Just curious, why, besides Pinnacle, what led to the decision to use the other books you included in the live~lines section, and, do you plan on adding to that list?

Good question. There are several factors that went into consideration ...

The books shown are all advertisers (i believe) that have the ability to give us the necessary data for the feed. Some books had similiar feeds ready, available IT resources, etc ...
Some books simply didn't have the ability to produce the feed and others are working on it as we speak and some others have it slated in over the next few weeks.

These books have been nothing short of AMAZING in terms of their cooperations in making this a reality.

We are currently talking with several books, a few that you will see very soon are Grande, BCBets & Royal ... but trust me - others that haven't been mentioned will be along soon too.

It's great that we have this for MLB, but our real test/goal is to have this baby as BUG-free as possible come football season ...

.. we expect a full slate of books, more features, etc ...

Hache,
Any comments, suggestions and/or spotted bugs/defects are GREATLY appreciated by you & everyone else.

General they do not take big action though, lets keep books on screen that take big numbers.

G2G, there is a lag time ...

We <only> "pull" the feeds from the books every 30 seconds ... we regenerate our HTML lines page every 10 seconds and we automattically refresh the HTML page every 45 seconds ...

.. these timings are ALL configurable, we'll adjust as we see fit (with experience/feedback)

the answer to your question is the delay varies .. sometimes you'll have a delay anywhere between 1-84 seconds depending on the last feed/refresh .. etc ...

Although, it doesn't meet the top levels of DB (we're not trying to) we do feel that it's a great product for the average user while NOT a complete bandwidth hog.

No problem JJ. That is true and admitted by Sportbet, but for the recreational player, which is majority, Sportbet is solid.

Take care

Excellent start!! You're already ahead of two of the three DB products as far as timeleness of line movements. You'll not catch them in software unless you outspend them. Not necessary however. I'll prove that, but that's for later. Right now DB has better books but you have one of the 'big 5' already. I have a hunch a couple more could be had. Think it through. Good luck and I'll help you behind the scenes if you need it....ScottyS

Scott,
Although we consider that the ultimate compliment we are absolutely NOT competing with Don Best ...

.. they have live injury updates, weather, etc ..

you name it - they have it

Like I told Joey. DB is the Mercedes of the Line Services ... we're the Geo - cheap, efficient but nothing close to a luxury car.

I was looking at the lines and I just want to recommend the following:

SportsBettingTrivia.com offers a 20-cent line online and a 10-cent line over the phone.

If you are going to bet the favorites, you will receive basically the same line everywhere, but nobody else is offering the option to move the line 5 cents in your favor.

If you are betting the underdog you just call and get the 10 cents line.

Why not try?

Go to

http://www.sportsbettingtrivia.com/demo.html and watch how it works

Please let us know what you think
