what a load of rubbish id say 95% of morning and afternoon bags races are well over 3k
rgptv races would be 20k on average some night races are a struggle i agree
and cant get more than a tenner on wtf is that all about you can get 200 on easy
as long as youre not playing someone elses card or something everybody wants to be on
and didnt someone say moneys tight

Panda...do you work for Betfair? Who mentioned rptv? Played the markets all day and can assure you that Sunderland was between 3k-6k, used to be 15-20 and Crayford was between 6-10k...used to be 22-30k, as i said r.i.p Betfair

do i work for betfair no do i work on here yes just put what you wrote is rubbish play every morning and some afternoons and to say only 3k gets matched and you cant bet more than a tenner is what i said rubbish but youve changed youre tune saying 3-6k at sunderland and 6-10k at crayford i dont disagree that it was better a few years back but wasnt everthing including the economy id say that most races still get on average nearly 8k moring anf afternoon and you can get 200/300 on each dog you wanna bet every race unless its the hotdog that everybody wants to be on or your playing someone elses card but to say rip betfair and the games dead is b0ll0cks imo its just picking up again

is there a more negative person on this forum than go racing he is always at it,panda is not my favourite forumite but on this occasion I do agree with her
Report go racing April 3, 2013 9:39 AM BST
Ha....yeah there is a more negative person than me...YOU! Remind me, who said RPTV would never happen.....5 nights a week now i believe? Liquidity has halved in the last year fact, not negative just a realist. Enjoy Romford and Coventry tonight,good job we all believed in it despite your doom and gloom at the time!

Actually agree with the op.PC has stopped many doing their recreational punting on here and has really killed liquidity.Even those who make it pay can still get matched only 0.1 under here over on the other site because of their cross matching between the sites and that is much better than paying PC so there is no real reason to still be betting on here unless you are a big punter and even at that you have to take well under what is on offer to get a monkey on a bags race now a days.

Betfair need to do something fast or they risk going downhill fast.Threads where it mentions the other site used to get 5-10 replies but now they get 150+ replies because alot of people are feeling the same.There is nothing worse than having a good week and finding out that Betfair have robbed you of 20-40-60% of your winnings.And those who dont pay it still dont like the idea of the dream being killed becausethey would have to pay it if winning.

Was hoping it will pick up but there are 2-4k matched on every race.Only RPGTV keep dog racing alive.Sadly.Betfair should do something but they dont care.

cant for ten days until figures are published
Report middleman April 25, 2013 9:31 PM BST
Out of interest Irish,how do those figures compare to a couple of years ago?and do you know if the figures they publish are correct?

Even if they are it is actually only half of that changing hands and I can only talk from my own experience and that is if you want over a monkey on a non short price fav on a bags race then you will need to take well under the original odds and that is chipping rather than lumping if you get me.

so sad, remember some 50k + races on bags at crayford
many times seen 25k + on a single bags dog

Sunderland greyhound guesser reckons that i am always moaning... err my last observation was that the greyhound pools were dying.....yes they are guesser, now between a miserable 3k and 12k...average probably 8k matched. As i said before r.i.p Betfair greyhounds and soon to follow Betfair as a company!
