    Zahpeter's Betfair trading

    Allright, this is my first thread, so be nice
    I have long postpone starting to keep a record of my plays,and since I've been doing decently this is a good chance to make me start doing this.By all means, contribute to this if you can (sadly Betfair doesn't like the US).

    Contrary to normal jargon, Laying on Betfair means you bet that a certain outcome WON'T happen. Backing means betting that it WILL happen.
    Example : Team "Horny badgers" has odds of 4 to win against team "Pirate Ducks". If i LAY Horny Badgers and they win, i'll lose 3 times my stake.

    Remember, this is trading, if i'm not a greedy idiot, i won't stick to a lay, and trade it and try to green. I might also burn my bankroll, so, be gentle with your money if you decide to join in.

    1) I will lay the Draw in Aab- Nordsjaelland @ 3.7

    I sometimes wait for lower odds in play, but not this time. The biggest odds i'll get involved are around 5, depending on the game. When entering at odds of 5 i'll probably go out at 2 for a loss across the board, usually at 0-0 if we have a sleepy match on our hand. last night i've traded Paok and Aris entering 5.2 and exiting the trade at 2-1 for PAOK, i don't remember exactly, around 18. I also traded Sevilla and Betis, entering at the start (3.8 or so) and exiting at 2-0 for Sevilla and red card for Betis, at some huge odds. Most pro traders will say i should stick to a decent plan and follow it, this is probably true, but yeah, i'm just beginning to learn this stuff

    you should back draw when Aab took the lead 1-0.At roma game ,nothing more to do than back @ 2.00 to minimize the loss.
