    media saying it's still too close to call.

    Yeah, upon reflection saying its a done deal is premature, but think those late polls tonight and the betting market on BF really is not good news for Leave

    Although I scolded people last week when they said that Italy were no value v Ireland, so I can be as wrong as anyone:o:pac:

    Agree there's so many factors in this unprecedented event, Boris (surprisingly) did a decent appeal on Sky tonight liking it to Independence Day.

    Even the North which is presumed to be 1.03 for remain, had their main party take out a 4-page wraparound advertisement in the Metro (4m commuter views). Polls with typical sample sizes of 2,000, need an air of caution compared to the silent/silenced 40m circa mid-lower-England Tesco/Adsa shopping C&D's making their daily grind. Heart vs Head.

    Hypothetically, even now if you went 3,000 @1.33 and 1,000 @4.33, the most you could loose would be 10 notes, or gain 330.

    sharp drop in the pound. sky news is the place to be tonight!

    ... May even be worth seeing what happens in the 12.30am Sunderland EI/1st result, they should have 6pt lead for a tie to occur.

    #sweatyfxtraders could be trending shortly, a great name for a rock band also.

    Think snapback is the popular term for this sort of thing, still early days Cameroon will be on the toilet for a while yet.

    Unprecedented swinging, it was around 8.0 few hours ago with Skybet.
    Timing and patience appears to be the name of the game.

    it's madness altogether on betfair. remain went from 2.3 to 1.8 right after glasgow vote then back out to 2.2...it's now 1.9 again.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 39,565 ✭✭✭✭Mellor


    lol, You can back both side >evens if you wait around and look in the right places.
    Great times for anyone who laid bremain when it hit 1.2 :D:D:D:D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 39,565 ✭✭✭✭Mellor


    50-55 remain is now odds on, thats grim

    This is buying money.
    A dead cert.

    squeaky bum time it's out to 2.4 now. the money in the market hadn't a clue whether it wins or not

    Luckily for Walter Mitty, he probably had nothing on it

    he did post the screenshots 2 500e bets on pp. it seems they are now deleted. peanuts in comparison to the 130,000,000 matched on betfair.

    all but over now. remain 250/1 on betfair. out unbackable.

    just goes to show there is never a dead cert. hope there wasn't too many who followed "poa". i put 40 on remain the last day for the interest at about 1/2 as i fancied they'd edge it. the media told us it would be close so am perplexed as to how remain was so short(sub 1.2) before any results were coming through.

    No doubt an insider will have warned him when Leave hit 6-1 and he got 7 figures on

    Meh, posting screenshots and then deleting them isn't huge evidence to be honest. Especially when somebody had been caught out in multiple lies

    I wonder will night still follow day?

    Pretty sure its the same guy who had "10k" on Boyhood to win best picture: http://touch.boards.ie/thread/2057349636/1

    Never seen somebody to devote hours of text to a 1.5 shot and it then to lose. Hilarious!

    Only backs sure things, might throw a wedge on Klitschko as Fury is also a sure thing :)

    Watching the volatility this morning in the betting markets was crazy. Some money to be made this morning when the numbers started rolling in.

    I've no idea what that means. Maybe?

    Poa may want to re-think those large singles on Alex(BB), Clinton(USA) & Fury,
    seems night doesn't follow day, and the only certain thing are death and taxes.

    Think this may set a precedence for Scotland's independence, a NI border poll and even a Trump win across in the US.
    Well done to anyone that played a long waiting game and picked off any value when/where available.

    What he does have in his favor is that they are not real

    Please stop discussing that guy.
    He is banned, he is a re-reg (Mrs brown boys ring a bell?) so when he enters the arena again, just report him.

    Thanks

    To be fair, it was obviously a re-reg/nonsense account from the start. I assumed he was one of the mods having a laugh :pac::pac:
