What is the best sportsbook for live betting?
about 1 month ago - No comments
At the end of May 2009 I created a survey that you can see on the right-hand column of this page. It was a simple question – which online sportsbook offers the best live betting website. After months of voting by people like you – punters and sports fans – the results are clear. One site stands out from the rest but will they hold that lead through 2010? We’ll see. Read on for more details and cast your own vote in the live poll on the right of the page.
It’s a simple question – which online sportsbook offers the best live betting website. After 8 months the results are plainly obvious and the winner is Bet365 by a long shot. Taking 30% of the vote in a crowded and competitive market is no mean feat.
So what is it about Bet365 that allow them this lead? Why do you like them so much? From chatting to punters, reading comments and from working in the industry and speaking to companies who work with them, the answer as far as I can see is three-fold:
Skybet to launch new sportsbook in beta
about 1 month ago - No comments
I had a sneak peak at Skybet’s new sportsbook this week and it is going into beta preview next week (Feb 1st, 2010). It’s looks great and is fast! The navigation is nice and they have broken away from one of the longest running conventions in sportsbook design – the right hand side betslip.
It’s going to be a good year for Sportsbetting. Hopefully we’ll see even more great product launches but keep an eye on skybet.com for the beta preview link.
Update: Skybet have launched a new site as a beta. It’s available from a link on the top right of the home page.
The best live betting sites

You stumbled on this website because you have an interest in live betting. Before you go on your way take a look at the poll on the right. Who has the best live betting experience? I figured Betfair would win just for the breadth of coverage but the user experience is continuously improving. Bet365 have to be a strong contender as well. What’s your opinion? Is live video streaming important or do you just want best price?
I’d really appreciate your vote and you can leave a comment at the end of this post if you like on why you made your choice. Many thanks…
Britains Got Talent Live Betting
about 9 months ago - No comments
Is it just me or is it more enjoyable betting in running on TV talent shows than some football games? As well as performance you have to weigh up sentiment, contestant background, the make-up of the voting audience and other factors (including sex, race and religion if we were all being honest) that the UK TV audience uses to make their voting decisions.
Based on reading the above factors, I took a 100/1 punt on Stavros Flatley getting through their semi-final. They came top of the public vote I laid if off to lock in a £400 profit (I won’t mention the loss on DJ Talent but I did get 2000/1 – he nearly made it!).
Stavros is now 10/1 to win outright on Paddy Power. If he does I’ll be kicking myself for laying off so much but as with all talents shows, the public likes to have at least one joke act in the final but things tend to get more serious on the night.
Paddy Power tend to lead the way on novelty bets. Check out the novelty bets section in the left hand navigation on their… Read the rest
