    Live betting is getting unplayable

    The spreads in the moneyline and juicing the spreads is more than ever. Taking advantage of the young or new players. It's sickening to say the least. They haven't shown me a decent number all day

    That can be said literally regarding Bookmaker. Never have anything I care about live. 100 CBB games on a Saturday and all they give you is UCLA/Kentucky.

    It's impossible. Then when you get a chance the line moves so quick

    I miss the WSEX live trading option contracts.

    That was good stuff. Every other platform seems so juiced and end up giving shit for numbers.

    The contracts were juiced too, but the platform was pretty good until it got busy and tough to confirm.

    I use to love Matchbook back in the day

    I made some good money just trading back and forth from the exchange

    Too bad those days are long gone

    Maybe we should make our own revolutionary platform.

    We'd probably get burned by good players then have to put up bad lines and high vig to stay afloat.

    Or we could make it fair and not get greedy and still make good money and attract players of all levels

    Gaming is impossible now. Computers have made it impossible. Hardly any lines with value anymore in any sport. Book's are dead on.

    I've been limited live as well, but never cut off.

    Sounds good but at one point it seems like risk management makes all the calls...like cutting players.

    Maybe there's a way to manage the risk within the software itself.

    That starts to become a Matchbook scenario.

    It's something to think about for sure. It needs to be catchy, fun, and still risk tolerant.

    It also takes a bit of capital but if it can get started, the sky's the limit.

    NBA swings do offer opportunities, NCAA Hoops too.

    It's best to know what you want before going in, even if you're just trying to get a better than pre game number.

    Sometimes you can be looking for a big lead and then comeback, but again it helps to know what you want before going in.

    Live action is a killer
    Hate the lines
    Love the action though
    Hard to win long term
    Find a spot while viewing the game and hold onto your ass

    I've had a great experience with LIVE BET this week. NBA has been especially good. I've been jumping on teams down 6 points and getting +200 at times with a quarter and a half of basketball left. Arbitrage out the other side when the lead changes hands. I love it.

    Stop moneylining dogs that are dead on arrival, bozo.

    There's plenty of edge to be found in today's gaming.
