Hi comrades

This is an extract from 'Scalping Article for our Members' by The Nugget Crew:

Look for the gaps. As we can see here with a little under 2 hours to the match there are
gaps already. This will be similar once the game goes in play.....


I would really appreciate anyone explaining to me - what 'gaps' are - why they are there - and what their significance is.

Many thanks in advance

Vic

Hi vic

Let me use an example like unders where the current back price is showing 3.50 but the lay price is say 3.65 as the game starts.........It allows ample opportunity to jump in and back at either the lay price or 1 tick lower. Once matched it can then be layed off at a lower price.

Trick is to be as near to the front of the queue as possible.

That's the sort of stuff I need to know. Thank you Ads. I have never thought of backing at the lay price. I didn't even know you could get a back bet matched at a higher price than the current one. Brilliant!

I'm going gap hunting.

Thanks again Ads
