It was very interesting to trading the Snooker last night.
Initially I traded the Outright Winner market (it was the final) and half way through I switched to the ind match Odds as the liquidity was much better.
I made the same amount of money in less than half the time on the match odds and wished Id traded that one from the off.
Did betfair implement the cross matching across markets?
The market was moving that quick last night, there seemed to be a slight lag between the two. I didn't study it in any depth as I was too busy trading, but it seemed to throw up some opportunities along the way
Just wondered what others experiences are of trading similar situations?

Very similar to trading the final of a tennis tournament Match Odds vs Outright winner

You quite often find there's a 1/2 tick difference pre-event and 4/5 in play
