pre race? in running?

My BOT just texted me and asked could you tone down the language please , we all have to eat.
|

By:
Are people still betting here? Still accepting this? No thanks.

By:
This is the same drivel we hear from the people who want lay guarantees from the books. It assumes only one punter.
In the real world, where there are lots of people trying to back the same horse at the same price, they cannot all be first in the queue. Most of them will not be first. |

By:
Can never understand these Threads .
Been here 18 years - and very few complaints- in fact , often get matched at Bigger than I am asking for. I can only assume that they are moistly 'one tick merchants' trying to eek out every last halfpenny out of the (possibly Trade) - and not wishing to risk a Farthing themselves. |

It takes a skilled operator to beat the bots at their own game.

By:
In fairness to the OP, it does happen in sports betting but I personally haven't experienced in horse racing.
|
|
By:
Maybe that explains it, then - Deplasterer
I am almost exclusively a Horse Racing bettor. Why does the OP - and other complainants - not post their grievances on the - General Betting - Forum, then. |
|
By:
Ironically, it would be more convincing if bot-authors made the same complaint, as they could presumably check the timestamps between prices being offered and taken.
It might also be possible to write a bot to test the OP's complaint. Write a bot that checks a price repeatedly and try to place a bet every (say) 100 goes. If the price only disappears when the bet is attempted but not during the no-bet price checks, then something fishy is afoot. |
|
By:
its pre race ,the same has been happening to me for about 6 months ,from every 10 attempts ,i get the "advertised" price about once id say ,it just disappears to be replaced by a much lower price as soon as i press the button .

By:
Has the OP disappeared?
|
|
By:
For some people, is there perhaps a mismatch between the stake asked for, and the stake set on the betting view options? A lot of people set £2 so they can see the overrounds, but that can be misleading if you are betting in hundreds or even in tenners.

I have the same experience constantly - dogs and horses - anyone with a decent brain knows exactly what's going on, just nowhere else to go - it's criminal

I was mainly expressing my anger at this practice that is clearly in place these days... it seems my opening post disappeared also .. Fkn C U NT S

By:
depends on which settings they've established on your a/c. hence some agree with you, others haven't got a clue what you're on about.

40 in the lay box...click to lay 390 and guess what you lay?

an egg ?

By:
yes..in your case unfertilised.

By:
too easy, get in.

By:
Well those who don't know or it hasnt happened to them yet are clearly unaware .. It happens more so when not much liquidity in market or new markets where not much activity has taken place .. The price could be there at 2.76 with 50 say available to back.... place bet 50 and no matched bet... 2.76 is now in lay side in the request box for 50 and best new available price to back is 2.72 for a couple ticks less ... Yes the monetary value is small on this example but its the practice of it that is just DISGUSTING. Its not a case of missing the price it is clear fkn margin rape by the bots
|
|
By:
if you get matched you'll find the market will instantly move against you ... and for whoever matched you
 |
|
By:
Haha at OP
 |
|
By:
Irish Wizard - you don't need a bot to strike a bet at 2.76 and immediately try to lay it off at 2.72. I am staggered that you are surprised by this. What have you been doing for 15 years, apart from perhaps losing and getting cross
. |

|
By:
Ive never used custom columns, but what does transaction log show when you click 95?
Does it so the snapshot of the market to the right for each fragmented odd matched? If it does then that would show how little money was in at each price when you clicked wouldnt it? |
|
By:
Look at the time of the click and the response time and see if there was actually still any money hanging around after the point you bet actually gets matched
Id say there wasnt |
|
By:
it matters not whats in the box..roberto detects an overide and thats what thou gets..
|
|
By:
but the transaction log would show the money thats still available to everyone else then
Unless you are implying they create a whole different market viewable for each user? |
|
By:
I reckon that the time it takes for the bet to match (1.2s) you miss the 10s and no fooker wants to back the horse you want to lay for any reasonable money between 10s and 95 cos all the dummies went belly up ages ago and not everyone playing a tight game
|
|
By:
dusty , sometimes my transaction log boxes are empty
|
|
By:
at the time of the bet matching?
Doesnt that imply the money been missed? |
|
By:
ahh , i didn't know that , thanks
|
|
By:
If I have what ppl are thinking correct...wouldnt it mean that bf would have to emulate a whole market snapshot for gruss to capture that was completely false for each individual user?
Im highly sceptical at such a crazy idea. The simplest explanation is the time it takes to match the little money there was has been cancelled |

reiteration...
