If you lay to liability you can only lose your stake,but your winnings are much smaller. You can set software to just take ticks or a percentage though.

 

Nah. I’m just gonna go for it and risk £50-£70 to win a tenner each time. Playing with fire probably but I’ll pick the races carefully.  Fuck the software. I’ll still be looking for perfect matches to back and lay elsewhere to try and hit FB’s and BOG’s, especially on a Saturday, but I want to take the time out of it all. Sticking to the exchange certainly does that. 

 

I’ve had a week away from it but I was fiddling around trading on football last night and came out £40 up on small stakes so thought I’d have a crack at horses until I inevitably get burnt. If I can get in and out before the off I will but I’m happy to let some ride if the fav is rightfully at a ridiculously short price.

You'll make money from footy if you are wise enough but the horses are a much harder thing to crack. I'd never understimate software especially for the footy.

Yeah, got Def Red as well.

I was backing it every week for the National, just £2 ew, 25s 20s then 16s, got me money back before the bookies  closed, hope it wins for you. 

I'll miss the race not being on, loved it since a kid, I was pissed off when it was cancelled because of a bomb scare in the early 90s, would of been 3 days good racing this week, bastard.

Same here, mainly the footy and racing. Not being able to look at the league tables in the Sunday paper, don't know about the classics coming up, the Guineas etc, don't hold out much hope for them. Grim it is.

Hate that Virtual Sports stuff. An absolute mugs game.

In a bookies by the site and me and the young labourer went in, roulette was all he played, when the virtual racing come on I said to him the people behind the counter get the coconuts out for sound effects, he looked round the soft twat. 

Yes it is shit but was told that they, the bookies, take plenty from it. 

I don't get it myself but saying that  virtual anything is shit.

The mate won £600 on his 4 rides that day, the other day he had 1£ Lucky 15 up 7/4, 7/4, 6/1, 40/1 £4600 odd return the lucky twat,  but they don't pay out the 10% bonus over a£1000 the robbing bastards, Paddy Power 

Frankly Mr Shankly has just gone in at 10/1, why didn't do it, twat.
