****Live betting issues****

Yup same stuff as I mention score is all wrong

I was not watching live games just followed bovada scores and placed bets and o ended up losing all :frowning:

Please do not rely on the live scoreboard when making your betting decisions.

Thank you very much for the feedback and the screenshots, these were added to the ticket.

They are all wrong in display

Could you please specify what was wrong exactly?

I understand that the recommendation is to verify ā€œofficialā€ sources prior to placing a wager, but that’s a lazy excuse to continue unethical practices. No other book, offshore or legal, has these constant issues. The fact that the live wagering lines are accurate and are accepting bets means that you have the correct game data and are simply not displaying that information to your players. It’s comical that you’re even having ā€œproblemsā€ with the MLB live scores as baseball is one of the slowest moving major sports.

We understand your point @hcohen1414 but as advised on our Live Betting Rules found here:

  1. The Live Scoreboard should NOT be relied upon when making wagering decisions. We strive to ensure our Scoreboard is reflective of live game action; however, on occasion, discrepancies can occur between scoreboard details and the lines offered. As such, lines will be settled according to what occurs in the game, using the data contained in the official play by play for the given sport.

Jacob, I’m not arguing that the book is doing anything against the TOS or betting rules. I’m simply communicating to you and other players (who may not be aware) how poorly your services are operating. I know it’s unlikely, but the goal is to help your team understand how terrible your live wagering product is and maybe that will spark some real change on Bovada’s end.

I know that you’ll deny this, but your live wagering flaws are clearly being used to gain an even greater advantage against your customers. If players should not be using the information provided by you, why even offer that information at all? You could simply offer the lines without any live scores. You don’t do that because you know that the discrepancies help the sportsbook and not the players.

Totally agree with you why post something that is not right ? Just don’t post the game at all if the scores are all wrong

What a joke man — live betting scores wrong again (ATL V OAK)

Been wrong for several innings now

Also to add why is the baseball all the way down of the live betting? Shouldn’t it be on top?

That’s how it’s currently displayed, I’m not sure it makes a significant difference whether it’s at the top or the bottom. :pray:

It’s easier for us user to live bet fyi … anyway to get it up there in the future?

To be fair, I’m not entirely sure. It may just be how it’s currently set up, other games are listed first, and baseball happens to appear further down.
