have to disagree merriguy, as my experience to date is that the majority of the time i can obtain a minimum of 5% better div (usually much more), not winnings, yesterday's not a bad example -

uni $1.40, bf $1.50 - net win uni $0.40 - net win bf $0.47
uni $1.70, bf $2.10 - net win uni $0.70 - net win bf $1.05

so $1.10 against $1.52, & this type of result has been fairly typical, & as there's plenty out there that want to lay you at the moment, competition for a bettors dollar appears strong in the larger markets.

will it last? or will increased usage of betfair by aussie punters bring the markets closer into line with the tabs? i spose the pommy experience may be able to give us an idea, anyone?
