Settled now

[superfrank]

I was just sure I'd end up on the wrong side of this (as with every other time!) but for once was on the right side.

[Euler]

Yes, I got a bonus on that.

[markowensimon]

RESULT Instead of giving me my greened up figure of 11p betfair have given me my original £20 stake It could quite easily have gone the other way though and i could have been responsible for the liability i had.This was the Chester race

[freddy]

A lucky bonus 100-00 from Chester,

nice to be on the right side for once

[jimrobo]

when I looked I had 500 liability on one selection. Looks like I had voided bets. Horse lost and I ended up +100. Not a particularly nice way to make 100 pounds IMHO. Just had the voided bets email too

[JollyGreen]

I ended up with +£374 but it could have been a nightmare had Haylaman won because my final lay bets totalled £400 at 6.4 and I would have been a different person had that happened.

As I said, first time it has ever gone my way

[hgodden]

I got a near 300 bonus out of that when I thought I'd have a near 300 loss. I had a 1.5k liability on one selection. Laughable really.

Your more gracious than me Jim, I'm quite happy now! Next time as soon as I hear there are no pics Im hedging immediately and running for the hills

[freddy]

That makes a change, everyone here seems to have made some on that, must be the BA forums lucky day

[andyfuller]

Peter - did you bet that was set to 'Take SP' indeed get matched at SP?

[SilentDave]

It went my way too but it's ridiculous that you can execute a nice risk free trade only for Betfair to open you up to a huge liability.

Not happy, although I'm off to London for a party on the Thames now so will drink the unexpected "bonus" in the sun
Hope the rest of the day goes well for you guys.

[mugsgame]

My understanding is if you stick a bet in on the opposing side of the book and then take sp, this should avoid you getting caught with a huge liability if this happens.

I always stick on in 15 ticks below (or above) my position and move it if the swing gets close.

[Euler]

Good result on the 15:35 at the Curragh +£190 from nowhere really.

Well done, can you confirm:

[Euler]

Too manic at the moment, will check later.
