I think they do want it all but over the last couple Of years have slaughtered all the goodwill they initially generated.
Fast pics and the hoovering up of prices like your 2k just sicken people off and drive people away.
All the "mug" money has gone as they try to send it to their fixed odds arm

It's like watching The Sky at Night.

Patrick Moore says something about the orbit of Ceres that I pretty much understand. Then Brian Cox explains why Voyager's discoveries about it affect our daily life (which I sort of get but couldn't explain to anyone ten seconds later) and then another professor (possibly with a pronounced Austrian accent) mentions gluons, muons and Minkowski Space-Time and my head explodes.

Still fascinating stuff and obviously relevant to me, as I use betfair (if only for small bets). I'm just struggling to work it all out. Sorry!

£15.36 matched on the fifty Market
Really surprised no had £100 at 365s 3.5 and layed the 3.0 on bf.

Did you have Tony Ansells card for the Athletics?
As a Market maker they should have treated you better. Everyone knows it's bollocks that the guy may have just "fancied it"

 I did see Tony Ansell's tips. One or two were quite interesting but it was pretty dependant on knowing the results of the Russian National trials a day before everyone on the internet knew, and getting on quickly with firms like Bluesq and Stan James. You would have made a profit to the stakes suggested.

 I didn't want to tell that as a bad beat story - I have loads of better ones. It just staggers me that they can be so arrogant. Without me you literally couldn't get a bet on some of the field events, I am not a robot, I do not own any software, (even simple one-click stuff), I simply like betting. Obviously I am trying to win, but I am working pretty hard at it and giving them a lot of comission. They can say it's all caveat emptor but when they decide not to void in that instant they are saying they prefer the other guy's business. In a world since Voller La Vedette I can't accept that.

 They are now in a spot where they have unique confidential inside information of what their biggest customers are doing to make money and they are going to use that information to suck money out of their recreationals via fixed odds.

 What price they have gone completely in five years?

They took on their biggest punters before afaik and ended up bottling out cos of the swings. Don't have the full story but pretty sure its happened a few years ago. By biggest punters I don't mean the clued up guys either.

Standard the opening two both make 50. Wp me Sad

Was talking to Jesse May the other day, and he knows all about the new Irish guy who is (or already has?) taking over as CEO at Betfair.

Jesse reckons this guy is brilliant and will sort out the company within the year.

Worth giving him a chance I think.

Only one batsman made over 50 in the innings. Typical.

That Miami tip was one for the ages

As a measure of how nailed on it was, freak plays such as multiple interception or punt retrun TDs aside....

Ryan Tannehill the new Miami Lolphins QB threw 29 of his 36 passes between 0 and 9 yards. Only 1 pass over 20 yards

We really going to be truly horrible offensively this year, any game we do win is going to be a terrible watch.

One for the other thread probably, but if they get the number 1 pick it will be fun, with Tannehill only just picked and the likes of Barkley the USC QB coming out next year

Shame Miami aren't playing Cleveland away in December.

The total points line might have been a record low!

i actually think it probably doesn't matter who is in charge now because once they listed they were dead as an innovating company who could be good for punters, at that point shareholder value becomes the main focus of the CEO and shareholder value increasingly means delivering short term value to city institutions and that means focussing on costs and margins in the short term and that can never be about changing industries.  Betdaq or some leftfield firm we have yet to hear about is the only hope imo.
