07/01/2013 | By | Reply More

In a brief statement issued today Ladbrokes confirmed the long runner rumours that have been around for some time, that they ARE in talks to acquire Betdaq.

The short statement said: –

“The Board notes repeated press speculation regarding Betdaq. Ladbrokes enjoys a close commercial cooperation with Betdaq and can confirm discussions regarding a potential future acquisition.
Negotiations are ongoing though at this stage there is no certainty that an agreement will be reached.

Any further announcement will be made if and when appropriate.”

The domain ‘ladbrokesexchange.com’ has been owned by Ladbrokes for a number of years. Any agreement to buy Betdaq could create a more potent challenge to Betfair.

I left a good job in the consumer technology industry to go a trade on Betfair for a living way back in June 2000. I've been here ever since pushing very boundaries of what's possible on betting exchanges and loved every minute of it.
