Folks,
Could someone help with following please?
Placed a bet with bet365 on a the 6:15 at Worcester during week. It was in one of their special markets where you can bet both the horse to win and lose obviously at odds in their favour. Brampour was 5/4 to win and 4/7 not to win. They do it for every horse in the race and it’s separate to their normal win market. I bet Brampour not to win shortly before the cofavourite in the race was taken out. This obviously vastly reduced my chances of winning and greatly improved brampours. Obviously in the reformed market Brampour was odds on to win. He went off at 8/11 having opened odds on and remained odds on through the betting. I fully expected to be paid at the opposite price of 1/1. (8/11 & 1/1, 4/5 & 10/11 4/6 & 11/10 is the way the bookies normally price up these matches) but was shocked to be told I was still on at 4/7 and non runners don’t affect the price in these markets. Anybody who bet Brampour to win in this market as opposed to the normal win market would surely expect a rule4 as its only fair to both bookmaker and punter but these cowboys are saying it doesn’t work the other way. Am I in the wrong here?
