Accidentally backed 3-3 in the Uzbekistan v Australia match. Was trading at 180  and I requested £230 @ 4.00

And got matched right down to 18.00

So I layed £110 @ 180 and the mental bit is that this and everything under it right down to 6.40 got matched !!

So I could have actually made a profit from the f*ck up if I'd asked for lower odds

Your link shows a blank graph?

Do you think a bot matched your lay, triggered/confused by your back mistake?

Presumably 6.4 would have been showing on the lay side when you laid at 180?

The first one was me the second was someone else.

I think when I backed everything right down to 18 there was a mad rush for the layers to green up

Strange one that. The layers of your back wouldn't ask for 6.4, they'd want to back anywhere above 18.0.

Perhaps you might have triggered a few in to thinking there was a fix on the cards, so some layers chose to red up early?

bots monitoring would have gotten confused.

Yeah I don't know why it was backed into 6.40, that must have been either a bot or 10000/1 someone else did the same thing as me in the same market at the same time.

The layers above 18.00 may have started backing slightly too low and triggered some landslide. If you look at the graph there was a period of 'normality' after my back before it went crazy again.

IF you feel like chucking a few hundred quid down the drain do it again and we'll see what happens Laugh

It was funny watching the price go right up to 700 afterwards though.

Perhaps folks stop losses triggering ?

I thought I'd bump this because the same thing has just happened in the Huracan vs Argentinos match

on 3-0 and 3-3

Here is 3-0:

And 3-3:

So always keep a lay in somewhere down there I think is the lesson !! Luckily this time I wasn;t the one giving the money away
