Just a question to you guys.
Been testing in-running strategies just wanted to know why a shed load of money is always matched at 2.0 where 1.98 say there is hardly any?

If you lay two horses at two you will break even, but that doesn't really explain why people wouldn't just put it at 1.98

I think people lay or back at 2.0 is because it's a 50/50 bet and they are trying to get some advantage out of it.
