So, If I go 5-0 on my "$100,000" bets in soccer for a profit of $500,000 does that mean I only get $200,000 and BetFair keeps $300,000?
That seems outrageous to me and I am not sure how a player (a big player) can ever make money at BetFair. Since I am wagering maybe $1,000,000 to win $500,000 which after premium charge is $200,000?
If I bet $50,000 at Pinnacle I might have to deal with a higher line BUT I don't have to give up 60% of my winnings.
I am sure BetFair is great for smaller players but I am just wondering how these guys who are pulling out $3,000,000 or $2,000,000 do it when they lose 60% of their winnings>>>if I am understanding correctly.
