There were no corners in the game, bad news for the layer(s) who matched a total of £15 at the maximum odds of 1000. (First corner? Home / Away / No first corner)

Ended 0-6, remarkable

**EDIT** edi8's rules line would not appear to be from the correct market - here is a screenshot of the Chelsea v Spurs match tonight;


And the market rules;

It's strange that Betfair are offering a market where the fair odds appear* to always be in excess of 999-1.

*According to edi8's link


Are there any other markets like this?

Yes, I meant it. I wanna try to play on no corners.
I even don't know what will be better lay or back.
I think no corners more seldom than 1000 games, it's my opinion. Maybe I'm wrong.
I can open theme with this experiment if someone is interested.

Well a few Google searches point to a match back in 1931 being the previous 'no corner' game in the top flight, although you would have to take that on trust.

Imagine the stress of a £2k liability with 10 to mins go

While we know 1 game. And while back is better, because 1 game of 500 games per season.

Before this stress you win 6k and after that lose 2k.

btw in game Barnly v Leeds 38$ matched on 1000

If you split your £2k liability across a fifty odd games over the weekend then you would get rid of the stress. However I doubt Betfair would be happy about all the sub £2 bets.

If you did decide to do it for proper sized bets then I wouldn't take it on as a solo venture. I'd form a risk pool with a number of other interested parties. That way one loss wouldn't take you down. Also it would let you lay a load of games simultaneously on a Saturday without having to have £millions in your account.

What's the interest earnt/paid on £1k for a 2 hour loan?

The Wigan v Chelsea and 1931 examples were both in the 'top flight' of English football. What has happened in other leagues and in other countries is something for the 'question asker' to look at

Chelsea - Levski Sofia from champions league were a game without any corners too. I am not sure but I think it was like that.
