This is just new isn't it? Or have I just missed it for the past year?

One thing I feel betfair is lacking is selections in the multiples. For example some matches might only have match odds available and others have all the markets available for that match.

Anyone know why this is?

Good question. Perhaps a mail to them might enlighten you and all of us

Maybe the games which are on TV are the ones with the more markets available.

Yeah this is more than likely the case. The full market is available outside the multiples so there no reason they can't use it. All the multiple is a view of the non-multiple market minus commission (I think).

Maybe the fact it's on TV would mean more liquidity in the market and they wouldn't get stung with any overly generous prices??
