Sanity Check - Matchbook Goals Market

[thrillhouse]

Tell me if I'm being stupid here I laid this bet on Matchbook (see image below)

I calculated the fair odds based on the weekend fixtures being Fri-Sun (9 fixtures) and deemed this to be a value lay. Matchbook intended for the market to resolve as Fri-Mon (which I would have described as GW1 to avoid any doubt!). To me Monday is categorically not part of the weekend so should not be included.

Am I being pedantic here, should I just let it slide? Or would you try and argue this should have been settled as a winner?

I would have expected it to include all first round fixtures. Did it not confirm the dates? I see it mentions "21/..."

All fixtures for me, but it looks pretty badly worded/vague. Betfair has a full market rules panel - don't MB?

It just said 21/08/2026

Yeah I agree, this is why I asked for other opinions I can see how you can read it either way. They do have a rules panel but they're often vague for these enhanced specials.

Think I might just take this on the chin
