I often set up a series of lay bets via the Standard Exchange Lay Bets column, adjusting Backers Odds to the odds I want, then set the stake amounts, followed by choosing the Take SP radio button. This scenario allows for any unmatched bets to fall back to BSP, thus ensuring the bet is matched. When I choose the Take SP radio button, it does not advise me the minimum SP liability is £10. What it states is At In-Play, this unmatched bet will take SP.
Recently some of my bets have lapsed instead of taking SP. When I've queried this with Betfair customer service, they advised me it was because each bet was below £10 the minimum amount for BSP. I always thought the minimum bet for the Standard Exchange Lay Bets column was £1 (used to be £2). It certainly allows me to place the bets. There is another lay column called the BSP lay column and this does indeed restrict lay bets to£10 or over.
It might be I haven't hit this problem before as my bet were bigger than nowadays. Any advice would be welcomed.
Ok, this must be per bet, as overall liability was higher than £10 on the Minnie Hauke bets that lapsed. I don't remember ever seeing lapsed bets when market went in play until recently. How long has it been like this?
