A bad night of betting

Wednesday, April 9th, 2008

Pomey win 1-0.  Sheff U draw 2-2 after being 2-0 down.  No good for the betting.  Both bets lose.  Bank down to -£218.  Could be another short month this. 

Classic at Anfield last night.  Some crazy odds landed in running according to the betfair blog  I was doing some trading.  Had the draw when Liverpool were 2-1 up.  I was going to get out when Arsenal equalised but the penalty for Liverpool happened before the market settled and I didn’t get out in time. 

Liverpool were matched at a high of [8.0] in-running on Betfair to win a rollercoaster quarter-final against Arsenal tonight.

Arsene Wenger’s team touched [1.2] to qualify after seemingly taking a decisive away goal advantage with an Emmanuel Adebayor strike in the 85th minute.

But a Steven Gerrard equaliser from the penalty spot just a minute later denied Betfair customers taking the short price.

The eventual 4-2 scoreline landed in-running bets of [110.0] on the correct score market while over 4.5 goals was matched at [34.0] on the exchange.
