I've just made a huge error on a market backing wrong team on asisan handicap. Odds I put up were obviously awful considering it was wrong team. There was nothing on lay side but it was then taken. There's nothing I can do now is there to reverse it?

A little hint jonny!
Go into the ordinary match-odds market and place your counter-bet(s) there. Split the stakes over the other outcomes.
Remember, there are always more ways to bet!

What you on about mate? I said he could try to back it back at the same or near the same odds he layed the bet at or lay it near the same odds he backed it at to minimise the potential loss.

I think many people will have made a mistake backing something at wrong odds before - I have. It's best just to take a loss and move on.

Hi Yomamma, your right of course! But in this case, the asian handicap marktets are almost empty. So for limiting the losses, jonny should better split the stakes in the regular match odds market.

Appreciate the responses fella's, I just left the bet run and it lost as I thought it would. Awful feeling checking the score with this little bit of hope that it might have won. I backed a team -1 in AH market at 3.05. They were 4.3 in the match odds so I don't think there was anyway I could have got out of that bet in the match odds market. Very expensive mistake at 1k for me.

Hope you didn't lose the full 1k, you could have covered that quite easily for a smaller loss.
