I did it for a very long time, never had a loss.

I cashed out some money from betfair not a long time ago, now I've decided to start and record it in blog.

There should be tomorrow Tennis for at least 5% but I won't have time to wake up early, too much for me, I will just grab 1 match

Swift, Account #, Bank address etc?

It works very well for me, call you bank and ask for accurate info, probably something goes messed up.

I'm going to update it today with Dementieva's game, still live and you can see it live in Bet365.

They fooled me. Dementieva was breaking Jill's serves and was in 5-3, the score in Bet365 showed 5-3, I even waited to confirm it's true. Now it seems that's not true. What happened there?

Next time I'm using 2 websites to confirm

Interesting stuff, Arie.....I joined BetFair in February, and it became quickly apparent to me that with the Back and Lay options, one can find quite a few opportunities to make some quick coin, literally in a matter of seconds. Good to see it's working out for you and good luck.....

Can make more money collecting pop cans than backing baseball teams at 1.01.

Yeah, check my last post about the Golf tournament right now. If you have a lot of money in Betfair you can duplicate what I did or even take for a start $50 - $60 or even more There is a big list of players you can "eliminate" there and just grab free cash to yourself.

I usually don't touch baseball but in 9-0, last pitch, 2 players out - different story.

But basically I don't like the American sports, many games are fixed or somehow "getting to be fixed". In normal European basketball game what happened yesterday between Spurs and Lakers wouldn't go that easily there. Not saying Spurs don't know how to play but if they really care about winning the game they wouldn't do 6 second shot but just waste the clock. (I didn't place bets on that game btw)

nice blog. betfair is sort like tradesports but with more coupons, way more liquidity, and probably less in commission

I would say that a team better be ahead by double digits in baseball before I'll bet 500 to win 5, I've seen too many 7-8 run innings lately to be comfortable laying 1.01, but as long as you don't have a pitcher die on you then it's all good. I agree if it's 9 runs up with 2 outs in 9th inning I would lay 500 to win 5, but not a 7 run lead in the 5th or 6th, would just stress me out too much for a 5 dollar win.

My goal was to reach the 30% every month and it's easily been reached this month. Any suggestions for the Tennis tomorrow? I don't understand why the games are being suspended so many times, it's not Wimbeldon where it rains every day

Ouch.....Tough break Arie. I was watching the Czeck-Scotland game on BetFair's streaming video, as you might have doing as well. Needless to say, those 3 goals in the last 6 minutes came out of nowhere.....
