortunately an amount that I set on hold inplay and that I cant remove. So only the part not on hold I have arbed at the sportsbook.
By:
Des Pond
When: 10 May 21 21:00
arbing is all very well, but you have to cover alternative scores at poor prices, It's nowhere near as effective as laying off after the price has dropped
By:
Des Pond
When: 10 May 21 21:04
if you hedge 0-1, 1-1 and 1-0 to cover your 0-0, you could end up losing even more if it goes 0-2 or 0-3 or any other score.

it was back for a second, I was just about to readjust when they supended it again. Sad

Don't go there, Giuseppe, for your own good, unless you don't intend to arb, in which case you've got nothing to lose.

Des, give it up, mate, and keep your blood pressure sensible. You know enough to know there will be thousands of betting opportunities when the machine is fixed. Cool it (for your own good)
By:

yes, number9, you are right.

Good man. Earlier tonight I had a bet I was ready to close when the site crashed. It never came back until the match was over, in this particular case I got lucky, but I know exactly how you're feeling once you've put a bet on and can't organise it. But don't, now, think of a new bet.
By:
Des Pond
When: 10 May 21 21:21
Only a small amount in my case, but there must be some punters with much larger amounts that they can see diappearing before their eyes, unable to do anything about it.

True Des but nothing we can do for them.

EPL should make relegation clauses compulsory in all contracts, saves the need for parachute payments which are incredibly disruptive of Championship club finances.

Wow! I just thought of that, and the more I think about it the better it gets! (pats own back)
