Well over the $2000 that Betfair don't want you to bet but it's hard to resist when you're getting in several trades a minute.
That limit doesn't seem an issue as long as you keep 24 or below NSW markets.

Only technically. I reckon if you regularly trade $5000 plus and avoid the turnover charge they will tell you to stop. I believe the fee they pay is up to 3% for the big meetings so it would cost them $150 less commission and PC.

It has never been an issue for me (touch wood).

Peter and several others I am sure put way more than the limit through a single market as well.

Mine caught up. Cheers for replies

Given that I have a 100% record in Aussie racing, and am now up £1.10, can someone offer some advice about the premium charge?

This is easy!
Give it a while and you’ll be singing this little tune In your head.

You used to think that it was so easy
You used to say that it was so easy
But you're trying, you're trying now”

Ha! Yep, I'm sure. (I didn't really mean it. I reckon I'm more likely to die/become a monk/win the lottery on the same day, before I have to worry about the premium charge....)

FFS! They don't change the name of a town over here just because the local racecourse has moved the rails 20 yards!!

Thanks for the info Aarondewit, I was just getting ready to go to bed.

Wasn't really prepared but I still got my slice of the free money. I must visit Randwick one day, I bet they just chuck the dollars around down there. :D

Enjoy reading your Aussie racing posts Derek,albeit with a large helping of envy :mrgreen: ...My cat jumped up on my desk and licked my hand while I was trading the other day.First time she's done that.. normally aloof or killing wildlife .. I'm taking that as a positive sign. :D

Just got hammered in the 5:35 - got involved far too early and was then a case of scalping to reduce my losses, not free money after all!

My cat just sits on the sofa gazing at me, wondering why my computer gets more attention than she does. :)

Lovely market to end the night, or maybe I'll take in one more. :D

It's really hard to stop trading when there's still more racing at Randwick. :D
