Somebody PLEASE stop me from wagering live at bet365

Holysmoke+ · Dec 27, 2004

for 2 games in a row I have tried to win at bet365 wagering live events.

Holy shiite, that is impossible.

It is no different than online crackjack. You may win one or two but you will certainly go down and lose your azz. At least I have.

what a temptation, to wager over and over during the game, it is certainly sucker bets.

Like all my online crackjack accounts I must close my bet365 account to stay away from this addictive and certain losing wager

In game wagering is new to me. I've just started following it at WSEX but it seems the vig is sooooooo high. When the game is close to the line you might get a 30 cent spread but other than that the vig just seems to be off the chart.

Is it that way at 365 too?

Holysmoke- The live betting at bet365 is difficult to beat because of the larcenous vig that they use. Their staddles are wide enough to drive a truck through. When you're constantly betting into -120/-120, -150/+110, -175/+125, -300/+200 and lines like that, your opinion has to be very sharp.

They are a solid book and I have an account there because they book a ton of soccer. I will be the first to admit though that the live betting can be especially good to make hedge bets in the form of going for middles on your original side or total and it's also a very useful tool to use for getting off an ugly bet you might have made. LOL.

YES!!!!!!!!! As previously stated the vig is horrific and playing live was fun for about two minutes, after that watching my balance fade, the fun abruptly ended.

I like it during baseball . .football will just suck the life out of you.

really like the O/U on hits for upcoming inning or placing a bet on runs scored next inning.

I do not like it

Only advanced type math minds can win at that

Two live bowl games tonight.

Don't play them unless you have Iowa+3 and you want to hedge, best when Iowa goes ahead in the game.

If you want to bet "in running" with low vig you have to bet with betfair - US sports markets are very good for liquidity if the game is being shown live in the UK. Tennis, Soccer etc are fantastic at betfair and can't be beat.

LMAO!! Funny Quote Holysmoke..........Not laughing at your losses of course, was, just how you put it. Hey, something similar that may take the place of and make it easier for you to stop is to start wagering halftimes. Maybe wager some sides or totals (totals usually work better) or something for the entire game, and then hedge/middle (midge) at halftime if necessary. This will add to your excitement, as it seems the main problem you have with the live wagering is your doing it simply just for "fun" as you stated. Doing what I suggested above will probably hold you over & help you forget about,take the place of, and help curb your "loss" in giving up the live betting while still having a little fun with it, and your balance may actually grow instead of diminish!

In game betting is sort of like day trading.

It takes a certain skill set to be successful.
