    10bet acting filthy

    Made a $300 deposit to bet on a soccer game this wednesday, home team for 3.09. The line wasn't arbable or anything, it was actually a 94% market.

    When I tried to bet them, it said "max bet is $50" so I shrugged and tried to bet that amount (needed to clear the bonus). The site then told me "odds have changed" to 2.95!

    Incredibly unethical in my view, and really really dangerous if you're an arber.

    10bet must be treated carefully.

    I believe there is a new ownership there, not sure if the attitude changed.

    10bet recently advertised on MB with a bonus offer of $30 or $50 .
    The book is relatively new . I believe they open in 2005 . I have no experience with them .
    My self i avoid them . Reasoning :

    sure yes, but look at this link http://www.punterslounge.com/forum/f...klisted-67053/
    someone from inside placed losing bets for bettor causing him intentional loss.
    this reportedly happened with betphoenix i believe as well.

    arber is someone betting on both sides hoping for profit.

    the link doesn't work, but anyway the guy probably chased his losses, busted and came up with some kind of inside-job-crap story

    actually, i really dont suggest people to bet as an arber. Normally u know the result of seize this kind of chance to gain profits by tricky is hugely risky. cos we shud know exactly our role at the books, we are bettors but not ricker or adventurer.

    Funny how almost 5000 euro got wagered live on 4 bets . Each bet is made 1 min after goal been scored .
    Inside job(it has to be management) . You can see time for each bet .
    What a great book

    but i guess this guy would have good case with their regulator. too bad he's not on this forum to follow up.

    10bet settled with a player and returned the funds . Don't know the exact detailes(i was not on the phone ) but they never admitted any liability .
    Must be the next door neighbor of 10bet that placed those bets 1 min later.
    LOL .

    To those saying "odds move, so what?"

    This bet was on a very very low-volume market almost a week before kick off time. The odds change wasn't caused by market forces, they simply saw that I wanted to bet it and changed the odds. Then when I withdrew, they charged a 10% withdrawal fee. Avoid like the plague.
