    Didn't want to see off any alarm bells by using the word arb
    in the title in the offchance a certain bookie might be looking in.
    It's probably unlikely but you never know


    it's rare you see this
    at it stands it 11/10 perez evens caraway
    In the unlikely event of a draw which may happen once
    every year or less then it's a refund anyway

    take a profit of 28/29 euro by backing both but going for perez myself
    got 600 on caraway myself at evens with 365 last nite
    same on perez at 11/10 with boyles

    You did well to get 600 on with each of those bookies on a non Grade A event.

    I've the same done also except I guranteed profit if either win as mailburner said.

    I've no idea how much I could have got on with boyles
    at least with 365 you know what the max is
    Must say I thought the max with boyles might have been less than 365

    I was surprised to get that much on allright with either

    I back all losers I assume that's why I got on with Boyles. I always back mickey mouse stakes though so was still nervous enough that they wouldn't take it.


  • Registered Users Posts: 23,814 ✭✭✭✭mailburner


    boyles have finally cut perez to evens
    i'd imagine a few got on given skybet are now 4/5
    from evens also on caraway

    hopefully a few got on

    Can some1 explain what just happened here

    You backed Perez @ evens
    And caraway @11/10


    So if you put 100 euro on both

    You make 0 profit on Perez(if win)
    You make 10 profit on caraway(if win)

    And if it's a freak draw you lose 200


    Is that correct?

    Cool cheers man

    Don't think you lose if it's a draw because "Draw" is not quoted in the market. Bets would be void (stake returned) in this case AFAIK
