    Varies by sport.........

    The usual suspects

    BetOnline, Circa, Bookmaker, Lines(bases), ..............sometimes you will see a couple other shops such as Westgate way ahead of the move by an hour or so.

    Yeah, something like this^^^

    It doesn't just vary by sport, it can vary by time of day and time of week. This gets past many, they don't see it, but can be important to recognize.

    Guys like FH and other Professional Gamblers often study the real time line screen 16-18 hours a day.

    Saw somewhere that the "release" date should be around the 20th.

    Might be a good think for the recreational $50 bettor.....................

    Is there any confirmation that the odds will actually be real-time?

    I guess we'll find out eventually. It'll either be a revelation or a complete dud. Nothing in between.

    I can't confirm, brother. I just saw this stuff on twitter.

    My impression is that technology has improved to the point where these feeds can "hit our screen" within 30 seconds.

    Probably live, but that, I think might be a premium subscription. Just speculating.........

    They haven't said anything about a premium subscription, but of course things in the future can change.

    30 seconds is not real-time. Real-time is real-time. I guess maybe 1 or 2 seconds grace, but anything beyond that is not real-time.

    A 30 sec delay shouldn't be an issue for most.

    The key is monitoring the screen 16+ hours a day like most Professionals.

    making a server request every second or two puts 15-30x more load on them than 30 second updates and pisses people off in my experience.

    Could be part of it.

    I notice a lot of places now are including offshore Sportsbooks on line services

    I think they realize just having USA books is meaningless

    As said before, a 30 second delay is completely useless. If it's not real time (like Don Best) then I have no use for it.

    Yeah, we set something like that up a while back but in the end it's better to try to negotiate with whomever you want lines from. Would much rather have a "push" to my systen the required constant pinging for a reliable "pull" to bring in the info.

    On a trivial note, a feature might be an audio clip: "Major Line Move" as seen in the Ba Ba Batista movie of a few years ago.

    Without giving away you're crown jewels on this monitoring do you hedge most games or gamble on the books lean?

    No one understands what you're talking about, place a couple of bets and get acclimated with the game and then check back in
