Default Re: Betting on price only.

I didn't do the bet. I suppose if you take enough of these bets you will make a profit in the long run. I find it easier to take these wrong prices when they are the right side of even money (Levante 5/2 v Depor, Hartlepool 13/8 DNB v Grimsby to name two recent ones). If I have a slight fancy then I'm happy to let it ride, but with that one I'd have wanted to arb it, and there were no guarantees of being able to do that. There's usually at least one wrong DNB price each weekend so I'm happy to pick and choose.
