The only hope for arbing to continue are Exchanges that only care about volume, who balance their action and don't mind winning players. That used to be Pinnacle, but they are the sharp side. Exchanges tend to create a sharper market, so we might not find an Exchange that offers a soft line to get an arb opportunity.
Re: Got Limited By Most Soft Bookies, What's Next?
The soft books are catching on that they are being used, so they are cancelling bets where they look back and see that they got caught. They will say it was a palpable error, obvious line error, even if their line was not THAT far off. Or they are limiting or banning arbers, or just anyone who wins consistently. I think the same fate will happen to Value Bettors also.georgaras1995 wrote: Hello,

Even Pinnacle started to cancel bets. It's not good. Pinnacle is not old Pinnacle 5 years ago.

You can't arb if there is a frequent risk of your winning side being cancelled.
Re: Got Limited By Most Soft Bookies, What's Next?
Even if your Arb bet or Value bet wins, a Sportsbook can cancel it and say it was an "obvious error" or "palpable error" in their line and you took advantage of it. Sometimes they do this before the game starts so you can make adjustments if it is an Arb bet, but lately, more and more Sportsbooks are doing it after the game, probably because they know this will totally discourage Arbers - and it does. (Of course if your bet on the error line loses, they won't cancel it! And I bet they don't cancel it for those regular gamblers who had the other side of your winning Arb bet, so they really make out on this when they do it. Think about it. They could put out a bad line to attract Arbers and Value Bettors and then cancel the winning bets and let the losing bets stand. 100% profit.)pooler wrote:started to cancel bets ?? what do you mean ? please explainYngwie/Sawyer wrote: Even Pinnacle started to cancel bets.

I was arbing Shabab Al Ahli Dubai FC vs Al Ittihad (UAE) game. I placed a bet on away team first at softbookmaker then placed bets on Shabab Al Ahli Dubai FC at Pinnacle in order to hedge the arb. Shabab won 5-0 but Pinnacle voided the bet. (28.12.2019)pooler wrote:started to cancel bets ?? what do you mean ? please explainYngwie/Sawyer wrote: Even Pinnacle started to cancel bets.

Re: Got Limited By Most Soft Bookies, What's Next?
Hello, I have been educating myself on arbing and value betting. I am about to start amd had ideas to add my own twists to it but now i am wondering if it's worth it. Bases om this thread these companies are;
- cancelling bets before and sometimes after events die to palpable causes.
- there are not many companies that focus on valume anymore not even Pinnacle.
- if your a winner they tend to ban you.
With all that is said in this thread, i imagine that it's pointless to start because I'm more likely to loose money, right? Or maybe there is something I'm missing here?
Thanks

you can arb crypto.
--> Or the stock market.
The exchanges don't care since they may money from spread and commission.
I've been out since Pinnacle and other countries blocked Australia.
I tried valuebetting, I remember when I was arbing, that I was left with large amounts of money from soft sides.
That could work, but needs discipline.

Crypto-stock arbing will be one my next goals.A lot of people here say that it is almost impossible to arb in stocks-cryptos,due to fees,transfer delayes etc.I do not have an opinion to know if it works.
Also P2p lending will be one of my goals.Maybe some of these sites can work if you split your capital to a lot of people.Some of these sites seems to be trustable.
In general test every system and see which fits more one your skills.Every person has different skills.And for me the most important is to be passionate to whatever you do and enjoy time.
Re: Got Limited By Most Soft Bookies, What's Next?
