I've seen this on numerous markets over recent months - it seems to particularly happen when a market has just gone 'in play', or reopened after a suspension, or on markets that are very weak
Your eyes light up for a fantastic green and the money disappears before it's matched, as if it was never actually there at all

I can replicate this, you are looking at cross matching.
Switch off the virtual pricing and you will see the prices vanish. The market is malformed, there are only tiny amounts of money on the back and lay prices. Only one runner by the look of it.
Betfair don't expose virtual prices so the client has to create them, so this is why you see prices that are unable to be matched and why they vanish when you try and take them.
Got to settings/display and turn of the virtual bet display
Basically it's an anomaly.

The bf link is no longer valid but it explains what it is.
My head hurts
