Instead, your £2 will go onto the right hand pink column which will then show that there is £6491 avaiable for someone to lay at 1.94.

so it will be 'unmatched' on the right hand side at 1.94 ODM? Is it whoever lays first gets their money taken? Does it look as if theres going to be a load of unmatched money at 1.94 on PSV? only £1466 available to back at the mo on PSV? How do i lay at 1.92?

So now i think 'instead of BACKING the OVER i could LAY the UNDER.....right thats where im confused i think.

The price available to back is 1.62, not 1.47 but yes it is the same market in reverse but laying at 2.62 is not what you want either is it.

YES

YES

YES but the market is live so the same figures will appear once the game has kicked off and ebb and flow as it goes along depending on what happens

only £1466 available to back at the mo on PSV? How do i lay at 1.92?

You click on the lay side that currently says 1.94 and then change the odds in the little box that comes up (where is says backers odds) to 1.92. Then you just wait till the other £2,700 has been matched and you're in

k ODM. Ive just tried this-



that 16/1 is mine. Why is my price so differant to the others? Is my money matched? Will it probably be matched due to it's possible value?

[kompressaur]

it looks unmatched to me



It was strange as my 16/1 went up to £35 on it and then back down and im still unmatched

[kompressaur]

nah it was matched. I think

No Goal 17 £0.84
£13.44
Ref: 2821340497 Bet matched: 11:27 26-Dec-06
No Goal 17 £1.16
£18.56
Ref: 2821340497 Bet matched: 11:25 26-Dec-06

I really really dont understand whats going on.

[kompressaur]

ah i see i backed the 0-0 at 16/1 and they went off at 14/1?

What would i be looking at doing to ensure profit? Dont worry about hte stakes and it not being worth bothering etc as i could raise the stakes
