You're doing better than me then. I signed up for betfair but being a novice punter couldn't figure out how to use the thing and how to bet each way on a horse. Can anyone tell me what I'm obviously missing lol

Change from Full View to Express View to get a much simpler Betfair interface intended for novices. But after getting the hang of that it is in your interest to learn how to master every intricacy of Betfair.

Betfair does not have Each Way. You need to place separate Win and Place bets.

A betUnfair story.

If I find a too-good-to-be-true +100% Lay Market and go to town on it, and invariably lose then no prizes for guessing how Betfair Complaints would react. "Try reading the Market Rules you antipodean ratbag".

But if some websites lures idiots into such a implausible gambit, the Betfair will refund the money these fools parted with.

Reading through that I suspect this would be a bonanza for those who knew the rules.

Maybe the initial poster was a stooge.

At any rate all you need is for the wiseguys to offer backs ad nauseum to gobble up as many dumb lays the 32,200 views (to date) precipitated.
