Same here, I'll be taking the rest of the day off. I'll be having Easter away so I'll take my time to set things up. Good Easter to you all!

I currently have an £800 liability on Cornet v Safina starting any moment

I'm going to have bail out elsewhere at a huge loss!

Edit: Sorry got carried away with my zeros - £800 not £8000

How a company as big as Betfair gets away with this is disgusting

I've got out with Bet365 - Betdaq didn't have the liquidity

It's difficult to arb with the bookies when you pay PC though, so I'm kinda hoping Safina loses

I can't be bothered with this today, I'm off out for a drink. If anyone's in Southampton, I'll be in the Admiral Sir Lucius Curtis if you're up for an afternoon session!!

I'm not, but how will people recognise you (apart from the look of rage)? :)

Why don't they switch to the aussie exchange? Can't be used much overnight?

Different license etc. I doubt this would work but if they spent of a bit of money they could do something. You would have to replicate positions cross exchange as well so that would be pretty expensive. Have to say, this year has been the worst for Betfair in terms of outages that I can remember.

The only way I can se this changing is if enough noise is made to the investors/shareholders about the shocking availability of the Betfair platform.

Once people start worrying that their "shareholder value" is being affected then pressure would surely mount on Betfair to do something about this whole sorry mess.

It won't make any difference, as this again shows, unless you are pro-active.

Most of my money is in Betdaq now.

Maybe if everyone took a week off and withdrew their fund it would change things.

All that people are doing is maintaining the Status Quo

It is time for action not moaning.

I think I'll take this opportunity to have a break from trading and get packing, I'm off to Gdansk in Poland tomorrow for 4 days!

Not much relaxing though, 14 lads on a stag do :)

Have a good weekend fellow traders!
