    Default i dont get why there is vig on betfair

    there is no bookie, you are making a bet with a fellow punter

    why arent the odds +100 -100?

    there seems to be a 1-15 cent vig built into the odds

    was Matchbook the same way?

    I might be wrong here, maybe i just dont get how the system works havent researched it really but it seems they are cheating bettors from a shitload of money

    which doesnt make sense, the more money a bettor makes, the more they earn in commission

    so someone should set up web site, post games, maintain a service call senter, run ads, send out checks, do the banking, and do all this with -100 and +100 lines

    errrrrr, they dont make one cent from the vig, that is my point

    they make their money from taking a cut off your winnings, so the less the vig, the more you make, the more they make
