It goes like this if you fall in these bettor group types

recreational punter.....both the same for comm s charges at start of sign-up and when reward points are earned.

small profit margin gambler.....similar but slightly better odds on BF but a 20% premium charge may inhibit your bank growth after you meet the conditions on BF but you can attain a much greater stake size ceiling on BF and is BDa bookies now as they have had numerous talks with a bookmakers recently and introduced the 1bet facility that makes its appeal to a buy-out by a bookmaker more likely in near future in my opinion and that of the press recently.

Big profit margin gambler.....Well if your maxing your matched volumes even after the new premium charge of 60% you can make more expected return on BF as there liquidity is much better
and keeps growing every year.

As a summary BD is OK but not as near as many markets as BF and BD in-play betting is very poor
My advice is what ever you do, use Exchanges and try not to use bookmakers as they are counter-productive for winners.

Try using both and take it from there.

its a catch22 system

If everyone does what is best for themselves, with few exceptions, everybody stays here and then everybody is worse off. 

It's a bit like the gameshow Golden Balls.

The same applies to the UK Economy.  If everyone did what was best for themselves the country would be in a dire state.  Thankfully that is not the case

In regards your statement concerning recreational punters(or indeed any punter)is slightly inaccurate,correct with bfairs starting commission ie 5% but bdaqs starting commission is 2.5% at least until next year.

A company cant provide the best service and most products choice by charging the least, its a case of you get what you pay for.

Where betfair's bloated site is concerned, never have so many paid so much for facilities used by so few.

well im not too happy with bfs constant interuptions in service and inplay markets.last nite i had laid the draw in a game and it went suspended.the score was 2-0.i wanted to get out to a profit but couldnt do so.it ended up 2-2 thus costing me a lot of money..does this happen at daq or is it a unique bf prob?it happens regularly as far a si can see?

Again the claims of provision of service is debatable in light of the last few days football market problems and numerous crashes throughout the summer in regard horseracing markets.
Only reason i posted was simply because your post was misleading (9.50) and just putting the facts up as they are at the moment.

Kavvie,sympathies there,been with the daq for around 3 months and in that time have seen 1 "crash" think it lasted around 15 mins,Don,t know the reason for these but as Feck says a bloated site mightn,t help too much.
