    Bovada Live Betting Issues

    Is anyone else having problems with Bovada Live Betting? My lines do not automatically update, i have to constantly refresh the page to update the lines and then it logs you out. I have used 3 different devices, 3 different networks, and different browsers and their app and the problem doesnt change. I asked the live chat and they said no one else has complained about it. The site overall has been trash since they changed it last July, especially the live betting.

    If you have any sort of ad or script blocker installed it may be worth disabling that.

    As trite as it may sound, clearing cookies and browsing history could have an effect too. If there is something corrupted in there.

    It sounds like something blocking the scripting for the inline updating.

    Although if it is the same on 3 machines... I dunno :\


    Plenty of Bovada users here. Someone should come along soon and mention it if they have had the same issue.

    Can someone do me a favor and tell me if their lines update on the live betting? i open up 2 windows and refresh one every 30 seconds and see no change in the other window. Ive asked friends who dont have accounts to look at it and they also dont see any changes.

    I'm outside USA so cant check.

    But if no one else has responded to confirm the problem yet, it's probably at your end somehow.

    You dont need an account to see if the lines update. I asked friends that dont have accounts and even a friend that has an account outside state i live in to see if their lines would update automatically and they stay stagnant too. So im just curious if anyone else on here has said anything bovada. Its not a problem on my end or its an amazing coincidence that all these people also see stagnant lines. Their live betting has been trash since they changed it last summer.

    You need to be in the USA, or dick around with a VPN though. They send everyone else to Bodog.



    Fact is all offshore live betting platforms get complaints from time to time. They can't use the same company platforms that are licensed in UK etc, so only get access to more limited offerings.

    There is a bit of a discussion about alternatives to Bovada with live betting in this thread: https://www.sportsbookreview.com/for...-new-book.html

    yes i have the same issue on multiple machines

    the most irritating part is if they put that captcha on there, and you have to select all the stupid bicycles or traffic lights every time

    i haven't even been live betting there lately because of those issues

    Ok, the lines not updating had been an on and off issue since they changed the site last summer, but it has never been as bad as it is now with lines being completely stagnant. And now if you refresh the line the page too many times or even open it in a new tab it logs you out and you have go through that captcha bullshit. I prefer to use this book for the specifically the live betting because of the unique props offered for football and basketball. But these issues make it impossible to use. Im disappointed they have yet to work out the issues with the site since they changed it last summer. Not sure why they changed it in the first place

    Milwaukeemike.....I thought inward the only player that disliked the wasted time of the captcha
    My Bovada acct has the live lines but as soon as you click 2 bet the line goes away with a line through the line.....have you notified Bovada?

    Yes, I notified bovada, today i actually see the live lines are automatically updating. So hopefully it continues to work normally.
