    Bookmaker.eu new live interface is horrendous
    It takes forever compared to the old version to switch between games. It takes forever compared to the old version to place a bet because clicking on a bet doesn't automatically open the bet slip. You have to manually show the betslip every single fcuking time you click into a new game because it automatically hides itself whenever you switch games, and sometimes you click show betslip and it just toggles the games display on the left instead of the betslip itself.

    And all of that to, I guess, make space for some totally craptastic oversized soccer animation? Really?

    Come on now- Make it 1 click to toggle between games and 1 click to display a bet. And allow for more than 2 games in multi-view, but I'd be happy with the first 2 for now.

    yep, they did a really shit job with this. it's a pain in the ass to make a bet now, takes way too long for live betting when everything happens much quicker.

        I'm really, really happy with it. One of the worst blows to my bankroll was when bookmaker changed up the ufc live betting. Before the line was available for 99% of the fight, with ever adjusting odds and I LOVED it. So many chances to hit underdogs for huge paydays with the insane lines when a fighter goes up a round or two. Anyway, a couple months back they altered their approach and the live lines were only open for certain random moments in the fight and I ended up moving to a different book. After hearing that they updated the live betting, I went back during the fights today and it's back to how they used to do it, maybe even better if they've cut down the accepting bet time (didn't test this out as I had no money in my account). will be depositing asap though. And maybe I will discover it's a pain to use but I'll put up with anything to get that amazing ufc live betting.

          Interface, not bookmaking practices. And they were absolute garbage tonight on live UFC anyway- no decision lines at any point during any fight and several fights where the decision was in doubt without even a ML offered at/near the end.

            If anything, they increased the accepting bet time for ufc. Tried about 9-10 bets tonight, with 4 of them being consecutive after every line change and couldn't get any of them.

              Its horrible. Wrote a complaint into them yesterday. I've made maybe 2 bets since the change, before I was placing anywhere from 3-6 per day.

                Who writes this silly software


                Europe, Asia and UK in a league by themselves with live betting software or for that matter any gambling software

                  I hope they notice these complaints and go back to the previous version of live betting software.

                    worse platform yet for live betting. put that together with the ridiculous payout fees and it just does not add up to an A book. they will pay you. so what shouldn't everyone be paid. that's the only thing they have going. nothing else to say good about the place.

                      damn...I can relate to that frustration. I remember a couple times I went wayyy bigger than I wanted (like 2k to win 1k and I ended up with 6k to win 1k), just because the odds kept increasing while I was trying to place a bet. One thing I did to somewhat combat this was to change the line setting to accept whatever line, rather than just lines in my favor. I only did this for plays I was very confident in and I don't think I've been burned by it yet.

                        it was like 10-12 seconds to accept a bet last night, in that time the odds obviously change and the bet was cancelled. Don't see a point in the live betting if it takes so long to accept the bet

                          is the mlb live betting or anything else 10-12 seconds too? Maybe it's just buggy at this point.

                              Na baseball is still good. Pretty much instant. Boxing/ufc have always had long delays.

                              In terms of the interface itself, I actually like it. Was pretty slow at first but seems better of late. Mobile is definitely improved. Makes it much easier to switch between games and betslip. The processing delays I assume are a separate issue.

                                Hopefully within a month or so they work out all the kinks and deliver a nice live betting product

                                Bookmaker has a lot of customers so I would think they'll fix it

                                  The previous version was great, all they need to do is go back to that.
                                  I noticed the BOL added those star things too, but they didn't F up their whole live betting with it like bookmaker did.

                                    Tell them you want an exchange back like betmaker.ag . I keep telling them. You were getting way better odds if you were quick enough and the live betting was tremendous when they had it during baseball playoffs , NFL sunday night games and Bowl games. Don't you people want to have some fun and make your own odds ???? It's not rocket science folks ??

                                      Betonline running much smoother right now than bookmaker

                                      I remember that Betmaker exchange it wasn't bad but no liquidity

                                        UFC delay much much much worse that it had been. And no decisions except the prefight 3.5s. And lower limits. Thanks for the nickel on the main event between rounds on a 20s+ delay. penetrating clowns.

                                          Also, for baseball it used to just open up all the games, so you could scroll up and down and see what was opening up for action at any given time... now it just lists them all, and you have to click them to get in, click back to the list, click into an other one. Ruins the fun and I'd think they'd realize they're getting more action by having all of them open.

                                              Looks like they don't want any action on live betting at all. Wimbledon Final yesterday had a 500 max limit. UNBELIEVABLE.
