Sports arbitrage betting is called sure betting for a reason. Compared to regular gambling, it is certainly a safe way to bet. But it’s only risk free when it’s done properly. In this article we will explain the most common risks in sports arbitrage, and how to avoid them or mitigate the pitfalls.

Moving odds

Some bookmakers are faster than others at changing odds and you may end up getting caught in an ‘odds trap’ where you have placed the bet on bookmaker 1 but the odds have changed at bookmaker 2 leaving you in an unwanted situation with an uncovered bet. How to avoid or mitigate this risk and the other risks listed below, is covered in the Ultimate guide to sure betting

Different bookmaker rules

Bookmakers sometime have different rules for how to handle the outcome in scenarios such as an incomplete game in tennis, over time in ice hockey, etc. This is why it’s important to double-check that the rules are the same on all bookmakers to avoid risks in sure betting. RebelBetting only shows arbs between bookmakers that have the same rules, but since bookmakers change rules from time to time it’s important that you still double check that the rules are the same before you bet.

Bet cancellation

A bookmaker can cancel a bet claiming it was a palpable error. This can occur when the bookmaker have made an obvious mistake, for instance reversing the odds. The bookmaker has the right to cancel your bet at any time, before, during or after completion of the match, however, bet cancellation is not very common.

“It’s one of the easiest ways to make money”

The only thing you really need is a computer and some patience. My starting capital was €2500, and so far I’ve earned +€11000, which is a lot considering it’s tax-free. Use one or two hours per day on betting, and you can really make some big profits.

“I am always open to new ways of making a profit with as little risk possible”

It’s taken me less than two months of value betting to make as much as I made from matched betting in a year. View the process as more of an investment than betting, think long-term. Trust the system and keep placing bets.

Individual mistakes

To avoid risks in sure betting, we should minimize individual mistakes. An individual mistake is, for instance, betting one side on half time and the other side on full time, betting on the wrong team, not having enough funds on one bookmaker to complete the bet, placing your bet at wrong odds etcetera.

Dawdling

If you have placed your first bet and then take too long to place the second bet, you may be too late to get the correct odds. However, the risk of dawdling is low when using RebelBetting. When you bet on an arbitrage, RebelBetting automatically logs you into your bookmaker accounts, and many times finds the correct match and highlights the odds. All you have to do is verify the information and place the wager.

Bet limitations

Some bookmakers will limit you sooner or later if you use your betting account solely for arbitrage or value betting. There is no general rule here; people get limited differently quickly by the same bookmakers. Usually, the limitation will occur as a restriction of how much you can bet, but some bookmakers also restrict you by lowering your odds.

Luckily, there are plenty of techniques and strategies that can help you avoid limitations for as long as possible.

Errors

Errors can occur in every software. We strive very hard to present accurate information in RebelBetting, but sometimes different matches show up in the same arb, for instance, the reserve team and the A-team. This happens because of the bookmakers inconsistent naming of teams and events. To avoid betting on wrong arbs double check that the teams are playing in the same tournament. It only takes a couple of extra seconds and it’s time well spent.

How to overcome these challenges

You can overcome all these challenges if you are committed and willing to invest time in learning the basics. We see it as our mission to help you succeed with both value betting and sure betting.
