back bets matched at higher odds than placed odds

[BoogieWoogie]

I just placed an order backing a horse at odds of 1.75 when the market didn't have any laybets at those odds to match with.

Instead, my bet was immediately matched at odds 3.75 - is there any way to set a maximum limit on the odds that you'll allow you bet to match at, or is that just wishful thinking?

Many Thanks

As far as I am aware there is no way to set the max odds for a back bet, nor the min odds for lay bet.

Why would you want to?

If you place a back bet at odds of 1.75 and you get matched at odds of 3.75 then that is fantastic! You are getting far more "value" from your bet for the same outlay.
