    Anyone use an arbing site like arbhunter?
    Just wondering, their site says they find several arbing opps per day. I have a pretty decent sized bank roll these days and now all the sports that I really like are over figured I might give this a go. They charge about $15 a month but if they do their job well it seems like money well spent as I don't have time to check every book for every game for the fukking romanian handball league etc

    Thanks

    Does not work because you need to bet $500 a game and then you will get limited at all the euro books to $50 a game

      75% on the books they give are very high risk European books
      and you have to be quick-not RAS quick but still quick
      best is try betbrain for a few weeks for free to see if you will stay committed

          Thanks guys. JJ I live in the UK so already use bet365, Paddypower etc. I've wagered tens of thousands at those types of books and never been limited once. I've even taken the occasional shot when they were slow to move a line for an American sport. As the whole idea of arbing is betting both sides but at different books I don't see how they can tell if you are arbing or not.

          Minet123 I will try that thanks.

                Thanks Coochy. I'd just love to know how the books would know when someone is arbing as they only receive a bet on one side?

                    Like the banks you'll find that all those sites r owned and operated by a handful of companies who share ur info with other books related to that company.

                    Hope this helped and GL

                        I see thanks guys. Arbhunter uses 29 different books, and you would probably need $500 in each for to work most efficiently so a total bankroll of $15k required. I'm going to look into it more tomorrow.

                          youre better off funding a few choice books and doing it yourself. Arbs and buy backs only work if you get paid by every book you use and the limits are high enough to make it worth while.

                          Seriously, the best way is to fund 3 or 4 really good places and have a local or two you'll be getting more than enough from that to keep a decent bankroll busy.

                                500 bucks? he is better off throwing darts and guessing.

                                you know what youre talking about?

                                500 on a -120 line means you could then bet 382 give or take on a +140 line which would require a definite buy back not an arbitrage. that means he would get back less than 35 bucks. Something around 34.75. At +130 he would have to put in 399 or so and his return would be 18 bucks. total waste of time with those small amounts.

                                if youre going to arb or buy back different sides of the same game you need to be able to put a couple thousand down per side minimum. Even then going by the two examples I gave 2K on a -120/140 buy back is going to get you around 139 or so. -120/130 only gets you back 72.50 or somewhere there abouts, doing these in my head so double check but I know it isnt going to be much more than that. And -120/130 is 2% and a little bit So way more than your 1.5 benchmark.

                                500 dollar arbs/buy backs @ 1.5% even with decent odds are less than 15 bucks. A complete waste of time.
