hey guys, i'm a complete n00b, i understand the theory of abitrage
but i am completely lost why are some of these arbitrages? for example: " LAD +112 WSEX NYM -111 Pinny" is it because it's +EV if you bet both sides? |

[/ QUOTE ] It is +EV to bet both sides, and even more +EV to bet one side. Why are you surprised that your example is an arbitrage? What do you think arbitrage is, anyway? |

[/ QUOTE ] arbitrage is like money in the streets, just basic market or in this case sports book inefficiencies that people can take advantage of.... if i had sat down and worked out the math, i wouldn't have posted, i'm sorry guys, i will only read and post arbitrage on this thread from now on, basically i did the math wrong and didn't think it was an arbitrage opportunity, next time i'll do it 2x carry on, sorry for the interruption |

[/ QUOTE ] Check the FAQ for more on Arbitrage. If you have questions after reading the arbitrage-related questions/answers/threads linked from the FAQ, then post another thread asking questions. This thread is for posting arbitrages only, not for questions. In the example above: Risk $500 to win $560 on LAD on WSEX Risk $557.63 to win $502.37 on NYM on Pinnacle guaranteed profit regardless of outcome (thus the arbitrage): $2.37 |
