as a horse layer how are you suffering?

I was under the impression that the markets affected were only 2 outcome things like tennis, snooker etc where they were cross matching prices.

I haven't really read into it properly as I got bored of trying to read through all the rants on the forum but as far as i've read i can't see that i'm currently being negatively affected by anything they are doing.

If you can tell me what the SP Fiasco is and about the skimming (which they say isn't happening) then i'd be interested to know.

These were the sp that Betfair gave after the race yesterday 166% book.They have since changed these which has ment a lot of people have suffered.Now im not one of them i wouldnt use the sp system but are they beggining to lose some trust.As for my laying i know this dosnt affect me what i ment was if i went to another exchange would i be affected in any way eg price commision etc.
