Betfair exchange mess up: how do I minimise my loss?

  • Ok here’s the deal. I’ve accidently laid £52 on Betfair exchange at lay odds of 7.2, BEFORE backing the same market (football acca) at the bookies at odds 7.5 – however it turns out that the MAX bet at the bookie is £25. This means I am facing potential loss of around £160 quid tomorrow at the exchange.

    How can I minimise this damage?

  • New to matched betting?

    My Matched Betting Academy is the best place to get started. Learning the fundamentals takes 10-15 minutes and you’ll make £15 in the process.

    You can place a back bet on the exchange – assuming there is plenty of liquidity! – for (probably) a small loss.
