It's been around a while and jumps in front of you invisibly. But I have a feeling it doesn't know what the true odds should be. It irritates me mildly and I'm thinking of either systematically tricking it to offer bad odds with my bot, or highlighting it with a string of penny bets. Anyone else noticed its devious activity?

Investor and I were talking about this in another thread (can't remember the title, something about systems).

If the price to lay is 200 and you put a back in of 2 pounds at 190 you might see an offer come in straight after at 180 and so on

But if you put a back of 1.99 you can be first in the queue (at the cost of taking a slightly lower price). If you do this when you think you will be able to lay it off at a lower price then you've got a free bet. It used to work in the Half Time score market.

Stopped doing it ages ago because you're working for pennies and it takes time and a lot of the time you don't get matched, someone jumps in front of YOU or the price corrects itself.

Someone must have some software doing it for them now. Or it's just many people doing the same thing.


That's my guess.
