Betfair: Is It Me or Has Liquidity Dropped?

[AimingHigh]

I tend to bet football (soccer), not horse racing, so can't comment on that, but I feel like BetFair liquidity has dropped off in the big league matches I'm betting on. Is it just me, or have others noticed it too? If so, does anyone have any sense as to what's up?

[Stumpage]

Not that I've noticed, Aiming. The Premiership and Championship leagues were very busy yesterday I felt if those are a couple of the leagues you are referencing.....

i bet baseball mostly and i find that it improves a lot when the match goes in play, the soccer could be because the seasons are coming near an end. If soccer players are anything like basketball , they tend to stop trying once the final weeks approach, just a theory, but you always got pinnacle to take your bet if no one else will

If u want great liquidity check out Betmaker

I thought it was done on English Premier League. Maybe it's just because I've been trying to get down bigger bets than usual, if no one else has noticed it.

I haven't seen any difference between now and earlier. Perhaps there might be a few matches with lower liquidity at the end of the season, but not in the English Premier League.

[kkkkk]

well liquidity is dropping every year, becose every year there is new country to prohibit online betting so they have less customers. In sports like volleyball, handball and basketball liquidity is very low, also some markets in soccer. On other hand horse racing still has a lot liquidity on inplay markets, same as other sports like tennis or baseball.

It depends what you're betting on, its rare to see low liquidity.

many things are now clear -the champions,those who qualify for the CL,
who will be relegated.Of course the people's interest is smaller.

this year,for now,there aren't new countries who have adopted laws banning or regulating the online betting.

the prime minister of my country said this law will be accepted in October.

[bookie]

tachi...which is your country? Are they going to ban it or regulate it?

[tachi]

Bulgaria,the government will issue licenses to online bookies,
16% tax per bet,no matter winning or losing.

the government said the European Commision has already approved the project of this law.

I have hard time believing it will be 16% for all EU

[Ruifgalmeida]

16% per bet that is impossible to make money

[King_Suckerman]

true, the european market is supposed to be open, but these countries keep finding ways to restrict wagering

Betfair and betmaker

When betmaker removes depositfees they can get my money

No nothing has changed on betfair for me anyway...

[sharlataans]

Is there a decent (free or one time price) software you are using for Betfair?

[sideloaded]

I noticed this too.
