It is quite evident now that when Betfair offers In-Play betting on a market then chances are close to 100% that it will be managed properly. Especially when it comes to proper suspension of market. After getting stuck with large losing positions because market suspended prematurely I decided to complain. They actually reimbursed me with some of my losses. I suggest that everyone incurring losses in this manner do the same and request reimbursement. Hopefully this will force Betfair to obtain proper licensing agreements and proper video feeds so that In-Play can be offered and therefore allow them to manage markets properly.

I will start doing the same thing, sounds great. Its true there managing it improperly and not with the off by any means. Its so hard to put tracks on in play I don't get it. Have only tracks you can operate correctly.

I think that is why they've so far only had keeneland, who were obviously keen to up their profile just before the breeders cup and now woodbine who, being canadian rather than US, are not anti the exchange model. are there any others being offered in running?

RiskyBusiness: Only Woodbine is offered right now - these markets are the only ones being managed properly on a consistent basis. Better than nothing but why not work on offering more asap?

yes i'd love it if they did but a lot of the US tracks don't like the idea of exchange betting, i.e. being able to lay bets, so won't offer betfair the truly live feeds.

That's why you have something called negotiating. Or else don't offer anything, its a joke at it stands.
