90% of arbs have this combination : under at softbook and over at asian
bet under first at softbook , then bet over at asian.
Asians will let it pending for a while , if a goal is scored you suffer losses

10% pf arbs have this combination : over at softbook and under at asian
place over first at softbook , then place under at asian.
If a goal is scored , you have big profits

that's all , easy as fuk :P:P

big chance of loosing funds as over mostly pending @asians
So big chance of loosing all - meaning 10-20 bets more to cover loss :(

Thanks for a quick reply, but why 90% of the time i must place bets on under at softbook and over at asian bookie, and the remaining 10% of the time i must place bets on over at softbook and under at asian bookie?Can't i always just place bets on under at softbook and over at asian?Sorry for noob question :D

You misunderstood the mechanism. As an arber you are an opportunist, you bet what you consider it's profitable/risk acceptable for you and you will usually find more opportunities with under at softbook, although 90/10 seems a bit high, this also depends on what softbooks you are using.
Also note that due to goal danger a 4% arb for example on under is worth less than 4%, while on over it's worth more so you might want to keep this in mind when you set a minimum acceptable %.

min 2,5% - as always things happen and odds drop away for Under,
total loss due to pending, etc....

Ok, yesterday i found one football game,

willhill under 4.5: 2.10
pinnacle over 4.5: 2.00

If i place bets on both bookies on the same event i will get a profit of 100 - (100 / 2.10 + 100 / 2.00) = 2.3%.

Is this is how it is done?or i misunderstand something?

Pinnacle, 188 and singbet have a safe/danger zone pending time.
Means that if ball is on safe zone (goal kick, free kick on safe zone, throw in on safe zone, or possesion on safe zone)
bets get accepted right away.
SBO, IBC, ISN will not acceot your bets unless the ball changes possesion

Does anyone ever trade unders/over bets in here?Like taking an unders line in a game you think will be tight and trading out 10-20 minutes in when the price is acceptable?

Thank you all for your answers but, the only question now is is it profitable in the long run?I mean you risk a LOT to win little.

sure it is. you just have to be careful while betting in-play. watch a game's stream. bet when there is a short time out, maybe a substitution, injury or some other delay so you minimize the risk of something going wrong.
