Maximum Unmatched Bets

[Steve Voltage]

Is there a limit on the number of unmatched bets a Betfair account can have?

I can not actually give you a figure but what I am prepared to say is that in past times
I have personally had well in excess of 5,000 unmatched bets at any one time on some
occasions, but I don't think I ever exceeded 8,000? (FIVE to EIGHT THOUSAND).
Regularly I used to have 2,500 - 3,000 in place and never a problem.

However because of the transaction charges I have had to have some very late nights
and early mornings in order to place them. These placed over many markets which can
make it a bit of a chore to cancel them all in an emergency should the need arise?
These were a mixture of LAY and BACK bets, about 80-20.

Hope this is of some interest to you, Michael

Yes very interesting. Cheers

80-20 it is. Thank you for that. I'm still looking for the exact figure though. Working on it once I will have more spare time. Thanks again.
