i dont defend bookies often but they have every right to offer any price they want as do any clothing or fruit and veg store...if the customer doesnt support them then they will have to alter their pricing......

that is true..bookies often tend to forget that we are their bread and butter and treat us like crap with poor prices and crap stretches...how long for Betfair to get legal?

I am sure the MDK double paid 13/10 with the tote? I got 4/1 with Interbet.

Plus have never hidden the fact that Betfair was the best invention ever, but not as easy to make a profit as u think.

Its a great invention for the owners no risk, what a pleasure taking a cut in matching two punters with opposing views.

yeah but we can LAY if we do not fancy a favourite...there have been countless times I wanted to lay a favourite as I could see they were wrongly priced up at very short odds.

Gerald I am sure I could write a book, you must remember if you lay on Betfair you are laying at the max stretch, so if you think the 5/10 is a stupid price you might have to lay evens.

happy to send you a book and even a T shirt,

You become the bookie Greg .The horse wins you payout .

But lets say yo have a horse that you have backed at 5/2 and at race time players are looking for say 18/10 cause the horse has shorten , you can sell back part of your bet to cover part of your stake .

The option to lay a horse gives you full control of the way you wanna bet . You not restricted to backing !

Country member for example somehow always gets on when the horses are big prices he could sell back at shorter odds almost everytime thereby having less risk .

Get it !
