"T20 is crack cocaine of cricket .. its ok, but, in my old age, prefer more sedately moving specimens .. like test ckt." :)

Good point. I initially picked the wrong move in the current NZ v SA test but was able to turn red into green in the subsequent days. Less chance of that happening in T20.

Edit: Maybe true in some one sided games but I'd imagine the markets flip many times in close T20 games.

Thanks for your replies, megarain!

I've already thought of a few strategies but data to confirm their longevity would be very helpful. I was looking at downloading a screen recorder for a spare laptop i have, running bet angel and live text commentary to see the effect of certain events then letting her run, playing it back and manually collecting the data. (this way i can skip to the good bits and not sit indoors looking a screen all day)

Where do you courtside, UK or abroad?

Having read your previous posts it appears you're using the VPS, does this consume a lot of mobile data or do you use Wifi etc?


Thanks.

years ago I sat at Headingley with laptop gambling away......times have now changed and u will even be thrown out for relaying back information via mobile
You can go back, a laptop user is allowed at Headingley . unless its a ICC regulated event.

I trade in 3 countries (mainly), where its hot. I dont like the cold.

4g/5g makes data transmission less of an issue. But, its taken a long time, to get my set-up right. Go to a game, and see how fast the mkt reacts to events .. sniping is largely a thing of the past // so, u find other ways.

All I know is I sent a mate to Essex to relay information back via mobile....... He was pouncened upon by guys in suits.......I told him to ask them is it illegel?? they said no but it is frowned upon on.....too check terms and conditions and escorted him out the ground.

Would have thought its the same for every county ground.

It was the mobile that did u in. (Plus, maybe u didnt look .. how shall we say, English ?? not that this should matter)

If u had sat in the stands, with a laptop, u would have had a chat with someone, and been left alone. (If u look Engllish or Not)

Mega as regards tv/cable do you know or use any service that has loads more of the games live?
As we know there are loads of games taking place that aren't on Sky in this country or say Fox in Australia. For instance Afghanistan v Ireland has just finished and there was bundles bet. I know a lot of the cricket is shown on Ten Sports but as it is in the southern hemisphere getting a dish to pick these pics up is almost impossible, so im told.
It seems that the route is via IPTV.

Any light you could throw on the subject would be most helpful!

Its not an area I specialise in .. I tend to bet live, or token/nothing.

Youtube carries some feeds, I saw a bit of one of the Afghan games on it.

I sorta feel, at some point, the ICC may carry obscure games, on their own app/website.

Obviously, high profile ones, they just want to charge the major networks for.

There is clearly a gap in the market, which is why new feed apps, are being developed. I havent tested, the ground feed from twitter, as I havent got a spare stand alone laptop. I wouldnt want it on anything, thats connected to my accounts etc, for fear of spyware.

After the NZ series, once I finally land somewhere, I will have a look at it. The games they have carried, (a friend), told me they were well ahead of Sky, and u could cancel bets, before the market was swiped.

Yeah, finding a decent entry in cricket, is more than half the battle.

I left some bets up, with auto-trades.

Hard not to win.

Mega I tried looking for that App with live feeds and struggled to find anything on twitter or google either. Did you have the exact number of a link please?
