Back $4 on 1000 odds taken

[Dag]

Now I'm even more confused , so you're betting before the off but having bets matched at 1000?? Or are they bets being matched when you try and match up unmatched runners in running?

I'd also be careful if you're placing lots of those $0.09 bets, Betfair will be aware of your account and won't tolerate it for too long.

Well yes. Before, I played during the race but now stoped. In plat is about 15' before actual race start. I am placing bets from 3' to 0' before start. It takes about 3-4 seconds. For this strategy (dutching odds) 1 second more or less doesn't play some role. But you saw that stupid horse (Thomas or something)? It was dismissed at the start. My back button do nothing except filling the proper field with value "BACK".

I read about that small bets and betfair opinion about that... I think that I am finished with that now... that racing are crazy house I can imagin what amount I'd lost if played with normal values. Odds probability simple doesn't work. From 10 horses in the race, when u covered first 4 favourites, it means nothing!

Yep you need to remember , aside from the front runners which get slightly overbet cos they'll shortern in running, the majority of the odds on Betfair are correct. So simply dutching by the odds means you're break even at best and because of commission, the fact you're crossing the spread and closing out in running it'd never be a winning strategy.

I couldn't agree more to that. That's why I can say that this system really works.
