OK, thank you. I've never bet at an exchange. Not sure if I'll be able to figure this out.

Yea it’s confusing at first I was totally lost now it’s easy peasy like anything you do over over again in life

**littlekona** · 02-08-18, 06:51 PM

Are you on Washington or Boston? I like Washington

**Roscoe_Word** · 02-08-18, 07:00 PM

What preference should a sportsbettor select? Taker or Maker Taker. With an exchange is there a chance one could put a bet in, and if its not "matched" then it could be no bet? If I start asking too many questions just ignore and I won't break balls. Thanks

I took WASH +1 (-110) @ Bookmaker. Not close to figuring out Fairlay yet. What did you get for a line?

I will rail with u as I’m taking Washington ML too but waiting for lineups to confirm as once Irving is listed as starter I think line moves to Boston

I circled what the outcome is. For instance.... every outcome will ALWAYS BE GREEN. If you believe Boston +1 will win. You would select GREEN or in other words... ON. If you believe Washington -1 will win... you would select that RED color or in other words... AGAINST.

Nice of you post that, MS. I'll try and figure it out. You showed a good chart, I might be able to. This will get me started I think.

thanks Kona and TMS for helping explain how to use Fairlay. I've been on the site for the past hour and its still confusing to me. Never used an exchange before myself.

Bottom line, the "green" button on a given selection means you are saying yes to that line, correct??
the "red" button means you want the opposite, in other words saying no = i want the other side....??

For example,
tomorrow early line for Friday NHL. Over 5.5 Calgary @ NY Rangers..... the green button -121....this would mean I'm playing the Over 5.5 -121.....correct??

red button -109....this would mean I'm playing the Under 5.5 -109......correct??

also, how quickly do they grade, in general???

The under is +109

click on on the red against and it populates price in odds box...it’s just goofy thing exchange does but once us get used to its easy...play around enter 1 mbtc In liability box and click side and it will show profit

**hotcross** · 02-09-18, 12:13 AM

as bad as NHL been going lately, I'll probably get some quick profits going on Fairlay by accidentally betting on the opposite of what I think

like an automatic self-fade program by placing bets there.....

thanks Kona

Depends on sport and market but normally within hour...some are faster and it lists resolution time when u wager but its not exact....

**hotcross** · 02-09-18, 12:30 AM

one more question....is the site compatible with mobile phone?

ok 2 - is there any reason this would lead to a problem, ie. Fairlay thinking your IP addresses don't match for accessing the same account on desktop and mobile?

Ughhh is right! Tough one. Haven't deposited yet, but starting to understand. I think you're right when you say it will take some time to understand.

Repitition is the key. This is strictly BTC, right? I don't thing there is a USD section where one can hold one's money while not betting. Are these lines variant from the NBA dime lines offered at Heritage? Not by much I don't think. Thanks for the help. Gonna try and deposit soon. GL with tomorrows bets.

The lines blow away heritage( I love heritage too but for open parlays and live) ...fairlay are pinny, betfair type lines.....I check them all the time when doing straight bets against SBR odds tool and Fairlay is almost always better then any....Yeas its mBTC for bets only

I just checked the site out. It is very interesting how they have these markets set up . The fact you can add your own market too is a creative feature. Fairlay.com doesn’t want to be another automated bookie, Fairlay seeks to crowd-source information by providing a totally open prediction market. Functioning more like a conditional exchange, the website not only allows users to bet but to see public confidence on various bitcoin and altcoin related events, as well as sports, and YouTube views.

"How prediction markets
In a typical prediction market, users make a bet, in some form or another. On Fairlay, for example, a user may simply state a prediction, and give odds, and wait for another user to match that bet."

I haven't used Fairlay for a while but if things are the same, other than a normal player creating their own markets, there are a couple market makers at Fairlay that clone Pinny's lines for liquidity. It's similar to seeding. I'm not sure of the relationship but bets at Fairlay move lines at Pinnacle.

There's no relation between ownership of Fairlay and Pinnacle, but I don't know anything about the market makers.

**raiders72001** · 02-09-18, 07:22 PM

Interesting point Raiders. I hammered a line that Fairlay was offering on a Super Bowl prop. After hammering the line... Fairlay moved the juice instantly. 1-2 hours later... Pinnacle moved their line.... and copied Fairlay. It was an exact match.

You're onto something.

Parlays - can you make parlays on Fairlay? i don't think so but still trying to figure out the site

is that Fairlay also? how do you access that?

the black background site with plain text is what I see on the site and maybe its making it difficult for me to understand the site and where to find things

Ok Kona, seeing you constantly posting about it I'll give Fairlay a try tonight on UFC. Seems self explanatory now with one Green (if you're agreeing with the prediction) or red (if you are going against the prediction), but what's with the multiple green and red boxes I see in some offered predictions/markets?
