    Matchbook Liquidity Through the Roof!

    How has the liquidity in NBA just gone up at least 12Xs what I've seen over the past 3 years?!
    What gives? This just instantly happened tonight.

    Correct that, 100Xs normal. I'm seeing over a million in liquidity just on the ATL game tonight. Wow, something major going on here.

    Don't know how you can compare as it's only been very recently that matched volumes have been displayed.

    Overall they don't look overly huge to me but certainly the ATL game does appear to have attracted big volume.

    No, I didn't mean matched volumes, I'm talking about Lay/Back. Yeah, the game might have had 3 or 4 hundred matched, but every game on the board had over a million sitting there under lay/back. Something must have gone haywire, I guess. It lasted that way for about 10 minutes, then blanked out to well bellow normal.

    ok
    No, I didn't see those sort of numbers but it was more than 10 mins after your post that I looked at it.
    May have just been some sort of glitch showing up temporarily.

    I trust you mean USA, not Matchbook?

    Matchbook is terrific for US sports and soccer.

    Most of odds offered at Matchbook come from Matchbook itself - seeded by Matchbook.com traders (their

    employees, "sitting" at the Matchbook office). So if they decide to increase the volume (how huge the money on a

    match will be) at any match - they simply will do it...No "magic"here ...

    Only a small minimum of odds is offered by customers. It is clearly visible, for example, if Pinnacle.com website falls

    down for few seconds - 99 % of Matchbook odds immediately disappear and they are back at the same second,

    as Pinnacle restores its website. Or some of LIVE betting offers - also, if Matchbook LIVE betting "seeding machine"

    is not ON, there are almost ZERO offers...

    They are having a license for an exchange, but they act same as if they were a bookmaker.

    Sorry for my Enhlish, but I am sure you have understood what I meant.

    It is seeded money from book

    Volume does not increase overnight my friends especially a book that has not had great liquidy for 10 straight years

    Does not matter though because they are safe and have great tight juice

    Since when you need to fund the sportsbook account at mb via transfer from their casino? That is odd.

    I'm not seeing it. The liquidity still sucks for North American sports.

    Typically with an exchange liquidity is pretty low until close to game time.
    Matchbook no different. Good volumes do eventuate.

    Typical American attitude. The rest of the world doesn't matter at all.
    Very much the Trump way.
