How To Find Arbitrage Betting

How To Find Arbs

One of the biggest challenges you will face when using an arbitrage betting strategy is actually finding the right opportunities. Although they do occur reasonably frequently, they don’t usually last very long. There are lots of bettors looking for them so they generally get spotted very quickly. As soon as a few bets have been placed to take advantage of an arb, the chances are that the odds will have changed enough for the opportunity to no longer exist.

You have three primary options when it comes to finding arbs.

Websites & Forums

There are several websites that advertise arbitrage opportunities as and when they appear, and some forums where users can post them up when they identify them. Using such websites and forums can be a relatively easy way to find arbs, but there are some downsides. Firstly, you won’t generally find the most lucrative arbs this way. People tend to keep those to themselves. You also have to be quick to take advantage of the ones that you do find. If there are lots of other people using the same sites and forums, and there usually are, then the opportunities are likely to disappear quite quickly.

Software & Alert Services

There is tracking software you can purchase that will find arbs for you, and alert services you can subscribe to that will automatically notify you of them. These are relatively easy options, and very simple to use. You don’t have to do much work yourself other than place the actual bets. They will cost you money though, and you may suffer from the same problem of the opportunities not lasting long.

Your Own Research

You’re more likely to win on a slot machine by pulling the lever instead of pressing the spin button.

Also inaccurate. Most slots no longer have a lever on the side. Those that do, however, offer no advantage to the player who chooses it over the spin button. All the winning combinations are being generated internally by the RNG, so it doesn’t matter which method you decide to use.
