How to make arbitrage betting more safe?

The answer to this question should be divided into two parts: how to protect yourself from your own mistakes and how to protect yourself from the interference of the bookmakers.

To minimize your own mistakes, you must:

  1. Keep accounts only with well-established bookmakers.
  2. Before starting to bet with any bookmaker, carefully read the terms for approval, calculation and repayment of bets. Particular attention should be given to the part of the rules that is about stoppage time. Bet on surebets with bookmakers who offer identical conditions.
  3. Start working with surebets with small amounts to get more experience.
  4. Do not hurry and check bets and odds on bookmaker websites before betting on surebets (if you use a surebet scanner).
  5. Do not make bets during the last minutes of the game. At this time, many bookmakers stop accepting bets and you may be too late to bet on all arms of the surebet.

To avoid the risk of ending up in a "surebet players blacklist" made by bookmakers, we recommend the following:

  1. Do not make unrounded bets.  $30 would be a good bet, while $32.42 is bad.
  2. Avoid repeated bets on the same event. Even if you really want it, and the odds are very attractive.
  3. Do not put all of your bank on a single bet. Common players wouldn’t do it.
  4. Do not bet on surebets with more than 10% yield. There will most likely be a mistake (random or intentional) to catch surebet players in the line. In this case the bet is canceled and recalculated with a rate of 1.00.
