True enough. However the Toon Army stayed put. The Hammers have left the building.

That's what I was wondering. I'm on 500ms so perhaps a large bet was pulled and resubmitted but that's unlikely.

Perhaps Derek was mistaken and the volume moved price? Or the layer cancelled and immediately put it back up at the same price?

Oh yeah. Cross-matching likely the answer.
How can cross-matching allow you to jump the queue? Some of that four-figure sum should have been cross-matched, not that I'm complaining.
I've had three tuppence back bets taken at 1.38. The first one was to win nothing. The second and third wins a penny, effectively giving me odds of 1.5.
Perhaps Betfair have put in some sort of banker's rounding to ensure you don't lose out.

Someone puts up a £10 offer on the back side of unders at 1.99 which makes the cross-matcher show £10 available at 2.02 on the lay side of overs, even though the real balancing price should be 2.01. If you come along and drop in another offer on the lay side of overs at 2.02, perhaps that offer jumps ahead of the original £10 because you are offering a real 2.02 instead of cross-matcher's 2.01?
Yeah, that makes sense, and a possibility.jamesedwards wrote: ↑Sun Feb 11, 2024 7:22 pmI'm just guessing, but in the following hypothesis;

Were the two late goals too late?
On Saturday afternoon, as you observed that...
I was staring at this:
Oh, how I laughed!
