Sports Arbitrage Questions

k3v1n · 09-19-2008, 12:50 PM

I have been reading quite about this in the past few weeks.I know some forum members e.g paper chaser are arbers.Could you guys please post your thoughts about this.Do u use the ISP email addresses to receive sure bets or can a regular hotmail address work because from what i hear,it might take a while sometimes to receive mail using free addresses like hotmail.
There's also the issue of bookmakers frowning upon the practice of arbitrage.How can you keep a low profile and not look suspicious to them?
I also want to know if a broadband connection is a must.
I need to know how much I can pay in subscription fees to arbitrage sites,the average profit realized from this kind of betting and also the general risks involved.

"Do u use the ISP email addresses to receive sure bets or can a regular hotmail address work because from what i hear,it might take a while sometimes to receive mail using free addresses like hotmail." -> There are loads of free e-mail address providers like boardermail.com - mail which they won't recognize as a free address. Or you could get a .TK e-mail address that will be forwarded to your existing address. Or if you're really desperate, you could ask me for my ISP address.

The problem with free addresses is that when there's a lot of traffic,you might not receive your mail that instant.It's not really a big problem in theory,but i can't take chances.Those addresses also have annoying filters that might block the sure bet mail.
Thanks for your offer,tripleeagle but it's ok.I don't have broadband so it won't help me much but maybe later this year when i move to England......and also if i have time for arbing.
