Rs1 is correct. It's impossible to have a back keep bet @ 1.25 if the kickoff price was higher.
Anyone saying otherwise doesn't understand the basic of keep bets.

I agree with Eddie, a lay bet is quite possible but not a back bet.

Rs1,

We've been through this on a previous thread.

Trevh is right. I trade every single big football match there is, and I have NEVER seen the phenomenon you are referring to.

If you are so convinced it occurs, why don't you make a video of it and post in on here.

Rsi, I think you are just using a slower inteface. By the time the market reopens on your screen, bets have been fired in several seconds ago.

Surely you are the one who has a problem. Normal people would go the company with which they have a grievance and try and get it sorted that way.

for those of you dont no RS1.. here is a few facts from him. He once came on the forum a couple of months ago asking people who to cancel and unmatched bet in play because he accidentally layed 300/1 instead of 30/1. This thread was legendary, and it went on for hours and days. People tried to explain to him how to cancel it but he still wouldnt understand..... eventually everyone had enough and just started taking the p1ss out of him.... so like any embarassed forumite he cried to betfair who then had the thread removed.

someone actually told me that betfair HQ actually laughed soo much at the thread when they removed it, they printed it out and stuck copies all over the office to cheer people up when they are having a bad day

And for those who prefer sensible answers to conspiracy theories, how about this one?

The 'back' prices RS1 sees immediately after a suspension are other punters' unmatched 'keep' lay bets.

The 'lay' prices he sees at the same time are the implied lay prices generated by the cross-matcher (since laying Man U is like backing Chelsea and the Draw in the right proportions, etc).

Reasonable?

He tried to claim he had more money than inner city sumo .. inner city posted 330k .
The Special one chickened out like a little bi tch and claimed he'd catch up ... but didn't show his bank
he also thinks he has a range rover and a  ferrari fund ...has 9 user names that he uses to gang up on people

only game he good at is lying and getting a high post count

23000  posts since march and god knows how many on other usernames
racking up 5 posts an hour 24 hours a day ... when does this guy go out ?!

he's told he was muslim .... which could explain something ...


2001 uk Census and office of national statistics

'Muslims had the highest rate of unemployment  3 times higher than christian counterparts'

THE INTERESTING ONE

'Muslim Men and women had the highest rates of disability 24 percent men and 21 percent of women '

almost 31 percent had no qualifications  highest of any group

In order to have a lower than kickoff price crossmatching back bet derived from other lay bets there would have to be keep lay bets with higher than kickoff prices on the other two outcomes, and that is not possible as they would have been matched pre kickoff.

Here is another intresting fact.... RS1 has told us he is a SIKH. As they are minority in the world stats for 'Sikhs' will not have any validity as the sample for 'Sikhs' to any other religion would show inconsistency due to Muslims outnumbering 'Sikhs' by about 100 times or more. 25 Million Sikhs in the wolrd... 2 Billion Muslims... Says alot really. Wink

it means your an idiot

ps the small amount of sikhs kicked out the all the muslims out of india ... says  a lot

Intresting... that is why 75% of the 25 million sikhs live in India and Yet the 1.6 Billion Muslims are spread all over the world.... Silly

u seem to think that having more numbers mean something ...

sikhsim is a new  religion  ...

there are 0.5 billion more christians than muslims as they were around 500 years before muslims .. so what does the mean
