Nigeria v South Africa - strange graph...

The bets are voided by Betfair due to VAR?

This is a level of skullduggery not seen since the days of Hansi Cronje.

And betfair lose again on the 90 minute bets lol

i looked at the graph BEFORE VAR gave the penalty.

DRAW matched at 60 according to the graph...

9.2 according to the data to the right...

All bets are wiped during certain periods of VAR and incidents from it. Bit of a minefield. The graph doesn't update correctly often so may still show the wiped bets.

Probably matched at 60 while it was ‘2-0’. As Ange says, will be voided.

Soccer
If Betfair does not suspend a market on time for the occurrence of a Material Event (as defined in Part B of these Rules and Regulations above), Betfair reserves the right to void bets matched after the Material Event has occurred. Voiding of these bets may take place during the event or retrospectively once a game is completed.
Where a Material Event (as defined in Part B of these Rules and Regulations above) is cancelled due to a determination made via a video assistant referee, Betfair will void all bets which are matched between the occurrence of the Material Event and the cancellation of it. The voiding of any such bets may take place during the event or retrospectively once a game is completed.
For the avoidance of doubt, where a video assistant referee ruling results in the award of a Material Event (as defined in Part B of these Rules and Regulations above), such Material Event will be deemed to have occurred at the time at which the video assistant referee commences a review relating to such (ultimately awarded) Material Event. In such circumstances, bets matched prior to the time at which the video assistant referee commences a review will not be voided.

so Angela...

are you saying that South Africa WAS matched at 1000...

and Betfair voided those bets coz VAR was in progress ?

that seems the most utterly hideous thing i have ever heard in my life tbh...

not having a go at you Angela...

but if the bets were matched they should stand imv...

tough t1tty for whoever layed the bet imv.

too many 'Material Events' there the dealer but i get the picture...

cheers.

(still think it is utterly hideous tho).

These VAR rules have been in place for ages. It's hard to tell at what stages they will void bets, and often bets are voided way after a match (so you could face a hefty loss a day after having thought you had won). I agree with you and think as with all other sports they should let the market remain open and free

Agreed but it seems those are the rules as AR says

I agree with you and think as with all other sports they should let the market remain open and free

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

of course they should Angela...

that's just pure madness imv.

I guess it's to keep liquidity as 95% of in play domestic matches people have no pictures. But for matches with pictures they should keep the market free and open.

i'd love to know who actually layed the 1000 and the 60 tbh...

i wonder if hulk might have a suggestion ?

The rule certainly imo , isn't very fair and open and open to all sorts of abuse

what next ?

voiding photo finish bets cause the original winner gets chucked out in a subsequent Stewards Enquiry ?

ridiculous imv.

someone backs the 2nd at 1000 on the run in...

bing bong goes...

2nd gets the race...

eh sorry we are voiding your 1000 bet on the original 2nd coz there was a stewards enquiry and it's not fair on the layer...

hideous imv.

What is the purpose of this transmission? What significance has this tournament on EPL, etc?

Nigeria 3-1 up on penalties...

South Africa 2 pens left...

why did Betfair suspend the market ?

and then re-open when South Africa scored...

it's madness tbh.

that was the 'to qualify' market btw.

I just saw the penalties. What a racist country SA is, not a white player in sight.
I remember a furore because our ladies team didn't have enough black players.

'saddo', indeed. Living in a glass box ought not to throw stones comes to mind.

did the cricket team not have a 'qouta' system saddo ?

DR Congo with the wrong prescription :o

I don't know about that hibb. I think there are still quite a few white people in
South Africa, perhaps they are no good at football.

DR Congo running out of time to make a diagnosis

Is DR OGBA playing?

DR Congo hopes rest with a peer review

DR Congo failing its patients

They are being referred to DR Oetker

DR Congo striped of medical license

having listened to the Oscar P trial the whole nation of South Africa sounded like it wasn't a particularly nice place to live imv saddo...

certainly not a place i would ever visit.

It's odd hibb, my daughter is well travelled and she spent two months in Cape town
working on one of those TV shows. She went all over with other girls and no minders, absolutely loved it.

good to hear saddo...

i just got the impression there was lots of 'underground' stuff going on...

and smacking your wife/girlfriend was fair game...

hopefully things have changed for the better over the last decade.

Use to travel quite a lot there because of a company I worked for so still friends with quite a lot be people.

Anyways take aways…

Saturday night trips back to London from Joburg were something. There would be so many people making the trip Emirates would have back to back planes 30 minutes apart.

The country speed tested a lot of the woke stuff many years ago so if you are white you were basically passed over for jobs and promotions so those who could leave have left.

It’s a helluva thing to go to an interview and see the colour of the candidates and know straight away you ain’t getting it…just forget the interview and go home.

As you imagine…whilst this is a great opportunity for some people it kinda puts your company at risk because they don’t have the necessary experience or qualifications.

Unfortunately this sort of thing is starting to happen here now but with LGBT / gender etc etc

Sadly it’s something I experienced and had to move companies :(

Best night out I’ve had was a Friday night racing at Greyville followed by a night out in Durban.

Lovely race track of you get the chance up to go and Durban itself is lovely.

I woke up the next day thinking wtf happened…walked into my bathroom and sneezed all over the mirror and when I looked up there was white powder all over the mirror from the sneeze.

I remember being at the airport a couple hours later and being scared to sneeze when one of them sniffer dogs walked past
