You are so correct Chrome Prince, Betfair is on average, 12% better than any other betting site, take away the 7% commission and you are still 5% better off than any Corporate bookmaker.

With BF, you can set your own price, if you think No.3 in race 5 is a $3.00 chance and the best you can get is $2.50, skip the race. If there is no value in the race, win or lose, wait until there is. BF don't care if you win, they just want the commission if you do win.

Years ago, I started setting my own prices, at first, it seemed like a lot of work for little gain but after a while, you start getting good at it. Picking the right races and skipping those races with next to no value.

Races where there is 6+ horses under $10.00, skip straight away, also skip races where there is a Odds on Fav, yes the Fav can get beaten, but do you really want to take that chance? Look for races with a $3.00+ Fav and the next being $2.00+ more than the Fav but no more than 4 horses under $10.00. These races are the value races to invest in, why, they are races where the Fav is not quite clear and most runners are over $10.00 and regarded as poor chances.

A little bit of form analysis in these races and you will find you are now getting value for your money.
