Hello, i dont know if anyone is still reading this but i have a problem with the new software. I dont know if i'm blind or stupid but i just cant seem to login in new client! When i start it it i click login (purple button top left beside avatar) it opens up login screen and when i log in a NEW "browser" window pops up and i'm just logged in there but not in the client!? I still see the purple login button and avatar grayed out. And if i click it again it just highlights the browser window.

I tried reinstalling, rebooting, run as admin, all compatibility modes, wrote to support but they havent send me any new ideas I'm on win 8.1. Oh and i cant seem to close that browser window it has no borders to click on "x". I dunno if i'm missing something obvious here

If anyone has the same problem or knows how to solve this pls let me know.

Thx

Are you using two-factor authentication perhaps? If so then you have to turn it off.

HUDs on speed poker with new betfair software won't work.

I tried emailing hm2 support even paid 60 bucks for their premium support.


I rolled back to the old software. HUDs work fine now

Hi,
As soon as I lose internet connection for a nanosecond then Betfair instantly closes all my tables down (I play mtts) . So I am instantly folded in any hands I am involved in . Plus it takes some time for me to find my tourneys and reopen the tables etc

Support told me to try uninstalling and then reinstalling .. (have you tried turning it off and on again basically )

Any ideas ?

Other sites work 100% fine

I have a backup internet also but it takes a few seconds to switch over . Unfortunately in that time Betfair will have closed all my tables

Hello guys, I would like to ask if someone knows what is rake on betfair twister poker games? because i had strange conversation with their suppor today.
Rebecca B : Hello welcome to Betfair you are chatting with Rebecca B. How can I help?
Deividas: hello, i would like to know how much rake is on twister poker games, because FAQ tells it is maximum 10%, but between 0 and 10 is actually big gap
Rebecca B:
Please bear with me for a moment while I look into this for you.

Deividas: thank you
Rebecca B: Fixed Limit Rake: $0.02/$0.04 - $0.05/$0.10
Deividas: I am asking about twister poker, not cash games
Rebecca B: Bear with me for a moment please.
Rebecca B: Ok so this depends on the buy in amount.
Deividas: yes, i know this
Deividas: how much on 10e limit? how much 20e?
Rebecca B: I'm terribly sorry to keep you waiting. I'm still looking into it for you.
Deividas: no problem
Deividas: its strange that it is hidden
Deividas: because maximum 10% says nothing to me
Rebecca B: Ok so the Twister Poker SNG Jackpot Payouts are as follows:

€1 Buy-In €2 Buy-In €5 Buy-In €10 Buy-In Probability
€1,000.00 €2,000.00 €5,000.00 €10,000.00 1 / 20,000
€200.00 €400.00 €1,000.00 €2,000.00 1 / 20,000
Deividas:
Deividas: I think you still don't understand what i am asking
Deividas: I am asking about rake not probability of jackpots
Rebecca B: Can you follow this link just so we can confirm that we are talking about the same thing please ?https://poker.betfair.com/en-GBR/promotion/vip_club/
Deividas: I am asking one thing, you answered me about another
Deividas: Rake is the fee charged by Betfair on both real money cash tables and real money tournament registration. It is also known as the house fee.
Deividas: this is from your website
Deividas: So i am asking how much Rake is on twister poker games on 10 and 20 euros limits
Rebecca B: I have checked this with my manager for you and the first link which I sent you still applies to Twister.
Rebecca B: Can you try this please? https://en-betfair.custhelp.com/app/...ake-charged%3F
Deividas: In Tournaments:
Never more than 10% of the tournament buy-in depending on tournament structure/stake.
Deividas: Can you ask your manager how much exactly is never more than 10%, because it is not a small gap between 0 and 10
Rebecca B: Can you follow this link please? https://support.betfair.com/app/answ..._id/375/c/484/

Go to and follow the procedures on http://www.betfair.com/aboutUs/Dispute.Resolution/# and insist that there should be a table to show the rake for the different tournament structures and stakes.

wow, gold medal for sarcasm. I dont think its bad to ask how much theyre taking if they are saying it is max 10%, or you think there is no difference between 5, 6, 10 ?

I was agreeing with you. I spoke to a Chat Rep after I saw your post, and, actually, they agreed with you, too.

When I asked how I could make a formal complaint that there was no such table, the Rep gave me the above link. If I still played there, I would have followed that process, as I think it's ridiculous that they don't have such a table on their site.

Just finished a session, wanted to convert my vpp to money. Click on cashier but I get a new window which doesn't have the option to convert vpp, it does have the option to convert comps but I have 0 points of those. So I talk to support and he manually converts it for me. Obviously I want that convert vpp to money button back so I can do it myself. Anyone else has this problem?

Can people access the main betfair.com web site?

There is potentially a DNS block starting here in Slovakia of Betfair and some other sites, however the other sites still work and setting a proxy DNS server appears not to have fixed the problem.

Does anyone have any experience with Betfair? I used to play a lot of poker before UIEGA and mostly stopped after. About 6 weeks ago i decided to play a bit of PLO just for the heck of it and joined befair.

To be honest i didnt play much, maybe 10-15k hands and won slightly (rakeback/bonus)
On saturday i decided to say **** it and bet 50€ on a ufc fight (namajunas vs joanna), i won 250€ and decided to cash out those winnings.
The next day i got an email saying my account had been closed.

Quote:
"We are sorry to inform you that your account with Betfair has been closed. This decision has been made by our department on business grounds and in line with our terms and conditions."
Thats the whole email. I responded (respectfully) asking why my account had been closed and whats gonna happen to my funds and today i got my response:

Quote:
"We are sorry to inform you that your account with Betfair has been closed and funds will remain in the account. This decision has been made by our department on business grounds and in line with our terms and conditions."
Again, thats the whole email.
Ive tried to talk to the live chat but they dont have the tools to investigate further (at least thats what theyre telling me).
So am i just ****ed here? Fwiw i didnt do anything that should lead to my account being closed (afaik). I didnt collude, i dont have multiple accounts, i didnt use illegal software (just omahamanager), i didnt even sign in from any other computers.

I feel like theyre just stealing my money at this point. Them not even telling me why my account is closed is driving me crazy. Does anyone have any experience with Betfair or similar situations? Any help would be appreciated.

Did you use Betfair sportsbook or Betfair exchange to place the bet?

If the former then you've basically won 200 euros direct of their own money and they don't want you any more. What is your location? You mention UIGEA but Betfair don't serve US customers.
