Cheltenham 2012

[jimrobo]

Have to say I am doing far better on betdaq BUT the response times are unbelievable.

I'm getting 10-15 seconds completely blackouts consequetively. Seriously they need to sort this out.

Have to agree with Ted Walsh - shambles from Cheltenham, the big race was spoilt there. What the flag man was doing behind the railing is beyond me

Is it possible that sizing Europe did not win because of the hidden flag?
However I am still waiting a settlement from betfair..
wierd...

forget the last sentence, I have just been paid...

[superfrank]

they are saying that Sizing Europe wouldn't have won anyway but i'm not convinced.

the jockey had to pull his head right up in the air to get him round the last and he lost momentum just when he seemed to be getting on top again.

I totally agree with that. The horse head was almost twisted to turn the horse on the right direction..

I agree with you jimrobo that the markets in general feel very much like a midweek race or winter race but with bigger numbers. It just feels like traps set up waiting for any money to be offered and then go against it.

[Boing]

Nothing like a mid week race, so much money around. But it does feel a bit jumpy late on.

Assuming most of you wont be bothering this evening because of cheltenham.... well and truly missed out, looks like the bomber must of had a big win at cheltenham, last 2 races he knocked two runners from around 9.0 into 6.0 ..

What did you see Peter that makes you think it is done to trick bots? And what made you think he was holding the price down?

Just a theory. Not every body is looking at price, some may trigger when they think a move is about to occur. So by loading up money and then pulling it, it may trigger a bot to fire.

I was on this horse having seen somebody trying to trap the price and seeing it was drifting. Based on the way my orders were filling they were desperate to keep the price where it was. It felt like a champagne cork about to pop. Which is exactly what it did.

I really collect data on all markets, not just the big ones. We just put more focus on the big ones.

Was that the bomber their on the fav..? 70k odd but i didnt dare look away from what i was doing for much longer than a second

[Tobedotty]

Not sure, I think whoever it was they dumped 100k with the 70k being the remainder after he'd already brushed past a few rows. The money didnt stay there for long though.

[Euler]

Must admit I didn't see it. I may have a chart somewhere.

Just pulled out a great result from the 14:40. On a bit of a high.

Big Bucks been on a walk for most of the day.
