Bhagwan, I wonder how many of us Aussies Betfair has contacted about the minimum bet? If there are many then they might think $5.00 is too high, seeing that we can have $0.50 bets with the TABs.

Because of the potentially high liability I (and maybe others) like to test Lay methods using small bets.

If this prevents people from using BOTs then Betfair might just end up shooting themselves in the foot.

In spite of that, the minimum bet rule may hopefully be a blessing for me because my current Lay method is still steaming along after 201 races.
