How live betting works
The sportsbook posts continuously updated odds as the game unfolds. You can bet new moneylines, spreads, totals, props, and exotic in-play markets.
Why live betting is exploitable
Lines must respond fast to events on the field. There's lag between event and re-price — sharp bettors with fast hands and good reading skills can capitalize.
