    Betfair trading or.. how to win Oregon v Auburn regarless of the outcome.

    Since 90% of you don't visit soccer football section (where my thread is at), I thought I'll quote it in players talk as well for you football junkies.

    I placed four more live bets during the game because I felt that my initial bet 'Auburn +2.5' may be a loss. Therefore I had to react, so I would not lose 4x in case of Oregon winning more than 2.5pts.

    Code:
     0-0  Pre-Game,    back auburn+2.5 @1.83 (-120) for 4x = O-4,00 A+3,32
 0-0  auburn ball, back oregon     @2.12 (+112) for 3x = O+6,36 A-3,00
 3-0  oregon lead, back auburn     @2.72 (+172) for 4x = O-4,00 A+6,88
 3-7  auburn lead, lay auburn      @1,70 (-143) for 5x = O+5,00 A-3,50
16-11 auburn HT lead, lay auburn   @1,60 (-167) for 2x = O+2,00 A-1,20

That makes:
Auburn win: +3,32 -3,00 +6,88 -3,50 -1,20 = 2,50x
Oregon win: -4,00 +6,36 -4,00 +5,00 +2,00 = 5,36x
    In this case I won 2,50x last night.
    risk-free gambling? definitely possible.

    hindsight is 20/20 bro. what if oregon would have blown them out? you never would have had those opportunities.

    Yeah, it's nice when it plays out that way for you, but it really only worked this time because you made the right call pre-game.

    monte, not sure what your problem is, but i wrote american odds in brackets because i knew that people like you will bitch around about the oh-so-difficult decimal odds. must have overlooked it, mate. go buy glasses and look again.

    of course there is no such thing as risk-free betting. as hoja verdes also stated what if oregon blew auburn out, i'd have lost. that's true. but this match was meant to stay close either way. when opportunity presents itself, for example the dog leads, u gotta take it.

    i took it and had a risk-free enjoyable 2H last night and i could cheer either team without worrying about my money.
