Biggest % race at Leopardstown yesterday on Betdaq did 36% of the volume of Betfair.

Any idea of the %'s on the read and butter races?

[Euler]

Generally 10-20% depending on a number of factors. The curious thing is it's easier to get orders filled on Betdaq. Less false money in the market.

I had a play on Boxing day and found the markets pretty good - obviously Kempton's feature was by far the best.

Significant volume on the 15:05. It's odd when that happens but it makes for an excellent market.

Interesting order on Betdaq on the 14:35 @ Punchestown. About £6,000 matched pre-race and the rest inrunning:

Missed that race so didnt notice it at the time. I see that it ended up winning though, somebody must have got some good value there.

[andyfuller]

Yes there was plenty of value to be had inrunning and pre-race.

Just done my sums for the month and paid 2.971% commission on Betdaq for December - beats Betfair's 60%

That's only 20 times lower

60% equals greedy bastards, losing customer like andy equals stupid.

Same thing just happened again on the eventual winner in the last race.

I didn't get a screenshot before the race, but a big chunk of money was in the lay column on the eventual winner and stayed there when the race in play.

It took an age to fill considering the horse was in front, and the price had gone under on betfair a couple of times.

[oscar123]

I got some screenshots of it, they were taken pretty much simultaneously, though obviously werent completely in sync.

I got 3 shots, showing how the money wasnt matched until the price had gone well under.

Wish i just backed it instead of just taking photos of it, though in running isnt really my thing, and i couldnt quite believe what i was seeing.

[andyfuller]

I helped myself to some this time but in Harry Hindsight hedged way too early.7

I think the reason it lasted so long was due to the long gap between the last 2 races so most people probably packed up before the last.

I found BD quite good again today, the first few races were excellent then it seemed someone turned on their bot and the market filled with money but before that there was some great scalping to be had.

P.S. what do you use for your screen grabs? I find it takes too long to do Print Screen then paste it into Paint before doing another Print Screen as the thing I want to capture has usually disappeared by then.

[oscar123]

Aplogies, i made a mess of that, pasted the same image twice in the second one. Ive ammended it to make it more accurate.

Well done on helping yourself, wish i could say i did the same.

I just use firefox scrapbook for screenshots, then print screen and get them into paint if i want to save them, though im just getting the hang of how to use paint. Think this one is right though.
