Satellite users at disadvantage with live betting

Holysmoke+ · Nov 2, 2006

I just realized cable users see plays b4 me and react to live odds quicker than me.

It's been discussed before....3-10 seconds all the time.

You are 100% correct!

This has been a real pain in the ass for me this season with MONDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL MOVING TO ESPN at Matchbook.

I have all my local channels on real time cable, and everything else on Directv with a 7 second delay. Last season I was able to bet Monday night football live real time. This season its delayed being on ESPN.

The only thing positive is the fact that the offshore sportsbooks also get this 7 second delay having to watch the games on satellite with the delay.

Its not a disadvantage betting live on Satellite, but I lost my 7 second advantage that I once had before.

sportsbooks dont set the odds at matchbook, players do and those that see plays first have advantage, sux

I am addicted to matchbook live betting

Im an idiot. Your right.

I never really think about Matchbook on the offer side. Never ever made an offer at Matchbook, I just take offers.

Real good point.

Make offers that are in your favor more often than not they get matched

It reminds me of partypoker tables, where idiots go all in with chit

Cable is still slower than over-the-air broadcasts, at least mine is.

Thats why you need basic cable and satellite tv..plus the cable saves your @ss in inclement weather from digital hashing.

Also if you have a DVR (TIVO) it is slower
