    Rabiddog33 why chance it with a book that is not even in our Rating Guide? We recommend you search this list for our top books.

    Because U.S. books have barely any markets attached to them and horrible odds for non- U.S. sports with tiny limits.

    I've used them all I want excess to Pinnacle and Matchbook, just like the good old days. I just want to know the best process of using Asianconnect.

    Get a VPN. Get Bitcoin. Sign up with AC88 for Bitcoin only account--I was not be asked for physical address. Be sure to use the VPN to access the accounts they set up for you. For Pinnacle you can set your location to Canada, for Matchbook try Finland. (Or maybe someone can tell me a country that works for both.)

    Hold your breath. U.S.-based bettors have occasionally been asked for info, and at that point you fess up and send them your documents. So far they've been cool with that, as they are more worried about fraud detection than screwing their grey market customers. But...unfortunately there's no best way other than the only way to use them.

    The good news is that Optional reports they have been responsive to SBR's inquiries on customers' behalf.

    Things change. If you go forward I'd appreciate hearing how things went for you.

    Because how else does a U.S. customer get access to Pinnacle which IS in your ratings guide?

    Sign up w btc Account...they won’t verify but use your real name ect..for me having access to the exchanges is most valuable...use vpn when accessing books...u don’t need to when in your personal account or chating them

    Pinnacle odds are good, it's just that too many professional bettors now use it, and I guess are using bots to bet on values. I have seen plenty of great values on Pinnacle, but they remain available only 1 or 2 minutes after the line just opened. Unless you have bots, I find it difficult to keep refreshing your page until the market you want to bet on finally opens. I mean I tried it a few years ago but it's very demanding, you quickly get tired of it.

    Could you please explain how it works in Mollybet? For example, I want to make a bet on a certain match, so I make an order in Mollybet and once pinnacle opens a line for this match, my bet is automatically placed in pinnacle? does it work like this? Is it possible to set a range of odds within which the bet should be placed so the bet is not placed if pinnacle has opened the line worse than I expected?

    Exactly this is how it works. If you only want to place your bets at Pinnacle but not at any other book then you have to deselect all the other books in the general settings.


    Is it possible to set a range of odds within which the bet should be placed so the bet is not placed if pinnacle has opened the line worse than I expected?
    You can define the minimum odds of course. The bet will automatically placed at the highest available odds.

    However, this order function is far from perfect.* As Mollybet imports the matches from Betfair many matches and markets won't become available for pre-orders. And it happened once that my order didn't get matched for some technical reason. That's why I was asking for an order service a while ago: https://www.sportsbookreview.com/for...r-service.html
    Obviously such thing does not exist


    /* And you don't have a "IF-THEN" function in this tool, so if you're not sure which line the book will open you have to make two orders on two different lines. For example: It's not possible to say IF -1.5 becomes available THEN place a bet with stake 100 at minimum odds 1.80 but IF -1.5 doesn't become available but -1.75 instead THEN place a bet on -1.75 with stake 75 at minimum odds 1.90. So you have to make two orders. One order like this: 100 @-1.5 @1.80+ and another order like this: 75 @-1.75 @1.90+ and if both lines/odds will become available at any point both of your orders will get matched. That's kind of annoying.

    lonnie55, thank you for the explanation. The only thing I did not understand is relation between betfair and mollybet. Do you mean that the matches that are not available on betfair will not be available for pre-order in Mollybet? If so, I still don't understand why. What does betfair has to do with it if my pre-ordered bets via Mollybet should be placed not in betfair but in pinnacle?

    Yes, exactly.

    If so, I still don't understand why.
    Neither do I. That's why I sent a request to Mollybet and Bet-IBC a few days ago:

    It's still a tool I don't want to miss. I hope AC will implement it into their AsianOdds platform and maybe even improve it one day.

    lol @ "recommend us to your friends", they really are aggressive in their approach.

    As for the Betfair offers, from my understanding, it is not possible for Molly platform to "create" markets on the exchange as the system is only "listening" to the offers provided by bookmakers; as soon as the market appears on Betfair it will be replicated on Molly surely. But if some other bookmaker does offer specific market, you can still ask for future order and system will pick up the odds once the market becomes available. At least it should work like that...

    I'm no IT expert at all but I guess the easiest way to offer all matches would be reading out the API of bet365 (like any odds comparison site does) and then import the matches to Mollybet.

    It's so annoying. Even if betfair offers a match it happens that they don't have AHC on that match, only 1x2 or ML, which means you can only order 1x2/ML bets no AHCs...

    How is there no solid order service for betting in the whole f*cking world? Is that even possible? Am I too stupid to find one?

    Imagine the useful information available to the operator that would come with this sort of service too.

    I could see it becoming a victim of it's own success if it had too many users though. Once too many compete for opening odds in any sort of automated way, the volume would result in no one being able to reliably bet them at close to best odds.

    Demand can be regulated by the price

    Take 500 per month and you probably won't have more than 50 customers. First come first serve.

    Take that 500 per month x 1 year and advertize for a programmer to build your own personalized version on freelancer.com?

    I tried to sign up. I ended up at AsianOdds (same as AC88?). I got a 2 day trial. I changed the settings to Pinnacle, but all I see is a board with decimal odds. I don't know how to convert decimal odds to a spread. In the NBA Denver is 2.441. I can convert that to a money line, but not to a spread.

    I thought I was gonna see the Pinnacle board with American odds, but that's not the case. Did I do something wrong?

    I used a Canada VPN to sign in the second time, but didn't see the Pinnacle board.

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    I figured it out. Thanks to OP and thread viewers.
