    Two examples of blessing:

    1) You really liked a side and meant to play it but got distracted and missed the cutoff. Last week I loved the Mariners but forgot it was an early start. Because of live betting, I was not only able to jump in, but because they didn't score in the top of the first, I got them at a better price.

    2) You like say an NBA home team to win but don't like having to give up the 8 or 9. You wait until the inevitable point in the game when the other team goes on a run and takes a small lead, then you jump on them for the -2 or -3 since you know that in the end in the NBA, the home crowd + the refs will likely bring you your winner.

    Two examples of curse:

    1) You're angry at how your night is going, as either all or most of your plays look to have been completely wrong and you're destined to drop eight units on the night. You need a quick fix for this, so you see what's out there and you start betting without having a clue what's even going on in the games. "Hmm, O's are down five runs? Well, they'll probably cut into that, lemme go huge on the +4.5"... or, "hmm, this random west coast game is 2-1 in the bottom of the eighth, let me go huge on "Under 4 runs." By the end of the night, you doubled your losses.

    2) You're bored some night and needing action, so you start doing the most ridiculous of all live-betting options, the "First batter in the top of the fourth will: Reach via hit or error/ strike out or walk/ any other outcome." or, in the fall, "Third possession of the second half will open with: A rush for a gain/ a completed pass/ any other outcome." You do one for fun, lose it, say fukk that and add another, lose, get more pissed, say Okay for real, this guy is definitely striking out here, or this drive absolutely starts with a completed pass.. double-down, lose, get buried... Wash, rinse, repeat.
    The curses are not necessarily curses of live betting, just the very crappy options of live betting available these days. Exchange betting was absolutely great for the bettor. Smart balance and the line on any position you take stays open all game (rather than new lines always popping up), so you can cover positions, control risk, increase risk if you think the price is wrong, etc. without having to make quick plays on funky lines in tight windows.

    I consistently made money on exchanges and only bet live. Now gambling is an expensive hobby with live betting on sportsbooks.

    Live betting is a good way to win a little or lose everything.

    It's like having a pair of aces in your hand.

    Once you're on the wrong side of live betting, all hell can break loose in a hurry.

    I have heard that real crack cocaine of gambling is Lightning betting. I heard Artie Lange talk about it on Howard Stern once.

    You bet the over/under. If you have the over you make money on each point that goes over. He talked about some game going into triple overtime and he made a fortune. The draw back is you have to pay for every point that you are off.

    They offer that with soccer corners and I've been bitten badly a couple of times playing it.

    Just did this again this afternoon. Mad about a play I didn't get in that won, so jumped on a fairly random Angels +3.5 figuring let's just get this back. They will now fail to push another run across all day and I'll be out the original bet I never got placed, plus the new live one. Then I'll do the same thing with another game. We are sick people.

    Look at the opportunity you have! The whole thing about sportsbetting is to be smarter than or know an important factor not available to the bookmaker. You have # of fouls - free throws - injuries - in college - zone defense or not - press defense or not - what if you find out in the broadcast that the big star has the flu but is trying to play. Where is it you can get an edge that the bookmaker cannot possibly know unless they have a guy listening to every broadcast.

    Every bet has to stand on it's own two legs - has to have value at the time you make the play.

    nba has been unpredictable. Got in good with some live bets only to give it back on other games and then some.

    screw live betting.

    The juice kills me and trying to hedge a bet that I think is on it's way to losing. I have to stay off my phone with live or I'll start hedging hedges in the last few minutes of a game.
