if anyone has £2k spare in their betfair account, there's a lay of £2 on frings to score - it's on the 'to score' market at 1000:1 - he's banned so it's clealry a no lose situation... problem is i don't have £2k in the account....

I'm new to it as well but I think that you lay your money against someone elses bet.  I.e. if you lay Italy to win you are saying they won't win.  If you lay them for £2 at 6-1 and Italy win you will owe £12 but if its a draw or Germany win then you take the £2 stake.  I think this is right can someone please comfirm or correct me.

cheers

no thats right - you're basically becoming the bookmaker and offering the odds.  So if you don't think portugal will win vs france, you could offer your mate say 3-1 odds - if he bets £1 and they don't win, you take his quid.  if they do win, you owe him £3, plus his original bet.  So you've laid portugal at 3-1.

so you would really lay out £2000 to win that measly £2?

crazy!

But you can't lose if the player can't play.

I also imagine bets to be void if he doesn't play though.

There are a couple of others too like Betdaq and Mansion but Betfair has the best liquidity.
