Court siding / Live at the races / Live at the pitch side

Having been trading quite a bit recently on tennis it has become more and more apparant to me that the inbuilt delays of the feed to your TV / Betfair TV / any other so called live feeds are giving those of us who sit at home a real disadvantage when compared to those punters who are sitting at the courtside.

As I watch a match on TV I can tell who has won the point by the odds movement on either Betfair or Smarkets ahead of the feed which i am watching. I have read for instance that there are/were firms/syndicates who employed people to travel to tennis tournaments and feed back the points as they were being played to someone outside the grounds giving them time to place bets ahead of the crowd. This appears to be more difficult now for these organisations to do this since the tennis authorities have banned court siding. (quite how they can tell you are doing this is a mystery to me especially these days when everyone seems to be glued to their mobiles 24/7)

I have also noticed this with football matches when again the odds have moved a few seconds before I see the notification of a goal on screen.

I wondered if anyone has tried the equivalent of this at say football matches with their mobile phone and if so has this given you an edge on the rest of us?

Hey marktuck199! I’ve tried some courtside betting / trading on football, cricket, tennis and greyhounds but found it very limiting because of in-play delay. If you’re still up for some chat I’d love to pick your brain a bit 🙂 Sadly there’s no PM feature here afaik, we could calk on whatsup, messenger or twitter maybe, whatever you prefer.
Thanks

In play delays and poor liquidity on certain matches. Makes this virtually impossible.

Did anyone watch ‘Can you beat the bookies’ on BBC1 last night? Court siding featured – quite an interesting insight.

Hi Greg (I assume)

Would you be willing to discuss this strategy further with me?

I have been looking to get involved for a while and would really appreciate some advice regarding syndicates etc from someone like yourself who has already begun their journey.

Look forward to your response.

Thanks

Dan

Hi Mark

Interested in your post.

You mention bookmakers but could you not do this on an exchange eg BFEX or Smarkets?
