Yes, bodes well for Cheltenham.

Sooner Ladbrokes pump more "liquidity" into Betdaq the better.

Yep, the usual 3pm Saturday crash strikes again.

The fixed odds site's ok though :evil:

It'll be back shortly after the big race of the day 3.15 - mark my words!

They have probably upgraded it again ready for Cheltenham, only to find that they have actually degraded instead. I think it happens every year I've been on Betfair.

Looks like I'll take a clobbering in the 3.15 ..... and there's nothing I can do about it and there will be no sorry from BF either!

I was lucky today.

But, I have been caught in the past and it has cost me dearly.

There is nothing worse than being in a "green" position and then not being able to "trade-out" because of a "crash".

You "sweat-it-out" whilst a race is "in-play" - horrible.

Some people spend all week working out their trades for the weekend. And this is what happens. Betfair is a worthy part of "rip off" Britain.

Sports betting software from Gruss Software


The strength of Gruss Software is that it’s been designed by one of you, a frustrated sports punter, and then developed by listening to dozens of like-minded enthusiasts.

Gruss is owned and run by brothers Gary and Mark Russell. Gary discovered Betfair in 2004 and soon realised that using bespoke software to place bets was much more efficient than merely placing them through the website.

Gary built his own software and then enhanced its features after trialling it through other Betfair users and reacting to their improvement ideas, something that still happens today.

He started making a small monthly charge so he could work on it full-time and then recruited Mark to help develop the products and Gruss Software was born.

We think it’s the best of its kind and so do a lot of our customers. But you can never stand still in this game and we’ll continue to improve the software if any more great ideas emerge.
