You can match bets 'in-the-run'. Today in UK SEVERAL got rolled at 1.01 odds!

I can't post the name of the company on here but I thought I gave a strong enough clue. If you want to bet in running on uk races or general SPORTING events there are OPTIONS to do it. :smile:

Cheers Dan, and they let us mere Aussies bet in running?

They certainly do Mark. They're not covering Aust. racing or trying to get an Australian licence so why would they care about our backward regulations.

I've had a good look last few days, many 1.01s have saluted but many have also been beaten. Remember this is 1/100 odds, and mugs (or 'muppets' as they're called in the UK) are matching the offered bets. Quick road to the poor house.

if you want to bet in the run from Australia but are stopped by the Betfair software due to Australian regulations all you have to do is get a program from free downloads available at heaps of places on the net that cloaks your IP address when betting ITR. Very very simple to achieve.

all you need to do is go to http://www.google.com.au and use the search criteria "cloak ip address"

that should point you in the right direction

i backed a fusaichi pegasus 1st starter from the stoute camp or brittian camp last night at either lingfield or wolverhampton from memory for the place at 5.50 called "excusez moi"

settled at the back over 6 furlongs, made headway to hit the front with 1 furlong to go and got collared on the wire to finish a close 2nd.

i looked at the win flucs after the race was finished and there was $9000 USd traded at 1.01 before it got pipped on the post

you only need 1 out of 100 to get beat at 1.01 to make a profit from it. there is definitely money to be made doing it but there is other factors and as we know 1st to offer the price gets matched on bf so you have to be quick after the off if you want to be the 1st in line

Not a good idea, your account will eventually be suspended as they will see you are betting on the run and match your registration details to your bets.

Thanks for the info, but I too will give it a miss. Don't want to risk killing the goose for the sake of an extra egg everyday.
