At the risk of sounding like the forum's official promoter of Bet365, people with a funded account can watch Pakistan vs Sri Lanka on their website (in case any of you are trading it off 5Live Extra and would rather have pictures.)

EDIT: Radio is about 10 seconds ahead of website pictures.

Someone offering a £5k lay at 1.99 on coin toss for India v Bangladesh. :shock:

Does this happen often?

And some guy wanting to back at 2's..

Bit of a mystery these markets to me as have been matched (for small amounts in the c1.8 & 2.2 regions)...

Only thing I can say for sure is you don't want to leave money in the markets near the toss as it will be swept up v quickly by the folk with lightening pics - and the toss isn't always when you think it should be...

PS: I posted a pic a while back of someone being matched at 95's (not 1.95, 95), before the toss..

Presumably the 2's available to back is a cross match of the 1.99 lay (Betfair pocket the difference).

Now 1.98 to lay and 2.02 to back. Double-sided coin to be used? :lol:

I think crossmatching is a rather clever way to keep such markets alive and usable

No idea what volumes this one gets but perhaps someone may have found it useful for churning etc

The other weird thing about these markets is that they can stay open well after the toss has happened & bets after the toss seem to stand (although the result is known).

As you'd expect, beats sweeping up leftover stakes inplay for a few ticks at a time

But someone always has to sweep up after everyone else has had their fun :)

I just don't find it very stimulating, it can pay stupid amounts but are we traders or janitors
