How come there are hardly any matched bets on purple right now? Much less than normal. You would expect the opposite when BF is down.

Had to use S Markets here, Bet Quack not an option, as I used to do some hospitality stuff for them so I'm not allowed a Bet Quack account or Lads for that matter.

Dom, isn't it sensible to use smarkets wherever possible anyway as it's 2% comm?

There's pretty much zero liquidity on there, especially in the place markets though.

But if you put your money in at same price as on here you'll usually get matched. (Although bit harder when BF has crashed).
