Didn't you see the film The Sting?

Many times.

Great feelgood Hollywood mainstream entertainment with star actors at the peak of their game, strong supporting cast, taut direction, memorable musical soundtrack

Usually put this one around Xmas and drift in and out of sleep, as the plot has long since been unravelled and then wake up for 'the con'.

In play odds are constantly fluctuating. If the bookies do not have direct information from the ground they are dependent on media reporting. As such there will be a delay in the market odds changing on an event. Red card for example.

Internet exchanges let you both back and lay. If you are at the game monitoring the markets, an opportunity may arise to profit.

Just remembered, I think it was a thread on here about a bet on the number of yellow cards. The poster was present when the "winning" yellow card was shown. The bookies not only received delayed information but incorrect, and called the bet lost. Long story short, the poster got his winnings eventually.

Surely you are doing nothing wrong though , fair play to anybody who can make money out of it because the bookies
will screw you at any opportunity as you mention in the your last paragraph. I remember the guy had to take it to
arbitration or whatever just so the bookies would pay out what was owed to him.

The bookies want, as they call them, recreational gamblers. Consistent winners are stake restricted, if your betting history mainly revolves around offers, bet x get x as free bet, these offers are removed from your account. Matched betting will see your account closed, if caught.

Courtsiding is another wheeze to keep one up on the bookie. Good luck to them. As for nothing wrong, not to us, but Ms Coates has her £200 million pay cheque to protect.
