Live In Game Betting Explained For years, bettors have been able to go online and wager on sports but live in-game betting has not been explained to the majority of the country. By using local sportsbooks.

Live betting offers players the ultimate experience in entertainment,
betting flexibility, and money making opportunities. Available mainly online due
to its highly technical nature, live betting allows players to become light
years more immersed in the action with thousands of new betting options. If
you’ve never heard of the concept before or are looking to learn more, sit back
and buckle up because we are going to walk you through every aspect of live
betting. By the end of this article, you will be an equipped expert ready to get
in on the action and hopefully prove your knowledge and make some money.

What Is Live Betting?

Historically, the only time that you were able to make bets on a game were
before the game started. Once the action was underway, you were locked into the
bets you’ve made, and that was the end of your betting until the next game.
Sportsbooks realized though that they could make a much better experience for
bettors if they developed a system to allow players to make additional wagers
during the game based on how things were going. Welcome to live betting!

Live betting, sometimes called in-game betting or betting in running, is the
ability for bettors to make additional wagers AFTER the game has already
started.

Sometimes these wagers are offered between quarters or periods, and in
some cases, they are offered after every single play or drive. Basically, you
are able to bet on a multitude of different things at any point during the game.
The number of different betting types and the frequency at which they change is
all dependent on the technological capabilities of where you are betting.

Live sportsbooks and casinos will have the fewest and sometimes no options
for live betting as it is more difficult for them technologically speaking to
keep up with the action. Online sportsbooks and casinos will have the most
options and the most variety of betting options as they have the technological
resources to keep up with the games and handle all the changing action. The joy
of this technology is that it makes everything easier on you the bettor. You
also don’t ever run the risk of your bet changing before you are able to get it
in because you never have to wait. We will discuss the differences between the
betting options later and discuss the pros and cons of each.

Types of Live Bets

The types of live bets offered are going to vary greatly depending on the
sport and depending on where you are betting. As we discussed earlier, it takes
a great deal of manpower and technology for a sportsbook to run live betting
operations. They have to set new lines in real time and don’t have days or weeks
to get prepared like they do for normal bets. For all of these reasons, the
types of bets offered are going to vary. Let’s take a look at some of the more
common types.

Traditional Bets

The same bets that were available before the start of the competition are
also going to be available after the event starts, except the odds are going to
change in real-time to depict what has happened in the game. For example, let’s
say you are live betting on a football game. At the beginning of the game, the
Dallas Cowboys are favored to win at -200. When the game starts, let’s say their
quarterback breaks his leg on the first play and the other team immediately
scores a touchdown. Obviously, the Cowboys are not as big of a favorite anymore
and are actually probably underdogs. They are already down a score, and their
star quarterback is out of the game.

With live odds, this will be
reflected, and you can then make a more reasonable wager if you think the
Cowboys are still going to win. The odds might change to +150 or something like
that giving you a much better price to bet the Cowboys. If you had bet $100
before the game, you would get $50 for a Cowboys win. If you took the in-game
bet and the Cowboys win with their backup, you would get $150. You would get
three times as much as the sportsbook now thinks the Cowboys are going to lose
based on what is happening in the game.

You’ll have your standard “who will win bets,” and you’ll also have your
other bets like your over/under (totals) and such.

Prop Bets

All of your prop bets will also be available for in-game wagering if the
sportsbook or casino has the technology to keep them up to speed. These include
your for fun prop bets as well as your skill based prop bets like how many
touchdowns or goals a player will have or how many field goals a kicker will
make. You can typically find a lot of good value with these bets if you think a
player is a slow starter or is not getting the ball for a reason that is about
to change.

For example, let’s say you take the prop bet that Rob Gronkowski is going to
score over 1.5 touchdowns in a game. Let’s say Gronk is kept to zero catches and
zero touchdowns through the first half. It now looks a lot less likely that he
is going to make it to over 1.5 touchdowns, so the odds of that happening are
going to go through the roof. This means that if you take this bet at halftime
and win, you are going to get an extremely high payout. Remember that the higher
payouts almost always mean a bet that is less likely to occur. You’ll see later
that at times this is less true with in-game wagering than it is with
traditional wagers that are placed before the game.

Parlays

In-game wagering sometimes gives you the option of turning your single bets
into parlays if you want to. Let’s say you bet on a trend that you think is
going to happen and you think it’s going to continue to happen. You could add an
additional bet onto your original after the game has started to try and
capitalize on your correct prediction. Many sportsbooks will also let you create
brand new parlays with in-game wagering which is the ultimate rush.

Benefits of Live Betting

The reason we’re so excited about live sports betting is that there are so
many great benefits and reasons to play that didn’t exist before. A lot of the
benefits are similar to those you get from traditional wagers but are amplified
with this new style. Let’s take a look at some of the most popular reasons that
so many people are getting involved and loving live sports betting.

The Odds

Technically, the odds on all bets are supposed to always be correct, or
accurate to what you are betting on. The sportsbooks spend lots of time and
money hiring professionals or setting up computer systems to help them set the
perfect odds on a game. If they happen to set a line incorrectly, they stand to
lose a lot of money if bettors can jump on it before they catch it. This becomes
fairly easy and straightforward for the sportsbook when they have weeks and days
to prepare and research their lines ahead of time.

This luxury goes out the window when it comes to live sports betting. The
sportsbook is required to change odds and make predictions in real-time, and
they don’t have time to second guess themselves because they have to stay up to
pace with the game.

There are two ways that a
sportsbook might set in-game odds. The first is through a team of “brains,” or
smart bettors that have the task of setting lines. These guys and gals are the
best in the business and rarely mess up. The second way they do this is through
complex computer systems that take all the available data into account and spit
out new lines and odds in real time.

The problem for the sportsbook is that both of these systems are not perfect,
especially in a time crunch. Human error is inevitable which could result in
odds that are too far skewed one way. Computers are only really able to analyze
quantitative data and are not able to analyze qualitative data. If those are new
terms to you, quantitative data is data that has a numerical value with it,
something that can be counted. This would be like how many points the team
scored, how much time is left, how many fouls players have etc. The other is
qualitative data. This would be things that can’t be measured like team morale,
signs of injury, etc. Computers are really not capable of catching these types
of qualitative things.

The human errors and technological implications mean that it is much more
likely that you are going to find an incorrect line put out that you can jump
on.

It is not a guaranteed win or anything like that,
but it is a payout that does not match up with the likelihood of that event
happening. For example, here’s an insanely exaggerated example. Let’s say Mike
Tyson is fighting a baby penguin. The oddsmakers put out a line of Mike Tyson +
200 to win. If we saw this line, we would put every penny we had in the world on
this bet. Clearly, the sportsbook made a mistake thinking that Mike Tyson would
be an underdog against a cuddly penguin in a boxing match. Yes, this is an
exaggerated example, but milder versions of this do occur, and they occur more
often in live game betting.

Let’s look at a more realistic example here. Let’s say there is a prop bet
that Julian Edelman will catch over 5.5 passes and you’ll get paid -110 if that
happens. Let’s say Edelman comes out and catches two passes in the first drive.
The odds are going to shift to something like this for in-game betting.

Odds at start of game

Edelman to catch over 5.5 passes -110

Edelman to catch under 5.5 passes -110

After his killer first drive, the odds might shift to this.

Edelman to catch over 5.5 passes -310

Edelman to catch under 5.5 passes +290

Obviously, the sports book thinks it is way more likely that Edelman is going
to get the over on the passes here and is now going to pay way less if he does
it but way more if somehow he does not do it. Technically, these odds are going
to be close to correct based on a lot of data and computer calculations.

But we’re going to add something new to the mix. At the end of the last play,
Edelman bashed his knee and hobbled to the sidelines off camera. The computer
and the brains did not pick up on this, but you did. Clearly, there is a chance
that he is hurt and will never get his over 5.5 passes as he is favored to do
now. In the old days before in-game betting, this would have meant nothing to
you. In the new days, though, you would slam a bet down as fast as you could on
Edelman to catch under 5.5 passes. If you bet $100 on this, you would stand to
possibly win $290 in profit just for being more observant than a computer.

Does this mean that you are guaranteed to win your bet? Of course, it
doesn’t. There’s still the chance he’s just a little banged up and comes right
back in and gets 10 catches. But, you are getting the opportunity to win more
than you really should be offered if the computer had seen his potential injury.
If the sportsbook catches wind of his potential injury, they might immediately
move the odds back to -110 on the under 5.5, but your bet is already locked in.
Realistically, you should be getting the -110 price and only get a profit of
$90.90, but because of your quick action, you now stand to win an additional
$200 on the same bet.

If you wanted to be fancy, you could even then bet $100 on the under (against
yourself) after the bets are adjusted to reflect the potential injury which
would pay $90.91. You’re now GUARANTEED to almost break even with a freeroll to
make some money.

If Edelman gets over 5.5 catches, you win $290.00 in profit from your bet
after the two catches but before they noticed the injury that you noticed.
Subtract the $100 you bet against yourself after they discovered the injury and
you get a total profit of $190.00.

If Edelman gets under 5.5 catches, you win $90.91 on the bet you put after
they discovered the injury. Subtract the $100 you bet after the two catches but
before they noticed the injury that you noticed, and you get a total loss of
$9.09.

Basically, the worst you can do is lose $9, but you have a free shot to win
$190! That to me sounds like a winning situation all thanks to live betting!

People Are Easily Influenced

This one goes hand in hand with the odds and trying to get lines that are
incorrect. Most of the time the sportsbook will put out a line that is correct.
However, you have to remember that lines are capable of moving based on how the
public is betting. We said that the brains and computers putting out the lines
were smart, but we did not say that most of the betting public is smart. The
betting public has a tendency to bet way too much with their hearts and not
enough with their head. If enough of the betting public bets incorrectly one
way, the line will move and the odds will get much better on the other side of
the bet. Let’s take a look at an example that will make this clearer.

Let’s say you are watching a football game between Team A and Team B. Here
are the moneyline odds at the beginning of the game.

• Team A -110
• Team B +105

Basically, the sportsbook thinks these two teams are pretty neck and neck,
and it’s a bit of a toss-up. The first half goes on, and Team A is driving the
ball expertly and look on fire, but every time they get down into the red zone,
there are some fluky penalties or uncharacteristic fumbles that get returned for
touchdowns. The half ends with this score and these odds:

• Team A 3
• Team B 14
• Team A +125
• Team B -110

Now, the betting public might incorrectly look at this and assume that Team B
is crushing Team A. Unfortunately, they are only basing that on the score and
haven’t been watching the game that closely. Team B is also the fan favorite, so
many of the fans want them to win which also influences betting.

In reality, Team A played much better the first half and should be able to
get through the flukes and come out with a strong second half. The betting
public doesn’t see this though and they slam their money down on Team B. Before
the halftime break is over, the line moves to this.

• Team A +200
• Team B -190

This is an amazing time for you to put a bet on Team A. The betting public
bet with their hearts and tunnel vision and moved the line significantly giving
much higher payouts on Team A. Remember that the sportsbook wants the same
amount of bets on each side of a game, so they will make the odds more enticing
on one side if there are too many bets coming in on the other side.

Again, this does not mean that you are guaranteed to win this bet. Team A’s
awful luck can easily continue, and all the silly bettors can win their bet.
But, what you have done here is gotten better odds and a higher potential payout
than you should on something happening. Being able to do that over and over is
the key to being a long-term successful winning sports bettor.

Entertainment

If you love high-paced action and love constantly looking for edges during a
game, live betting was made for you. For those that haven’t had the privilege of
experiencing it yet, it truly is one of the most fun times you can have sports
betting. Sure, there is plenty of action on traditional sports bets, and
for some people, they would prefer to get the bets out of the way and then kick
back and enjoy the game. For the rest of us that love the fast pace, it doesn’t
get any better than in-game betting. We could tell you over and over again how
much fun it is, but your best course of action is just to give it a shot
yourself and see what you think.

Benefits Wrap-Up

As you can hopefully see now, this new trend in sports betting is an
incredible step forward for the industry. Not only are you able to exploit
sportsbook mistakes and exploit bettors who aren’t as sharp as you, but you’re
able to do it all while having an absolute blast.

Live Betting Strategy

Since most everyone reading this is probably fairly new to in-game betting,
we don’t want to send you out into the wilderness without some strategy tips and
advice to get you pointed in the right direction. Ultimately, with the vastly
different types of bets and changing odds, you will be making a lot of split
second decisions and will have to develop your own winning strategy. These tips
and tricks will help you in the right direction and help you to avoid some
common pitfalls and not be labeled a sucker.

Start With a Pre-Game Bet

Most experienced in-game bettors like to start off with a pre-game bet as a
starting point. This allows you to make sure that you have done your pre-game
homework and are in a good state of mind to get in on the action of this game.
This is of course never required, but it does give you a lot more options going
into the game. In-game betting is great for salvaging bets that are going the
wrong way or pressing on bets that are going the right way. This sort of
flexibility becomes a lot easier when you have a pre-game bet to start from.
Again, this is not necessary but a good starting point.

Know Your Limits

The fast-pace of in-game betting can make it pretty easy to get carried away
if you are not on top of things. When you are making multiple bets in real time,
you need to make sure that you keep track of just how much action you have on
the line. The best way to do this for most people is just keeping a little tally
of how much you have bet in the game, and you should be just fine. If you are a
more experienced bettor who has a lot of bets going at once, you might want to
look into setting up an Excel spreadsheet on your computer to keep track of
anything.

Thankfully, the online sportsbooks will handle everything for you, and a lot
of them have great interfaces to keep track of all of your bets at once. If you
are someone who is going to be placing a lot of in-game wagers, we definitely
recommend picking a site that has a great user interface set up. This is true of
most of the sites that offer in-game betting, but just check and make sure
before you get started.

Make Sure You Are Watching the Entire Game

Surprisingly, this is one that action junkies and new bettors don’t always
follow. If you are going to be live betting on a game, make sure that you are
watching the entire game. You never know when you might catch something small
that will give you an edge over the competition. Remember our Julian Edelman
example from earlier? If you have the game off or are watching 10 games at once,
you will never catch things like that and will miss out on some potentially easy
money.

If you are going to bet in-game strictly on the
numbers, you will never be able to get an edge over the computer or identify bad
lines that move based on heart betting from the public. You’ll be basically
going about it the same way they are setting the lines, and they will always be
better at it than you.

Most people fall into the trap of not watching the complete game because they
have too much action or bets going elsewhere. If you plan to bet on a lot of
games, we recommend placing your bets on those games and then choosing one or
two at most games to live bet on. Put that game on your TV to focus on and then
just follow the scores on the bottom of your screen for your other bets if you
want to.

The idea of live betting is figuring out ways and angles to get an edge. This
is near impossible if you aren’t totally immersed in the game and actually
paying attention. Don’t worry, we aren’t saying not to have a ton of fun and
enjoy the games. We’re just saying that in-game betting does require some
attention and TLC (tender loving care) if you plan on being profitable long-term
at it.

Use Live Betting for Close Pre-Game Bets

A lot of times we will find ourselves trying to decide if we want to make a
bet before the game or not. The line is usually just about where we want it to
be, but maybe not quite there. In-game betting can help you to get the line that
you want if there happens to be a quick swing early in the game. For example,
let’s say that you want to bet on the Dallas Cowboys to win, but the pre-game
odds are only -200, and that is just not a good enough price for you.

What you can do is wait for the game to start and see if you can snag a
better price early. If the other team gets the ball and scores quickly, that
-200 could quickly change to a number much more in your favor. There is the
possibility that things start out fast for the Cowboys, and you are never able
to get a better line, but you aren’t losing any money in this scenario because
you haven’t placed any bets yet. There is also the possibility that the opening
drive looks so dominant that you no longer want to place a bet on the Cowboys.
The point here is that the in-game betting gives you some flexibility and a
second chance to make a bet at a potentially more favorable line or save
yourself from making a poor bet.

Remember that the odds are going to move to what the brains think is going to
happen. The reason we are restating this is we want to make sure you realize
that by waiting, the sportsbook is not just magically giving you a better price
because they’re nice like that. They are doing it because it has become less
likely that the Cowboys will win the game. Something will have to occur for them
to move that line in that direction. If you think the first drive or whatever
causes the line move is negligent, then take your better price and be a happy
camper 🙂

Capitalize on Bad Lines

In Game Betting Companies

We discussed this extensively in the odds section above. If you happened to
skip through it, we highly recommend going back and reading it as it actually
gets fairly heavy into strategy. In recap, we were drawing attention to the fact
that with pre-game, traditional bets, the sportsbook has an infinite amount of
time to set their lines and research to make sure they are perfect. They lose
this luxury with in-game betting and are much more likely to make a mistake or
set a line that does not take everything happening into account. There is just
too much going on and too many intangibles for them or a computer to keep up.
This will result in lines that you can jump on to make some easy money.

We also talked about the fact that the betting public is typically not that
smart and likes to bet more with their hearts than their heads. When they do
this with in-game betting, the lines can move quickly and can create some
favorable situations for you to pounce on. Watch for situations where you think
the lines and the bets are too dependent on minor or emotional factors. If you
can uncover these situations, you can put yourself in some great spots to make a
lot of money.

It’s important to reiterate that just because you find a bad line, it does
not mean that you are guaranteed to win that bet. It just means that you have
put yourself in a favorable situation where you have the chance to win a higher
payout than you should for whatever the bet is. For example, you could find a
bet that should be +200 for a team to win, but it is actually listed at +600.
This means that if you bet $100, you stand to make $400 MORE than you really
should. That being said, you are still an underdog and still supposed to lose
mathematically. Putting yourself in enough of these situations is the key to
being a long-term successful bettor.

Know the Interface

This should have been number one on our list, but let’s say we just saved the
best for last. Live betting interfaces can sometimes look a little different
than your traditional odds charts you are used to. They are constantly updating,
and the ever changing numbers can seem a little daunting at first. The best
advice we have is to take some time to learn the interface and see where
everything and all the options are BEFORE you start betting.

Don’t wait until right before the game to start learning how to make in-game
bets and what all the different options are. You are bound to make a mistake or
not be able to find something you need to take advantage of a hunch before it’s
too late. The numbers and betting lines change rapidly with in-game betting, so
you have to be on the ball to be able to get the bets in that you want.

Don’t Start Here

If you are absolutely brand new to sports betting, live betting is probably
not the place you want to start. We recommend starting with some basic
traditional bets and learning the ins and outs of those first. Don’t worry, live
betting will not be going anywhere anytime soon, so you have nothing to worry
about. It will be here for you when you are ready to give it a whirl. Trying to
push into this too early before you understand the basic types of bets and how
they work and payout will just cause headaches and mistakes that will make you
have a bad experience. It’s not that it is that complex, but crawl before you
walk my friend.

The Wrap-Up

As you can see, live betting is an incredibly fun style of betting that is
only possible thanks to several incredible technological advancements. If you’re
a sharp better who knows how to analyze games and feel the momentum, you have
the potential to be very successful at live betting. Make sure you’ve fully read
through this guide and fully understand all the different aspects of live
betting and how to do it. Also, make sure you read through the strategy section
so that you can attack this as an intelligent bettor poised to make some serious
cash. The sportsbooks should fear you now.

For years, bettors have been able to go online and wager on sports but live in-game betting has not been explained to the majority of the country. By using local sportsbooks as well as offshore betting sites, live betting allows for bettors to access odds and lines at all points of the game. Live betting is some of the most popular wager styles in other parts of the country but in the US, it is still coming into popularity. Bettors are put right in the middle of the action as things are going on, updating in real-time to formulate new and unique betting lines that have never before been seen on the matchup.

Live betting can be done on many sports these days and the list continues to grow each year. Sportsbooks are always looking to improve upon what they can allow their account holders to take advantage of. As we often do on our website, ExplainBettingOdds.com will break down how live betting works for specific sports and then recommend the best sites for betting on sports which also have live wagering in their repertoire.

What Is Live In-Game Betting

Betting live in a game at a sportsbook will take you to a separate section entirely. Here, you will be given the option to wager on games that are currently taking place, as well as check out the upcoming games on the schedule to wager.

Among the wagers that can be placed covers a number of aspects. You can expect to find odds on the spread that will vary according to how the game is going. The same can be said for the moneyline and over/under point total. But outside of that there are some great props relating to games as well. These prop odds will be unique to the particular sport or game going on, because as you know sports are all very different.

How To Bet On Live Sports

The actual process of betting on live sports is not that different from making any other type of bet at a sportsbook. The only difference is that your time to bet a particular line might be limited to minutes or seconds, depending on which type of line you are wagering on. But just as normal, a bet slip is filled out and the wager is processed. The result will be known depending on the type of wager. It could be almost instant for a prop, or it could have to wait until the end of the game should you bet an alternative spread or moneyline.

In-play betting is another term to be familiar with that you will hear tossed around on this page. This type of betting is similar to live betting in that it starts up after the game gets going. But in-play betting is usually limited to outcomes like differing spreads and bets made for the second half. In general, most sports gambling sites will distinguish between the in-play odds and live betting section on site.

Live In Game NFL Betting Explained

In Game Betting Lines

Betting live on the NFL is one of the most popular sports to do so on. And each season more odds are being formed. Not every NFL game is available to place live wagers, but there are many that are. You can bank on Monday Night Football, Thursday Night Football, and Sunday Night Football not to mention the Super Bowl being on there. These are the nationally televised games, but others can be seen as well. As far as the live bets that can be made, it will depend on the course of the game. Props and alternative game lines are popular. In-play game odds are formed as well, which differ slightly from live betting. In-play lines can include new second half odds and total over/under wagers.

Live NBA Betting

The NBA is one of the most fast-paced sports to bet live. It's similar in hockey in which there is plenty of non-stop action until a timeout or a commercial break. We can see a great number of live betting lines in the NBA, which can be anything as specific as game props like the next team to score, or a change in the course of the point spread. The NBA has plenty of statistics that are kept track, and player stats are a big part of the game as well. A bet on a player scoring the next basket or getting a rebound can be seen. Really there are so many options that anything seems possible, in the words of Kevin Garnett.

Live MLB Betting Explained

MLB betting might be the best sport to wager on live arguably. It's because there are a lot of thing happening, but at a nice pace. This is where things can be wagered on such as the next pitch being a ball or a strike. Or another example might be the next hitter up getting a hit or an out, or even something as specific as how that batter will get out. But then other live bets in general can be adjusted moneylines. This is also seen with in-play MLB betting odds, where wagers from different innings reflect different moneylines. In-play bets can be made in between the innings.

How Live Betting Works In College Football

College football live betting runs hand in hand with the NFL. But with college football, there are more games scattered over different regions, with few nationally televised games. Still, live betting sections like to formulate wagers for college football both in-play and live. In terms of in-play odds, there are adjusted game lines for the second half, as well as point spreads for quarters following the completion of the first quarter. In terms of what live betting odds are available, this is dictated by the flow of the game.

College Basketball Live Betting Explained

Whether you are betting in the regular season or during March Madness, college basketball betting covers plenty of live betting and in-play betting. With more than 300 Division I teams, there are plenty of basketball games on the schedule. You won't have the option to be live on every one of them, but in-play odds are seen far more often. Either option puts you in the action, with live bets last only a couple of minutes generally. You can take advantage of some of the half odds at the break during a game, when oddsmakers readjust the spread depending on how the first hall went.

NHL Live Betting Explained

The NHL is the most fast-paced sport to bet live, because the action rarely stops throughout the course of the three periods.

Strategies For Live Betting

Some bettors enjoy live betting because of the different nuances and fast-paced action. Because the betting lines and odds are always changing, finding amazing value is much more likely. For example, if you believe a team in the NFL will beat their 3.5-point spread, but they let up an opening drive touchdown to start the game, you can find a new spread better than the original wager. As the team is currently failing to cover the bet, the spread will be much better than what they were before the game started.

Another reason for live betting is to middle your bets. Say you bet on two NBA teams to hit the over on a line of 210 points. If at halftime, both teams already scored 130 points, the over is likely to hit. As the oddsmakers are always offering lines, they will now present bettors the opportunity to take an over/under set at a higher line such as 225 points. Now, you can take the under while live betting, leaving you a nice 15-point cushion in a possibility to win both wagers.

The moneyline is the most important wager type to pay attention to during live betting. These odds signify the payout associated with making a wager but are not representative of the probability of a team winning a game. In some instances, oddsmakers overreact or have to adjust their books on the fly because of large wagers, causing fantastic opportunities. If the media has hyped a team, expect their odds to always be slightly favorable. This can allow for picking upsets to be even greater (or paying less on the favorite).
