Betfair have finally upgraded their live betting interface with a new section on the web site called “in-Play”. It gets it’s own dedicated tab.
The live betting pages offer a simpler interface with integrated video and live scores. Markets are grouped (which we like) and generally it’s far less cluttered than the full exchange view. It’s especially good for football live betting.

There’s been a lot going on with new live betting and in-play websites from Victor Chandler, Totesport, Coral and more. I’ll keep adding what I can over the next few weeks.
Totesport
There’s been a lot of change at Totesport and as part of a full website redesign they have enhanced the bet in play features with live scores, commentary, stats and more. Take a look for yourself or there is a video on Youtube:

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:

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.

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…

Apple seem to be only allowing the app to be used in UK and Ireland where they see betting as fully regulated. Tabcorp in Australia also have permission. I think South Africa have regulated online betting so it’s up to Betfair to push it. Why not ask Betfair and let me know the reply. I’ll ask a few people I know at Betfair…
