Betfair

I've not had a good relationship with Betfair, losing every bet I've ever placed. I could have got out of a bet on Blair resigning (due to his 'family problems') with a profit, but I held on actually for him to resign, and the selfish man didn't. On the General Election I managed to place bets on two things that were almost impossible to happen together, which was the Tories get more than 210 seats but not get some London marginals, but not impossible for them not to happen together, so I lost both.

Anyway the current odds on the Tory leadership election are:

Cameron 1.7
Davis 3.4
Fox 8.8
Clarke 10.5
Hague 170

Fox is the best value at 8.8, I think.
