Reviewing my thread (£600 Million at risk - answers to questions required) I was suddenly struck by the following posted by "nearly" at 17:48:

This seems to be a straight cut and paste from the email he/she received from Betfair notifying him/her of the voiding.
Looking at the time of the bets and the Odds Matched there is an obvious question in my mind:
Why are the odds matched not at 29.00? Given best execution guaranteed by Betfair why has he/she been matched below the 29.00 that was clearly available at this time?
Before I jump to wild conclusions can someone explain what am I missing here.
