I have to figure out why this has happened and ensure it never does again. It's not a frantic inplay type situation where you're rushing to get a trade on. I looked at these last night and set the markets up on my phone this morning. I had plenty of time to realise my mistake.

The only thing I can think of that will hopefully stop me making said mistake again is to list the markets on my software in alphabetical order as opposed to by amount matched which obviously changes all the time. At least I will then know roughly where I'm looking in every single game.

Other than that it's concentration. But a mistake like that with big bucks would be so much more annoying!

In terms of my deposit I fully intend to take this back next month or the month after when it's not such a blow to morale/end of month figures!

Looking at oddsportal I'm not even sure there was sufficient liquidity there on the over 1.5 market so I'll strike the trade from my records.

I have to make a deposit to the bank to make up for this unfortunately as now is not the time to be showing a dent in the betfair balance when I have confidence everything is moving nicely in the right direction.

Massive faux pas which proves you're never immune to mistakes. I laid in the match odds for Estonia so a late goal went from yay to WTF!! I have to own this one!

My bank takes a hit because I'm trading for my cousin as well and the trade should have won! FFS!!

New stakes as mentioned above. Didn't get all matched on Sotra as liquidity not great and like an arse I held out for an ever so slightly better price:
