A price can become completely rancid 10 seconds after placing a bet let alone 30 seconds. Have noticed it at several bookmakers. Would have thought 5-10 second max should be the law for accepting or declining an in running bet.

You'd be mad in the head to bet them in-running without a pre-agreed timescale.
Slow count, we used to call it when I was a betting shop manager - now it's the bookies that do it and not the punters. |

Obviously if the gambling commission gave a f--k about anything other than money laundering and gambling addicts they would ban this practice.

"around a 5 second delay"
It shouldn't be "around" anything - they should specify an exact number. |

The bets will probably have to be agreed by the traders hence the time. They should then offer the customer 5 seconds to accept
the bet once ok'd by the trader. |

...and 5 seconds for the trader to accept the punter's acceptance...

Just tried out a new bookmaker, placed a small sports bet at 2/1 and got accepted a minute later (when it was 4/1 on their site). Surely that's against the law.

Anyone remember Ladblokes in running prices on horse racing bout 8 or 9 years ago? ... an absolute bats**t crazy stevie wonder at the controls licence to print money ... while your account lasted, which wasn't very long admittedly but made a smallish fortune in a couple of weeks all the same.
Happy days! |
