You're quite right Angry Pixie, but only if you knew in advance which bets would be matched or they were both already going to be matched.

I fire about 10 back and 10 lay bets on a horse at once.

It's virtually impossible (for me) to read which way the market will go and if only one side will ever get matched.

So when a back/lay bet gets matched, I green up that position alone and let the others ride.

The reasoning behind this is that I'm effectively getting better odds on the outstanding matched bets by using the greening up as leverage.
