Miracles never happen. You might be able to trade out for a smaller loss in play though if the Ward bloke somehow goes a break up or can keep it close until near the end of the set but I doubt he will. Ward is GBR player ranked 382 and playing on clay, how many even average GBR players have there been on that surface? Not many.

300 euros can be recovered in a few days 540 will take nearly double the time.

Someone else layed Fognini 1st set winner at 2.00 when the true price is around 1.25. People make mistakes on exchanges all the time, it's amazing the amount of times you can get matched at silly odds on there.

Miracle did not happen. Fognini won 6-3 the first set.

How did they void your bet?
That's not usual. I tried to void some bet in the past and could not do it.

Yes. You could also bet the other outcome for a small loss. I meant without paying

Hi there

Today I just find this forum.I arbing 2 years.
My bigest mistake was - 4,5 k on NHL between marathonbet and bet 365 ,this arbs showing oddsportal and I fall in this.Target market was under over 5 goals. There was difference in T@C ,before I 3 days succesing arbing and earning about 1,5k. But this -4,5 could be about 12 or 14 because only 2 games on this days ended 2-2 ....

BOV = Bet On Value.

They usually have this problem. They show great odds on Betfair, but when you go to Betfair the odds exist, but on the opposite outcome. If you bet in a hurry, you may bet wrong. It happened to me once, long time ago, and after that I am very careful.

My biggest mistake was an arb on HT/FT Market,FRA Ligue 1. Back at 10bet,lay at betfair.
Tried to place both bets. Betfair worked.
10bet...frozen...what the hell,FUCK!
Refreshing the site helped,but then I´ve been in a hurry. Lost about 20-30 sek until the site Comes up again.
Did not look exactly,and did not see that my game wasn´t the second on the list anymore.
Bam! Lay paris at betfair,and backed Bordeaux!
So I had to wait,started an Analysis,and came to my conclusions: Bordeaux let go. I wasn´t sure about Paris,so I decided
to trade out with a small loss.

Very lucky! My mistake was a +/- 0. Paris small loss,Bordeaux winner through Full time.
I lost 1 year of my lifetime because of that shit...  :D

Not a mistake...but I lost a bet today because Nacional - Porto was abandoned with 15mins to play yesterday.  The last 15mins were played today.

Soft settled, pinny voided...the soft lost.  :( :( :(

I don't think there's anything I could have done but it still hurts a bit.
