Hi Folks,
I've had a couple of situations recently where I have been trading two matches in the same league. IE, I took a position prematch with the plan of exiting after kick off.
All good on one. However, the other match did not go live in-play.
By my eye there was no discernable way of telling which would go in play and which wouldn't.
Any thoughts?
Cheers

Sorry, but due to some technical mishaps beyond our control we have been unable to get an In-Play feed for this match.

We appreciate that it can be quite frustrating, however we will do everything within our power to have the markets settled as quickly as possible after the final whistle.

Our team are beavering away as we speak to ensure that this kind of thing happens as little as possible.

Regards,
Betfair

Hi there Rastis!


My only advice to you is stay away from the Russian League and MLS. LOL

Just kidding! During monday I was trading in Krasnodar and Spartak Moscow matches. Sometimes the markets in Russian PL can be suspended for 10min-20min without any special reason. And again, sometimes they don't go in play.

Just be careful with these markets (By experience...:-/).

Cheers!
