Betfair says I lost a back bet, but I layed it.

Hi all.....sorry if this is tedious, but am feeling aggrieved, or maybe there is an explanation?

Betfair has recorded me losing this bet as if it was a back only bet (£3 at 2.34), but the BetAngel log shows that I layed it in-play using automation (1.40 at £5). So what's gone wrong? Anyone?

The log does nt show if it was matched (unless matched at the moment it reached the market as in the case of your back bet) if you check your matched bets you ll probebly find none of your greening up lay was matched due to the odds drifting out to quick

Ah. Ok. Thanks so much Dallas.

Anything I could have done to avoided that?

Only thing you can do is trigger all in play green ups a few times using a rearm time of 2 secs or more so it keeps trying if it misses the previous attempt.

Sometimes even thats not enough if its the closing stages of a race, or a sprint race

Thanks so much. I will try that.
