SureBetBookies Updates

Posted by Aegist on October 3rd, 2007

SureBetBookies has recently had all of its alert services updated in accordance with all of the changes that have come about recently. GotoBets, ArbWinner and NickelVacuum have all been removed from the search options and the alert services display page, while Gamblers Paradise, BetLines, ArbSpy, OddsExplorer, Free Sports Arbitrage and Surebet Zone have all been added.

BetDirect and BetSafe bookmakers have also just been added to the database, and more bookmakers will be regularly added over the next month, as will many other additions. For example I am working to make the whole system easier to use for first time visitors. I’m not sure everyone really understands the value of SureBetBookies, and so I have to do more to make you all realise it! Particularly the power of the comments section where instead of trawling through pages and pages of random forum posts in our own forum, SBR, ArbForum, or any other bookmaker rating service/forum, you can just look in one place for comments on that bookmaker. Of course, in order for this to work, people need to actually participate and leave comments. So, after a few more upgrades and improvements, I will be announcing a cash prize competition for whoever leaves the most (useful) comments for bookmakers in SureBetBookies.

Also, I have decided to return SureBetBookies to an openly sure bets based bookmaker database. There will be no attempt to disguise the sure bets association with the use of SureBetBookies. However, to offset this association I am also working on another website which will use the same database that drives SureBetBookies, but make it completely recreation/professional gambler dedicated. The website is already under construction at Sportsbook-Listing.com and while it will use the same database as SureBetBookies, none of the alert services information will be used or displayed, no reference to arbitrage or sure bets will be made anywhere on the website, I will be posting articles about gambling and sports, and I will advertise the website on gambling websites. This is a further step to protect users of SureBetBookies from being associated with arbitrage trading.

AusSoft/Reevera vs ArbForum? and Updated Alert Services List

Posted by Aegist on August 22nd, 2007

In an incredible twist to the AusSoft/Reevera saga, AusSoft have threatened legal action against ArbForum for the discussion on their boards about AusSoft’s Arb-A-Trader. AusSoft’s lawyers claim that the discussion is defamatory of AusSoft and has caused them a large loss in income. They imply that there are sinister motives behind the discussion. It seems that they think the community of members at ArbForum are somehow trying to destroy AusSoft for the benefit of AusSoft’s competitors. Quite possibly one of the most outrageous claims I have heard. A community of autonomous individuals all under the control of some vague ‘competitor’ entity which fears only one arbitrage alert company….right….

Gamblers Paradise and Free Sports Arbitrage

As well as AusSoft, Gamblers Paradise (GP) and Free Sports Arbitrage (FSA) have been added to the Sports Arbitrage Alert Service listing. Both GP and FSA call themselves ‘Free Services’, but they both have restricted access pending a paid upgrade or in the case of FSA, a requirement to use their affiliate links to register with bookmakers.

FSA is targetting beginners, hoping that people who are only just getting started will be interested in having a lifelong ‘free’ service for the one time requirement of registering with bookmakers from their links. A sensible enough approach, this does however restrict old hands from joining as most seasoned arbers have registered at every bookmaker in existence several times over already. The owner of FSA does say that other arrangements can be made if this is your situation and you would still like to register. If you aren’t interested in the permanent membership, then don’t miss the 10 day free trial anyway. Another free trial can’t hurt to improve your arb turnover for a week.

GP offers a unique scenario where they are offering much more than just alerts. They seem to be trying to socialise arbitrage so that you can message other members, buy and sell things within the community, and write articles for the other members. This is all available in the free membership, however the free membership only provides tennis arbs, screening out all other types found by the GP software. Upgraded membership has several levels, each one improving the access.
