Four Figure Profit
The Boston Celtics were upset tonight by the Charlotte Bobcats 114 - 106 in overtime. After the 19 game winning streak by the Celtics, this is their fifth loss in the past seven. Below you can see how I traded the game on Betfair.

Hi Scott,
I am regularly going in and out throughout a game. On the game last night I would have made over 30 bets and turned over maybe around $20 000.
Impressive.
Congratulations on that. I lost on that game 
got to learn to quick trade out when it moves against me.
Greetings from Germany and keep up the great work

I try to do as much trading as I can at odds which I feel that I’m getting good value for. Last night I was getting quite a bit matched.

Great work! Just out of interest, how much would you have turned over to achieve that? i.e. Are you taking a position once or twice, then trading off that, or regularly going in & out with 30+ bets overall?
