Live bets

[inZane]

I don't know how many of you may have access to live betting, but I'm amazed at a game right now. Cleveland was -240 coming in today, and after only two at bets and a three run deficit facing them, they are now currently +160. I imagine since I'm posting this I'll probably lose, but I just think that's too good of an opportunity to pass up for a play on the Indians...

That's not bad at all. I know their bats struggle so perhaps that is part of it.

I actually have had some success the last few summers live betting Indians games.

Hope they hit for ya but 3 runs for them is like 10 for others

I actually have had some success the last few summers live betting Indians games.

I live bet them with the over last week when they were down to Miami 1-0 in the bottom of the first for a much cheaper price and got lucky.

Yeah, it's not looking too good here though...

 

[inZane]

Alrighty...

Both Miami and KC are down by one run, and both are +300 or so. I'm gonna throw a sawbuck and each and hope for one to hit.

 

[B.A.R.]

Good luck

7-0 the Rocks are up in the 2nd.

Can't see a reason to stop now. I've already got over 9, I'm gonna roll the dice and take over 13*...

I wish they were all that easy...

Does anybody else in here bet live?

One thing I've noticed and it happened again in the Phillies game is how quickly they change the lines after a play. It seems like it's close to 20 seconds or so from what I'm watching on TV.

Are live broadcasts really that far behind?

Ive always assumed a 30 second delay, I've heard the books have people in attendance at most every major event giving them real time updates just for live betting

I already bet the over at 9 and took NY -180. This is why I like live betting, I love seeing a big home chalk when the other team jumps on 'em early.

Took the Yanks plus 3* -170...

Well, I just got the chance to see a real time live line change while the game was on the radio. I don't know if there's a delay in radio as well, but by the time the D'backs scored the old line vanished in about 5 seconds.
