MATCHBOOK says goodbye to 2% commission...

[andywend]

How exactly are all of you defining "scalpers"?

Are you talking about those who wait for line moves and then snap up orders at Matchbook before they adjust and then immediately buy the other side and scalp a few points doing this before the game begins?

I do a lot of live trading and I will routinely bet both sides of a game as its going on depending on the action.

Would I be considered a scalper?

[bookie]

Of course you would.

But the guys who were really upset are the ones that would enter the same in-game market multiple times and only get charged on the net outcome of those bets. So it sounds like you're not that kind of scalper.

How has the new commission structure and attendant liquidity worked out for the kind of scalping you do?

d2bets,

Several years ago I did learn from your comments. Now I am like "Why does he mention this?". Exactly my feelings!
