English Live surebets are sure bets that appear during a match or event. Their peculiarity compared with prematch surebets is the short "life" of surebets—from a few minutes to a few minutes. This is why their advantages and disadvantages arise in comparison with conventional surebets.
Therefore, the advantages of live sure bets include:
- Fast turnover of funds invested in bets. Surebets are relevant only during the match; the maximum duration of a football match with a half-time break and added time is approximately 2 hours. As a rule, real-time bets are settled quickly, so the money is released for further betting. "
- To work effectively with live surebets, the required bankroll may be smaller than for conventional surebets. This is due to the first point—the fast turnover.
- The risk of having an account blocked or falling under another type of sanction from a bookmaker is significantly lower than with prematch surebets. Bookmakers find it much more difficult to catch bettors placing bets during the match.
The disadvantages of live surebets include:
- Rapid changes in odds. You may not have time to place all the legs of the surebet.
How can you protect yourself when betting on live surebets?
- If you have little experience with live betting, we recommend starting with small amounts.
- Place two-way surebets. In a situation where everything changes in running, the probability of having time to place the bets and not make a mistake on two indices is higher than with the 3 source codes.
- For live betting, use sports where the score does not change quickly. For example, this could be football or hockey.
- If you bet on Totals, place Ts first, even though its odds increase over time. This will protect you from the team scoring a goal while Tb is being placed. It would be good to have a live broadcast in front of you—some bookmakers give their users this opportunity.
- Do not bet at the end of the match; at 5-7 minutes, you have to stop placing bets. Many bookmakers stop accepting bets at this point—you must be sure that you will be able to place all the legs of the chosen surebet.
