But this is a subject of circumstances. To sum up, market experience is required to decide what to do when odds are blocked and markets are suspended. This experience will show you even more ways, not mentioned here, how to act in situations like this.

Post Re: Blocked odds Thu Jul 22, pm This can be good indicator, but please dont care about something like fixed matches. There are only few ways how to make money from betting. One of them is value betting Once again the key is find better odds than pinnacle offers and you dont need to look at information if ronaldo will play or not, or if there will be storm or not. You even dont need to care about stats. If you find better odds you got the value and you will be sucesfull in long run..

Post Re: Blocked odds Sat Jul 31, am So we are coming back to the eternal question, when to cover a bet and when to let it run. I would personally take option A to avoid the long path of market experience and to be sure that even a small profit stays in the pocket.
There are even software programs that will automatically find the best markets and odds to maximise returns. You can of course also do it manually yourself, which requires more research but is of course more profitable as you save the subscription cost. There are only two possible outcomes to each match. Now in reality it is often more involved than this as there is a process of odds and stake matching to maximise profits as free bet stakes are not returned , but the example above gives you the basic idea.
Whatever way you do it bookmakers hate matched betting as it takes advantage of generous offers designed to attract and retain customers. Punters should hate it to as it also reduces the generosity of offers to legitimate punters from betting companies. If you are caught matched betting you will almost certainly have your account limited so you cannot claim more promotions, perhaps even closed. Operators will also often share information so if you are caught by one or two you may find your I.
There are only so many offers out there and if you exploit them all with matched betting you will likely end up with a whole host of useless and restricted betting accounts.
Therefore if you want to match bets make sure you understand the risks. Arbitrage in betting is as old as betting itself. Often shortened to 'arbing' it is the art of spotting discrepancies in odds between different bookies and betting proportionally on all possible outcomes to ensure a profit. Arbing is something very common in financial markets, especially currency trading. It takes advantage of imbalances between markets that means if you strike two or deals at the right time you can ensure 'no negative cash flow', i.
You can perform arbitrage on anything where a trade is involved, not just finance and betting, but of course these are the most profitable areas and so these are the industries that arbitrage is most famous in. Most professional gamblers make their money by arbing. Arbing from a betting perspective in its most simple form involves taking a market with two possible outcomes, say a tennis match that can only have one winner.
You back one player with favourable odds with one operator and the other player with another operator that has favourable odds. By betting the appropriate amount on each see example below you can ensure a profit. This doesn't sound like a lot but do it enough on a big enough scale and you can earn a lot of money, especially if you re-invest profits leading to exponential growth. Easy money if you are not caught. Fixed odds bookies will limit you if they think you are using them for arbitrage on a regular basis.
The advent of the betting exchange by Betfair in also changed the game when it comes to arbing. Exchanges allow punters to in effect act as their own micro-bookmaker by letting them 'lay' their own bets for other customers to back, paying a flat commission to the exchange. The ability to back a bet, with a fixed odds bookie or on another exchange, and then lay the opposite outcome can again ensure a profit. Remembering the exchange takes a commission, which must be factored in.
Exchanges are more amenable to arbing than fixed odds bookmakers as the exchange simply only a commission on all bets. This means they don't really care if you guarantee yourself a profit or not as they will always get paid too. Many people who arb regularly will place bets with a local retail bookmaker and opposing bets online with another fixed odds bookie or lay the bet with an exchange. This is partly to reduce the chances of detection, with punters using a range of shops and betting in cash to prevent operators from knowing their exact transaction history.
The main reason however is that shops are far slower to react to odds changes than something like an online exchange, therefore when a margin becomes favourable get a bet on quickly in store and lay the bet online or back the opposite outcome with a different online bookie.
People who do this really seriously will visit a lot of different shops, know the shift patterns of staff, will wear disguised and even get other people to place their bets on their behalf. When arbing however you need to stake an exact amount that is proportional to the margin difference between the outcomes. These random bet amounts e. Another big giveaway is the markets you bet on. Finally the amount of time you spend on site is a giveaway.
If you literally log in, find a market, place a bet and then log out it is a fairly strong arbitrage signal. Most punters will spend a little time browsing, perhaps use a promotion or stream a live event. Most online betting sites now use software to spot these patterns, so it isn't just being caught by a real trader that is an issue either. It would also be wise to spend a little more time on sites, browse more, stream an event, read the site blog, etc. It will also help to use a wide range of betting accounts, this will help limit patterns.
To reduce sharing of information vary any usernames too and don't always withdraw all of your winnings straight away. There is nothing illegal about arbing but should you be caught by a fixed odds bookie doing it they will consider you a 'professional' and limit you accordingly. This is different to arbitrage, where you are exploiting odds differences between different operators and bet on all possible outcome to ensure a profit.
Bet hedging, rather, is when you take advantage of changing circumstances to guarantee a win, or at least reduce some of loses and the risk, often done with the same bookmaker.
Hedging for insurance allows you to minimise loses in the event of the odds drifting after you back it. Conversely, and more commonly, a hedge can be used to guarantee a profit. Let's take the above example but say this time surprise news comes out after you've backed United at evens that two key players thought to be injured are declared fit.
I won't go through the maths behind it here, as it can become complicated depending on commission rate and whether you are hedging between exchanges, fixed odds bookies or a mix. There are plenty of calculators available online that can save you any effort, after all this is a commonly used technique in financial markets.
Hedging your bets, as the saying eludes to, is just a form of risk management. Many would argue bet hedging is a sensible thing to do and why shouldn't customers be able to utilise it? Of course, the bookies don't see it this way. Anything that you do on a regular basis that increases your chances of winning will get you limited or banned. It is just the reality of the industry. This doesn't mean you shouldn't hedge your bets, instead try to vary the patterns as much as possible.
Just like with arbing you need to make yourself seem 'normal' by doing things typical punters would do. Therefore don't always use the account just to hedge, don't always place bets with random stake amounts, use multiple non-connected betting sites, spend more time on site, etc. Free bet and bonus abuse is perhaps the primary way that most non-professional gamblers get limited, apart from through matched betting.
Betting online is a hugely profitable industry with relatively low overheads and high profit margins. It is also a massively competitive market and therefore brands must also provide reasons for you to bet with them, this can be unique bets, features, markets, streaming availability or by having the best overall site. Generally, however most bookies get you through the door using generous introductory welcome offers and they then try to keep you there with regular existing customer free bets.
Therefore why should you end up having your account limited if you utilise these regular customer offers? In some cases they found they could not bet at all after signing up with certain bookies. If so, then this suggests their technique really was finding the best odds out there. But the house still always wins in the end. Reference: arxiv.
