Laying short-priced favourites is one of the fastest ways to blow up a Betfair bank…
Unless you understand what you’re actually doing.
Most traders lay favourites because it feels clever:
“They’re too short. They won’t win every time.”
But that’s not a strategy.
In this episode, I explain when laying short-priced favourites makes sense, why timing matters more than pre-match opinions, and how to think about this market like a trader instead of a gambler.
We’ll cover:
- Why short odds punish bad decision-making
- What a “misprice” looks like in-play
- The game states where favourites are vulnerable
- The mindset shift that stops you forcing bad lays
