Good

People who put in the work may now be able to get on at some sort of price instead of having the whole field contracting in price the night b4 with the books trying to guess wat PW will be!

Just out of interest, call me naive but is there a max payout on SP bets with Betfair?
Report longbridge February 22, 2012 1:49 PM GMT
@sunee

Depends what you mean by SP bets...

Place SP bets on the Exchange (ie hit the 'SP' buttons between the back and lay prices on the Exchange view, or click on 'Take SP' when editing an unmatched bet) - then it's a normal Exchange bet just with a different price-setting model and you can win as much as you like.

Place a bet at BSP (which can include singles) through the Multiples page and you're betting against Betfair as a bookie and there's a GBP 1 million per day max payout.

Bookmakers and racing booming in Australia where operators have to lay to lose at least £1150 to anyone at advertised prices on any metro race they price up (after 9am on day of race).

About 8 years ago Coral had a go at laying after eleven o clock  every punter any horse to loose a monkey,it lasted only a couple of months. They also on the screens used to say best price on the high street our football prices sad to say that has long gone, the weekend coupon will be out in the morning sad to say i will see more cuts than Henry Coopers cornerman.

hope you are well

Ronnie.

ronnie, I didn't realise they even bothered with coupons any more, I doubt many prices hare unchanged. Just a lot of work for you guys.

I have a good idea for those who can't get bets on. Set up as a bookmaker yourself or with fellow punters and see how much you are willing to lay. I have been a punter for 60 years but I still have respect for bookmakers who are taking a risk every day with their money just as punters are. I have used the big rails firms on course but always tried to bet with smaller operators off course until the exchanges came along. A one man band soon gets to know what you might know and used to ask me about yards I was associated with.

The word "bookmaker" just needs to be redefined. I have full respect for real bookmakers but if you bet on the high street or on-line, the reality is that there are none left. Gaming (risk free) has killed gambling.
