how to bet less than £2 on betfair

all explained there
Report Prince of Betfair • December 18, 2009 12:25 AM GMT
1.Bet £2 at odds that won't be matched

2.Go to My Bets and now change the stake to £2.50 at the same larger odds that won't be matched.

3.Go back to My Bets and delete the £2 bet you made, this will leave a 50p bet up also. ~Now just change the odds of the 50p bet to the correct odds and you will get matched with a 50p bet.

If you haven't got more than £2 it isn't possible.

sorry about the caps

Why would anyone want to go below the £2 limit? Surely reaching the point where it is a waste of time? (I'm aware of to 1p to no liability issue).

I had someone match 2p of a lay that I had put up leaving me with a liability of 9p should the selection have lost. I collected 2p. W**ker.

Dave,

You might want to do that if you are laying at big odds. A £2 lay at 1000.0 absorbs £1,998 and that could absorb more available funds than some would want.

It's illegal.

Benjy.....it is possible to place a sub £2 back bet!
Report Aunty Post • December 18, 2009 1:56 PM GMT
.......with a bank of under £2.00
Report Jimbo747 • December 18, 2009 2:09 PM GMT
No. Canny be done.

You'd need to lay something under evens first, then hope the price rises so your bank + profit is greater than £2, then do the trick.
Report Aunty Post • December 18, 2009 2:25 PM GMT
Sorry Jimbo but there are definitely times when it can be done!
Report Jimbo747 • December 18, 2009 2:31 PM GMT
How then without laying first?
