Very strange effort Sedjati, no doubt to the delight of the bookmakers. They will also quite pleased with Camacho-Quinn dwelling in blocks. Kipyegon bolted up having looked tired in the first round. Tonight it was the opposition who looked spent, particularly Welteji.
Assuming he stays injury free looks like there's masses to come from Tebogo over 200 and 400. Took a near world record to see him off tonight. |

The 2 Womens cycling pundits on BBC1 seem to think the American is different class in the Omnium, managed a little bet at odds against, trading 1.9 now. ( Valente).

Betfair showing shocking incompetence or worse in one of the olympic specials. The market titled "Most gold medals" that was heading for a dead heat had This market will be settled on the official medal standings at the conclusion of the final presentation ceremony (based on most gold medals, then silver, then bronze) and will not be affected by subsequent disqualifications or amendments. added to the rules with a few minutes to go in the final relevant event. ok the market rules stated Which nation will top the medal table at the 2024 Paris Olympic Games? but the market is titled "Most gold medals" not "Top the medal table" |

"added to the rules with a few minutes to go in the final relevant event."
Those rules were there several days out (when I first looked). |

By:
they were added though and without a timestamp it isn't clear when they were added. Someone who played the market thinks that it was added shortly before the basketball final.
https://community.betfair.com/general_betting/go/thread/view/94082/31850619/olympics-medalsspecials-most-gold-medals#flvWelcomeHeader With only minutes to go before the basketball was due to start and the USA needing to win to make it 40 each,betfair decides to put up in red a new rule which changes everything |

Betfred paid out on a DH in the most gold medals market.

By:
Betfair are claiming the countback rules were there from the start on July 18th.
|
|
By:
My bad, complainant now says that the wording was there from the start according to betfair. Still poor market title from betfair as "most gold medals" very misleading when the market was actually "medal table winner"
|
|
By:
It is misleading, and it's mostly historical. It's a market I'm very familiar with and it's been the same for decades. Most golds used to nearly always mean medal table. Experience teaches you to check the rules, but ofc everyone starts somewhere and it's best to make it clear for everyone.

Just turned on Sky News to hear of heroic receptions , open top buses and praise for an exceptional performance from team GB at these Olympics , as a total non follower can someone explain the reason for the " exceptional " praise across all the media or am i missing something.....
Previous 3 Olympics we averaged 26 Golds and 65.33 in average medals won. 2024 Olympics we won ...........14 Golds and 65 medals in total. Bearing in mind the gap between Gold vs Bronze quite often is a country mile and a class gap haven't we either gone backwards or is it just others have leaped forward , seems miles off a successful games to me. Ready and waiting for someone to tell me i'm talking complete bollox and i'm missing something |
