Local fish market – love it or hate it.
Sportmarket? There is only one option – love it.
I have some updates regarding Sportmarket and want to share them with you. As you know it is my favorite bet broker with 11 TOP accounts in one wallet. Can’t find the reason why serious punter shouldn’t use them. Read More
Using TradeMate tool I noticed descriptions like Sharp and Soft bookmakers, which I was familiar with but actually never used on a daily basis. I would like to explain a bit in more details who are them. Also, will add two new categories from myself: “Mickey Mouse” and local bookmakers. Read More
Let me introduce you another betting exchange – Matchbook.
It is not as popular as Betfair but has its own advantages and worth checking.
I tried to use it 3-4 years ago and wasn’t impressed. The biggest problem was to trade out your bets because of lack of liquidity. Liquidity means – that someone needs to match your bets. For example, if you are asking for 1.9 on game X, but there are no takers of your bets, it is just waste of time. Betting exchange in order to operate smoothly needs customers who are active.
But let’s speak about today. If you are betting on Top leagues you can give a try for sure. At the moment there is more liquidity to place bets at high prices or trade before or during the game. Read More
First of all, you need to know that Sportmarket is not a usual bookmaker. It is a broker service. The company is owned by Per Hildebrand who is well known in betting and poker circles. He founded his first company “24h poker” in 2000 and started to build his own poker software. Sportmarket was established in 2004 and in the beginning, was dealing only with big bettors (from 10 000 euros turnover per month). Now it is affordable for most punters staking from 25 euros per bet. Read More
Pinnacle was founded in 1998 and it is one of the biggest online bookmakers. They are based in Curacao. While most of the information about company’s turnover is kept secret, I am pretty sure we are speaking about billions of euros/dollars.
When Pinnacle started trading they chose a different strategy than most bookmakers – instead of offering bonuses to new customers, Pinnacle chose reduced margin (high prices) strategy attracting new customers which worked very well. Read More
Betfair was founded in 2000 by Andrew Black and Edward Wray and it was a genius idea. Betfair is the world’s largest betting exchange.
In 2016 Betfair merged with Paddy Power and formed Betfair Paddy Power. Betfair also has Sportsbook which is usual bookmaker with a big margin. You can compare prices yourself, which one is for you – Exchange or Sportsbook. I have no doubts in most cases Exchanges will kick average Sportsbook’s ass. Read More
