FAQ

No, that is not the case. In the classical sense, it is not one. Since arbitrage betting is a situation where the bettor is 100% sure of recovering the minimum arbitrage stake without a loss, while in most cases making money.

Polish middles can lead to an outcome, albeit an unlikely one, that can reduce the bettor's bankroll. The details on this subject are described in the article dedicated to Polish middles.

Why do we discuss them on our website? Quite simply because Polish middles use the same principles as ordinary middles, when several different events intersect, giving the bettor 5 to 10 times more (on average) chances of winning than losing.

Although the method is not absolute in terms of reliability, it remains potentially very lucrative. And if you know how to look for Polish middles (and we do), you can easily make money.

Profits on Polish middles, as well as on ordinary middles, occur as a result of successful bets on the event outcome in two (sometimes even more) different outcomes.

An example with a simple middle: there are two bets: Total sup. 0,5, odds 2,05 and Total inf. 1,5, odds 2,50.

In the event that one and only one goal is scored in the indicated match, this outcome will be winning in both cases, so the player who placed them will receive their winnings twice. This is called hitting the middle.

In the case of Polish middles, the calculation scheme is somewhat more complicated (you can view it in detail on the page describing Polish middles).

The answer to this question should be divided into 2 parts: how to protect yourself from your own mistakes and how to protect yourself from bookmaker sanctions.

To minimize your mistakes, you should:

1. Open accounts only with verified bookmakers.
2. Before working with a bookmaker, carefully read the terms for accepting, settling and refunding bets. Particular attention should be paid to the sections of the rules that concern extra time. You should use the surebet between bookmakers with identical conditions.
3. Start by working with small amounts to gain experience.
4. Do not rush, and before placing a bet on the surebet, make sure that the rates and odds on the bookmaker’s websites are up to date (in case you are working with one of the surebet scanners).
5. Do not place bets at the last minute of the match. At that moment, many bookmakers stop accepting bets, and you may not have time to place all the legs of the surebet.

In order not to end up on the “blacklists of surebet players” compiled by bookmakers, we recommend:

1. Place only rounded amounts. It is better to bet 30$ than 32,42$.
2. Do not repeat bets on the same event. Even if you really want to and the returns are very attractive.
3. Do not bet everything on a single bet. Ordinary bettors do not do this.
4. Do not bet on a surebet with a return above 10%. It is very likely that this is an error (accidental or intentional, with the aim of catching surebet players) in the line. In this case, the bet will be canceled and settled at odds of 1,00.

Most bookmakers are deliberately against surebets and bettors who practice them. At the slightest suspicion, they may restrict a professional player—for example, set a maximum bet of 1 $ or block their account completely.

How do bookmakers understand that they are dealing with a surebet player and not an ordinary player? Fractional bet amounts, for example 20,58$, regular withdrawals of money from the bookmaker's account, bets on minor divisions and junior tournaments. In addition, bookmakers themselves sometimes organize «traps»: they offer deliberately high odds for an event, and everyone who bets on it is placed on the «black» list.

In our opinion, the amount you should have must be at least 500 euros. Around 50-70 euros will be used to pay for the monthly subscription to the surebet scanner; the rest of the bankroll must be deposited into the accounts of the bookmakers with whom you plan to place bets, that is, deposit the shoulders of the surebets. The larger your bankroll, the higher the stakes you can place and, consequently, the more profit you can obtain.

 If you plan to work with prematch, you do not need much time. You can start the surebet scanner in the background and do what you have to do. When you see a surebet that matches the filters you specify, you can set up a sound notification (an option is provided, for example, by AllBestBets and Surebet). On the other hand, for Libe Surebet, you need at least 2-3 hours a day.

It was the PositiveBet scanner that was the first to issue live surebets. This was a major breakthrough, and for a long time bookmakers had no way to identify players who were placing surebet bets during the match. Today, it is much more difficult to do compared with prematch surebets.

At present, it is no longer the only service providing information about live surebets; AllBestBets also exists, and periodically other scanners try to enter the market with their offers. But according to the existing pricing policy, PositiveBet's tariff offer is the most attractive: a 1-day subscription will cost 7,9 $, without restrictions on markets and bookmakers. A one-month subscription costs 79 $, making it 2 times more profitable than the offer of its competitors.

There are many scanners; some are developing, while others are closing. New functions and opportunities are appearing, the lists of scanned bookmakers are growing longer, the number of sports available for surebet is increasing, as is the variability in market selection.

That is why the answer to this question must be given with the present day in mind. Thus, the answer to the question concerning the three leading scanners is relevant only at the time the article was written.

These three scanners are: AllBestBets, Positive and 3Bet. Of these, 3Bet is the newest, and it is less good than its competitors in a few significant parameters. Nevertheless, all these scanners perform well, work with Live Surebet, have a reasonable pricing policy and good support services.

In addition to these three leaders, there are still other solid heavyweights, all described in detail in our ranking.

Based on a comparison of more than 10 factors on our site, an evaluation of surebet scanners was conducted. Since our site is multilingual, the ranking differs depending on users' geolocation. This is primarily explained by the fact that most Russian services, if they are translated, are translated only into English. For Hispanic users, for example, this option is not as convenient compared with Spanish-language sites.

Therefore, by selecting your language, you can familiarize yourself with the ranking and consult the most up-to-date information possible, in order to know who is n°1 among surebet scanners. At present, in the Russian segment, the best surebet scanner is AllBestBets.

To understand what type of scanner is right for you, you can purchase a one-day subscription. Indeed, only practice will show what type of tool will help you make money.

Based on factors such as the scanner's history, its general development, the number of bookmakers scanned, scanning speed, the absence of bugs, the range of additional options for the user, the most reliable scanner currently is the AllBestBets service. It deserves to be ranked first in the Surebet Scanner Rating.

The PositiveBet and OddStorm scanners are very reliable. They have most of the qualities listed, and OddStorm also scans Polish Middles, among other things.
