I received a mail from Asianodds telling me that the first bet was voided due to ABNORMAL ODDS, AFTER the match
I had placed an unintended bet with them and therefore covered it at a loss 1-2 minutes after.
Obviously I took the best odds available with the other Asians including Singh offering something between 1.9 and 1.98 Akzhayik+1.5

As Asianodds will not answer a few questions I will ask them here:

Do you regard the first bet as abnormal odds?
If so then how is it abnormal?
If you don't, then what conversation have you had with Sing to protect my funds. I refuse to possibly believe that you would allow this to happen to a client without comment.

It's a well known fact Singbet voids bets, often for no obvious reason. You probably know this as well as almost all agents caution against this risk and advise you to disable the bookie if you cannot live with it.

There is nothing to be done and it's not Asianconnect's fault.

[Optional]

AC88 say that Singbet have been known to void bets after an event has been finished on the public bookmaker description page.

They also say they cannot dispute bet gradings for you with bookmakers in the terms.

Singbet attack arbers. Don't take arbs there, or bet there at all, is the lesson.

[agentxxx]

This wasn't an arb.The odds were not abnormal when the bet was placed.The second bet was placed less than two minutes later
If the bet was graded I would still have lost money.

[Craig22]

They are terrible. I traded live with them on soccer once; placed an arb, only for them to cancel one bet and cause me to lose money. What they do is simply illegal- no other way to put it.

[littlekona]

if JJ can chime in....I thought i saw somewhere that they where dropping them since they added 9wickets and Orbit....

I'd guess they think you were arbing it elsewhere and did the cancel just to try and hurt you.

AC should drop them totally. Rubbish book.

[Alfa1234]

No, they are dropping Sharp Star.

And I don't see why they should drop them. Singbet is great to mine value at a book that doesn't limit...only a small % of the bets gets cancelled and this is a clearly known fact. Don't bet there if you can't deal with it.

Whilst I agree with the personal responsibility thing, it does seem that this book tries to purposely hurt arbers after the fact.

Good to hear a real user opinion on why they should keep it though.

[Alfa1234]

Something no-one has mentioned yet: they also cancel losing bets sometimes.

[lonnie55]

Singbet voided like 5 or 6 bets in the last 4 years. They have an USP when it comes to minor leagues and they cover more markets than SBO, IBC and Pinnacle. If there is an alternative option on a market I would always take one of the other books because of the voiding risk. But sometimes Singbet is the only option, so I personally would never think about disabling them.

[Craig22]

I placed two bets on the same game with them, which was an arb. They decide to only cancel the winning bet obviously. If they didn't want me making money of an arb on their book, then they should of cancelled both bets, but instead they think they can just steal $200 from me by cancelling the winning one.

[moojoo]

You must be kidding. They should drop them yesterday if they are canceling bets without obvious reason. There should be only A rated books which Sing obviously isnt.

In my experience Asian run books have a slightly different cultural attitude to things they consider cheating. Singbet consider arbs cheating (I dont agree) so they feel it is justified to try and hurt you back. They know what they do when they do this.

If you want to play on the Asian sites then I guess you have to understand this...

I don't really think Singbet's policy is "fair" though.

[Alfa1234]

That's like saying a movie theater shouldn't show no-children movies to adults, because kids visit the theater to watch other movies.

They warn clients about it, if you want to take advantage of the odds and arb them...anyway, don't blame AC if you get burned.

[moojoo]

Ac is only to blame. Why on first place add that kind of bookies. Its same if they put 1xbet and warn clients you may not get your winnings.

[agentxxx]

The book may of had generous odds 5 or 10 minutes before my bet but at the time I placed they were correct,as can be seen by my second bet.
A straight book would only cancel bets placed between certain times and not every one irrespectively.
This obviously was not an arb but it was a winning bet.

As it took Asianodds 48 hours to reply to my complaint I had assumed that they had communicated with Sing.
After all,if a client of mine had so obviously been shafted I would be concerned

[lonnie55]

///

[agentxxx]

I am a client of Asianodds
It is obvious from the bets posted above that the odds that the odds were not abnormal AT THE TIME I BET

Did Asianodds contact Sing after my complaint?
Were Asianodds informed of the void during the match and only informed me after?

I don't know because Asianodds only send out their generic disclaimer

///

[Alfa1234]

Asianodds most likely didn't contact Singbet...because they know the response will be negative anyway. You should take responsibility for the fact you bet at Singbet and take it as a learning experience. Simply disable the bookie from now on and move on, there is nothing to be done.

99% of Singbet players know they void bets and continue to play with them regardless. If you can't accept the risk, simply don't bet there.

[jjgold]

I do not use asianodds so do not know about singbet

I just play wickets,orbitz, pinnacle and matchbook via asianconnect

I do not know why books even care about arbers because there is no edge on the so called weak side long term any longer

A lot of the weak side gets buried actually and books will never get hurt unless line way off

Vegas does same thing throws out arbers and they do not even realize they make money off most of them

Very ignorant statement. There is absolutely a weak side long term.

Do you think Singbet is at risk accepting arbers like Pinny does?

[Alfa1234]

Do you think Singbet is at risk accepting arbers like Pinny does?

Yes, because they are slower to respond to market changes and they offer a LOT more markets, making them vulnerable to sharp players as not all their markets are sharp. They also offer a lot of very small markets, making them much easier to exploit compared to Pinnacle.

Oh, so they are asleep at the wheel too often as the real problem.

But then act holier than thou the same as the rest of the scumbag books who think they have some right to intentionally punish arbers, instead of taking responsibility for their own business policies.

I take it back in that case. AC88 should dump them to retain their own credibility.

Singbet should payout and close accounts of arbers if they are too inept to deal with the action, not steal from them to punish them for daring to use the offerings Singbet published.

no such thing especially any liquid sport, the scalp sizes so small now basically no edge

Not on every game. By your logic, arbing/math value betting would no longer be possible.

I see your point, but as it's impossible to register at Singbet without using an agent of some sort I feel AC meets their responsibility by simply informing their clients of the risk there is in using Singbet.

[lonnie55]

Singbets has a unique selling point, why would a broker dismiss that option?

TBH I would probably not use AsianConnect if they kicked out Singbet without leaving the decision to the customer whether he wants to use them or not.

At Sportmarket.com I explicitly enabled Singbet since it is disabled as default.

I say, leave it to the player.

As Alfa said, the advantage a player can take from Singbet is significantly in the long run. The percentage of voided bets in my experience is <1% and not only winning bets but also losing bets are concerned.

I do kind of agree in principal.

But just do not like to see books that act like they can take money from arbers, instead of just banning them.

I dont know the % of business ac88 bring them but would be good to see Singbet being forced to change to a fair policy via agents refusing to send them business.

Do betinasia have a history of voiding Singbet?
I also hold an account with Premium Tradings and cannot remember them voiding as many bets.

You don't understand the issue at all...what does it matter who made the account? The bookie voids the bets, not the agent so your question is irrelevant.

I'm not so sure of that. Someone recently told me that he gets significantly more bets voided at Sportmarket.com than at AsianConnect. Maybe a coincidence but I would not want to exclude the possibility that Singbet's voiding rate varies from broker to broker.

[agentxxx]

I have placed multiple times more Singbets with PT than AC
I cannot remember PT voiding one
PT takes more juice on Singbet and the limits are far lower and that is why I opened an AC account.

Therefore Alfa I do understand the issue.
It is about AC as well as that scum book Singbet

[Alfa1234]

I'm not so sure of that. Someone recently told me that he gets significantly more bets voided at Sportmarket.com than at AsianConnect. Maybe a coincidence but I would not want to exclude the possibility that Singbet's voiding rate varies from broker to broker.

The reason being in this case that Sportsmarket has 1 account at Singbet (or 2-3) for ALL it's clients so it's actually dozens or hundreds of people betting at those few Singbet accounts.

It has to do with the account, not the broker the account comes from.
