Laying in running

[stsm1]

Hi,

I have just started to lay in running and am using the grid interface. I thought that by clicking the current lay price that the price would be matched. However I found that most bets were unmatched. What am I doing wrong? Any help would be great.

Cheers
Steve

In horse racing there is 1 sec delay for inrunning betting from betfair
For tennis and football 5 sec delay

"In horse racing there is 1 sec delay for inrunning betting from betfair "

That should be predicated with 'For most people'

Thank you. I want to confirm what the functionality Override Odds does as I would like to ensure my bets are matched when they are placed.

Am I correct in thinking that with this option ticked the whatever values are set e.g. 1.01 for back and say 50 for lay then these odds will be used. However if say I put a back bet in and the highest current odds available were 5.00 then my bet would be matched at these odds. Is this correct.

Equally if I placed a lay bet into the market at the override odds of 50 but the odds of 10.00 were available it would match the bet at these odds. Is this correct?

Cheers

You are correct. Betfair always match you at the best available odds.
