Hi dallas.no i was trying to back a horse no 1 on betfair list i had it sitting in automation if it reached 1.66 then 1.27 back it twice just straight win no off set but it missed each time would it be best to use your most likley winner and change the odds i was just a bit worried when it went through as unmatched on both 1.66.and 1.27 thanks dallas

Because of the in-play bet delay as speed the can fall at this late stage then you will likely of just missed the price, you could 'Place at' lower odds, if you placed at 1.01 it all but guarantees you will get matched at something - you just wont have any control over what - it;ll be the highest odds avaliable when the bet reaches the market

Ps it's best to start another topic if your question does not relate to the one your posting in

ok thanks for that nice to know where to put things would it match quicker on longer races might not be as as much mayhem as sprints thought 1.01 would be the hardest to match .

If we done something over 1.01 would it still get matched at that or better?
