Evening all,

I want to test some bets with a very low stake (£1.00).

I know the minimum on the Exchange is £2.00 but i'm sure I read somewhere, or maybe watched a video, showing how to do this.

Can anyone help please?

Bet Angel automatically bends the rules a bit to allow you to do this. Just enter the stake required, but there are lower limits than mean it doesn't work at big odds.

Ah really, thanks for that Euler. I'll give it a try.

All my bets will be at SP so we'll see if it works

Thanks for the reply

Be aware there are minimum stakes for Betfair SP bets so £1 will be too low to be used for back bets direct into the BSP pool.
[What is the minimum stake for an SP bet?

The minimum stake for a back bet at SP is £2 (or the local currency equivalent). The minimum liability if laying is £10 (or the local currency equivalent).]

Thanks for that. Yup, just found that out with testing a few of varying odds in the Exchange at BSP.

I was sure somewhere, there was a video on how it can be done, maybe with the Bet Angel software, but maybe I dreamt it

You can't get around the SP restriction. It's just the way it works on Betfair.
