I very often notice these when comparing odds, bots are supposed to get them all quickly but i often see the same odds for a good fews hours upto a few days. Might be useful for some people. Heres one to get started.

barnevald 1/3 on william hill and his opponent 9/2 on ladbrokes. Could make a good bit of free money off that.

Edit: And just as i put it up it goes to 1/5 on william hill ) / Still 1/4 on paddypower and 9/2 ladbrokes though.

What you are referring to is known as an ''arb'' in betting terminology.

Arbing is a well-known and well documented form of "gambling" and I'm sure plenty of people on here have tried it. There are pro's to it but unfortunately quite a few con's also, and if bookmakers think you are an arber they will more than likely restrict or block you.

And before you ask, yes, it is quite easy for them to tell if you are an arber. To make proper money off it takes a lot of time, effort and resources, but I'm sure it can be done quite well if you have the time.

You'll eventually be banned from most sites, but thats due to constantly betting on odds which're higher than SP most of the time, so its quite easy to be caught out.

Yes, I backed Scotland under 1.5 just because you posted this. I thought it looked really big - especially when the others had it at 4/11!

You'll probably get banned if you do it online but it could take a while as these markets are usually considered "mug punter" bets. But still opportunities in the shops too.

Arbing can be a very dangerous game. i placed an arb last night using betfred and boylesports. It was 11/10 with boylesports when i placed it night but when i had a look today it was 4/6. I contacted them and they offered me my stake back. I took the bet on with another bookie but now ill be down 50 quid no matter what happens. So in short never use boyles and keep checking your account to see that they will honour your bet.

Every bookie will have it in their T&C's that they can correct a blatant pricing error, although this one wasn't overly blatant.

I) We will make every effort to ensure total accuracy in the issuing and publishing of our Prices & Information. However, we will not be held accountable or accept responsibility for any obvious errors or omissions in any of the markets offered and we reserve the right to correct these errors as follows:

Where a bet is accepted in error at an incorrect price, then bets will stand at the correct price; we will endeavour to contact the customer before the event commences to offer the choice of cancelling the bet by mutual consent, but should no contact be made then all bets will stand at the correct price

Where a bet is accepted in error containing the incorrect Handicap, Spread or Totals number then all bets will be void, regardless of the result”

Its called a palpable error. They're usually obvious.
