What a shambles with Smarkets this evening. What did everyone end up doing.

Had to use Betfair and Matchbook both having small bankroll in them. Matchbooks odds appear and disappear in the blink of an eye.

I had my lay taken by smarkets before it went down but the market still hasn't been settled yet. At the moment the bet (which lost) seems to be stuck in the Matrix somewhere.

luckily the 2up odds were terrible yesterday so didn't have much on, for what I did I used betfair.
There is talk of all unsettled matched bets been voided. I can't see it happening? @homie @Chrislennon1

Strangely, although a few of my bets from yesterday are still shown as unsettled (on the right hand side panel on the main screen) my totals look right and those same bets are settled if I look at the detailed account statement. Not sure what's going on!

If that's the case you would like to think there is a way of resolving the situation satisfactorily as I have experienced isolated cases of this happening in the past & it has been sorted ok.

Another free way to get bets, William Hill offer upto £200 free bet if you select six matched that will have either 3 or 4 goals.

I fluked it last week and got five out of 6 right for a free £5.

Honestly, I am no expert. Just any five and keep your fingers crossed.

I am, but can still make use of their boosted odds until I’m stake restricted on them as well.

So as a gub user, you make money by doing arbs and using their boosted arbs and get back odds higher than lay odds as much as possible and extra place until you are stake restricted on Paddy Power? I am not sure if you can still do each way when you are gub. Can you?

I wanted to get some advice, do you think we should be hedging Paddy Power on Smarkets instead of Betfair?

Paddy Power and Betfair are connected.
