registered on here and the odds are definitely better by all means, i just wish the csgo matches were added sooner, still waiting to make my first wager on the site.
Welcome to Fairlay! We try to avoid empty market or markets with bad odds. So we only add markets as soon as at least one of our market makers offers solid odds on the event. After that it is a free market...

That is correct. Hopefully we will have in the future more market makers that come up with there own odds, but currently the mainly aggregate them from other markets.

probably just me being uninformed, but mind explaining the difference between the "covered" and "open" odds? clearly the open odds are better, but i don't quite understand the implications of choosing either one. thanks.

Matched = same as betting on nitrogen (or any other bookie) Open = you are opening a position and bet will only stand if the line will move to match these odds
If you make a open bet you can always cancel it as long as its not matched.

Sure. So we are a betting exchange. That means you can choose any odds you like and you will have a bet if someone else agrees to this odds and takes the other side. The covered odds are odds we you directly will find a match. Someone else is already willing to give you this odds. If you choose the "open" odds, than you will create an open bet and you will need to wait until someone else is willing to bet against you. If no one does the bet will be refunded. So in the beginning we suggest to just take the covered odds, but you should give it a try as well to place an open bet a see if someone else will accept it. Edit: Thanks magic - that was quick...

is there a way, currently, to disable all the email notifications? I check back on the site fairly regularly for new bets, and these emails everytime a bet gets graded get annoying after a few dozen. thanks.

just wanted to let you guy know about a small bug, when i press the arrow buttons on the resolved events page: the buttons do not work as intended and instead redirect to this page: also, grouping lines by game / match would be incredibly helpful, its getting to be a headache looking for a specific line in the mess.

take as long as you need, betting has been incredibly buggy, almost unusable. bets couldnt be placed in some cases and bets were being marked as 'open' after the event had started.

12 hours... I think it's too long time for waiting by the way I will wait

A shot update. We discovered a problem with the cancellation of bets and we want to fix it before we come back. We try to be back as soon as possible but we clearly don't want to run the site with known problems.

For future downtime you should really put up a static html page. It's pretty panic inducing to go to the site and see nothing but
502 Bad Gateway nginx/1.4.1
