I thought the commissions were lower on some things at MB, but I might be wrong. That would be the only reason to play there if you already have a BF account, IMHO.Comment -
If you are into straight bets on US sports then Matchbook is most certainly worth having.
As compared with Betfair: more liquidity, better odds and lower commission
But BetFair beats Matchbook almost all the time on anything else, though look out for dogs on major events such as tennis grand slams where the commission difference can be quite substantialComment -
I wish betfair will return to US market sometime.Comment -
They will soon, hopefully:
Gov. Schwarzenegger has signed the horseracing bill passed by the California state legislature on Aug. 31. The bill will make the Golden State the first in the nation to allow exchange wagering on horses, although it will not come into effect until May 2012, and still needs approval of the California Horse Racing Board. Regardless, this pleases Betfair immensely, as they’d lobbied hard for the inclusion of exchange wagering in the bill.Comment -
