Live betting while watching game live on stadium

divitae · Jul 9, 2007

Anyone tried ? Betfair offers live betting and you can bet on mobile phone.

So you are going to stadium, watching game and i'f someone scores then you make bet as fast as possible. And you are still faster than 99% of bettors that are watching few-seconds delayed TV transmission ! Betfair is betting exchange so bettors make odds not bookie and that's why you can be faster.

After someone scores odds are changing rapidly, so you propably could make bet on "old" odds. After odds changing you can close bet (lay bet) and make something like surebet. Absolutly no risk profit.

I'm from europe so i can't do this trick but i'm very curious if it work. Anyone tried ? Or if anyone want to try after reading this text then please tell me if it works

[sorry for poor english]

You again and your "great" advices ? Propably you even didn't heard about betfair and you're trying to be smart ass.

Odds on live betting on betfair are changing ONLY when bettors react. If i'm 10 seconds faster than 99% of bettors that are watching game on TV then IT MUST WORK. Simple.

the hole in your logic....mosty places that currently offer live wagering...if u have ever done it...only offer live bets during half innings.......beginnings, ends, etc....once play begins...u cant simply wager at an exact moment.......if u view sites like wsex...or sportsbook and actually try this sometimes, there are 2-3 minute periods at times where betting is not available becs game is unfolding...have u ever even placed a live bet?

Hm...actually it does work. At least with sportsbook and their sister sites because they hang the live lines up during the action. However, you must submit the bet RIGHT when the ball hits the bat and you realize it's a base hit, don't wait for the play to end.

i made a lot of live bets, on betfair you can bet moneyline during whole game, odds are changing when something is happening and people are taking off or putting on their odds (it's betting exchange, bookie isn't involved in making odds)

and again - on betfair odds are not hanged during action so if you can react faster than other bettors that are watching game on TV (and tv broadcast is 3-5 seconds delayed) then making money is EASY.

but if you don't know what betfair is and how it works then there is nothing to talk about.
