BET ONLINE USING IN-PLAY ODDS
In-play betting, also known as live betting, is a type of sports bet placed on an event while it’s happening.
Similar to pre-match betting, live betting invites players to make predictions on their favourite sports – only these predictions are more specific to the minute-by-minute action taking place over the course of an event.
Some in-play bet examples:
- Next Goal Scorer
- Total Points Over/Under
- Set Winner
- Next Over Boundaries
BENEFITS FOR BETTING IN-PLAY USING LIVE ODDS
