howdy ! im not sure why the inconsistency in this market silk but it has bugged me also.the daq has an even/odd market for most inplay games and one should prob open an account over there incase betfair goes down when ur hangin.Once upon a time! BF and the daq had this market in running and used to create some nice arbs in running. i went as far as to ask bf why they pulled it but never got anyone on the phone that could tell me.
best of luck!

Hi Guys, The one reason I am wary of LTD is gettting the staking correct. Any suggestions?

I tend to not stake more than 3%-5% of my bank as the main stake for LTD, which gives me a liability of between 10%-15% of my bank (depending on odds).

I've been doing LTD for a while now wiyh some success but it can the very frustrating. I've also been stung by the dreaded 0-0 a few times (including last week in the friendly between B. Munich and R. Madrid- never though that would end 0-0. ;-( ) Anyway I also backed 0-0 FT in that one so that covered some of my loss.

I always wait for the game to go in play before I lay the draw and usually at odds of less than 3.0.

Good info here anyway.

Hang in there sofa! This is not the most well used forum on the web, but people will eventually answer a post!

One suggestion.... not many people would expect a 0-0 between Bayern and Real so most would see no value in backing it... but they happen. So, although you wouldn't get anywhere near the same odds why not put a back on U2.5 or even U1.5 goals? Both those trades payout at 0-0 and both survive a one goal scoreline....Just a thought!

Ignore that - complete waste of time if you're waiting for the draw odds to reach 3 before laying! My mistake, sorry!

No, it's a good point, not a complete waste of time.

. Even when the draw odds hit 3.0 the odds on the 0-0 FT were still quite high ( forget exactly what they were). Suppose if I'd also bet on under 1.5 and 2.5 it would've eaten into any potential profit from laying the draw but i'll definitely consider this in the future. I've learnt to stay from certain leagues including Portugal, Brazil and USA football as well as some of the East European leagues..... .. thanks
