      Best way to do it is to lay the bet on an exchange. Preferably select a bet with high odds, in this way you keep more of your freebet (75% is easily possible at odds above 5) and you win the bet less often to avoid rollover.

      Example:
      Free bet 500 at 5.0 odds - possible win 2000
      Lay the bet at exchange at 5.1 odds with 4% comission, possible loss 1620, possible win 380

      So always ~380 profit.

          Mostly use arbs to clear bonuses, or get volume up for some leaderboard competitions etc. Try to do ingame arbs, as its more difficult for a book to realize you're betting arbs vs pregame.

                But in order to play such bets at high odds, you need a large budget.

                  Naturally...some right away detected, some take longer. NONE welcome it, unless of course, the sharp book youre arbing one side of.

                    That's it guys!

                    I concluded my arbitrage adventure which I had started in 2012 Summer..
                    I think I had enough to get retired at 41, hehe.

                    Now just doing Value Betting for fun. It's more profitable then Arbitrage Betting in my opinion.

                    The problem about Arbitrage betting is, bookmakers are more smart in this age. When you're betting large amounts they easily detect that you're an arber. On the other side, when you bet regular stakes like 200-250$, you can use the bookmaker longer. The arb profit would not be worth of all the hassle with stakes like these so value betting makes sense.

                    Remember. Even if you're betting the value, still you're not prone to losing streaks, keep this in your mind.

                    Value betting requires less capital then arbitrage which is a big plus. What is so good about it? Well, you can put rest of your money in cryptos..

                      VALUE BETTING is way to go specially if you're betting LIVE.
                      It's absolutely NUTS.
