    Look for poker exchange on that site. Does anyone play this? If you had pokerstove open beside you could it a good bet to take? Or are the odds it gives worse than what you would need. You can request your own odds on it.

    I'm not really sure how it all works, but it seems like you could make some pretty handy bets on it.

    its a battle on whos robot works the quickest.
    most guys have automated robots placing bets giving joe punter marginally poor odds and in the end, he goes broke.
    and if u lay anything at any sort of price thats -ev for u, its snapped up str8 away, and if u lay it at +ev, it wont get matched !

    Betfair has already let it known that they run bots on their own site. I did see this before and I would imagine like 95% of the bets are placed by themselves (if you look they always have the same spread). In this situation the user is always -EV as the odds they are being presented with make it mathematically unwise to get involved long run.

    It is interesting though to watch for a while and compare what you would have thought the odds in a given situation are, to what they actually are.
