I never gave my name for a referal, nor do I care to. It just seems that people enjoy live trading, and I think tradesports is the biggest site for that.

But since you asked so nicely, I'll give a background review.

It's essentially trading stocks, except it's for sports games. each "share" is worth a total of $10. If a game is even money, you buy/sell at 50. There is no juice, you get transaction fees of .04 per share, unless you set the market price.

For big events there is plenty of action. However, if you trade unknown baseball games, you may find it hard to get the action you want.

I made a good amount in the nba playoffs, cause teams would jump out to huge leads. Like in the Dallas game 6, where they were 3:1 favs, and got out to the first quarter lead, they were trading at close to 90 per share. I shorted dallas (meaning heat to win), and when they made their run, I sold out at 50. Ditto for the Spurs game 7, along with lots of other games.
