11. It makes pc payers seethe like ashley cole when he only got 55k a week
That's because we're not winning their money.
The more we win the more they get from us.

..as for 55k a week. I'm happy with that a year..and that's from the HS and poker too.
The idea that all PC payers are winning hundreds of thousands a year is just nonsense.

12. A very reliable site these days with outages at a minimum (touch wood)
I haven't played much on here since the 'upgrade'
I have been today though, but wish i hadn't bothered :(
As fpr the PC. I'm sure there are people on specials who win a couple of thousand a year, or less and end up paying now, thanks to the changes they made last year

My post was in relation to noodles, and the comments about reliable site with outages at a minium!
Surely 1. Fast pics would count for nowt without Betfair
By enabling Mug Gamblers to lose in more intelligent creative ways it allows them to retain a bit of self esteem while losing all their money.
yeah
you can lose money as a 'sports trader' rather than 'gambling addict'

I started eating into my PC allowance after a lifetime P&L of less than 2,000. They don't advertise that though.
However, they are the best. For now.

Where do you get this notion from?
It's the most unreliable site I use, and I use some real crap.

Thats not my experience but I cant speak for anyone else obviously.
The BF site is very reliable. Although it crashes most browsers on a regular basis (Chrome being the exception).
11. absence of fawning lickspittles in its customer base.
no, wait.
no, wait.
It was an experiment, I staked my life on no one on here having a good word to say about Betfair.

true coachbuster.
tbf, though, one thing that has improved is site stability. the regular saturday kick-off time crash seems to have taken a back seat of late.

I staked my life on staff member noodles saying how wonderfull betfair were, problems was that no-one would even offer 1.01 on that 
Suppose I can't blame them really.

I asked for 1.01 that the number one complaint against betfair would be people objecting to being charged less of their profits in commission than all other winners because they think they should be paying much, much less than them. No one would lay me. Suppose I can't blame them really.
15.You can spout the same old on the forum day after day after day and never have to place a wager.
Don't worry, you're not alone. Probably 95% of posters on pc calimero threads are guilty of spewing the same old whinging sh1te yet have never placed a real bet on betfair.
