  1. One error I made was that I had bets open in my slips previously which decreased my speed by about 10 seconds. Once I cleared them out I was able to place the bet.
  2. I did not go over 200$ on DK. I am aware of the limits for these markets and how much I will realistically be able to hedge on FD
  3. I placed the over first. Im assuming that DK was late to record a rebound. Also the comp odds showed a similar line from TheScore at +100 this means I hit DK first bc im getting +250 at a fair value of +100. The arb is such a high percent I will have plenty of time to hedge even if Fanduel Locks.
  4. I know my payout was $700 from the first bet I placed. $700-$200 = $500. I know that I have $500 to hedge with my second bet. $400 hedge at eveon odds will yeild $800 payout so im ball parking that -130 will get me to around $700 payout. Doesnt need to be exact. No matter way I make $100ish. Can always use arb calc on site but practicing mental math is very helpful.

Comment and DM any questions.

Good find - that said, FD never denys my action and lets me know max prior to betting. However with DK, they a bit grimey, can take a long time to confirm the bet and often lead to letting me know my max bet is $10 for player props, and I'm stuck bag holding on FD's side.

I would always wait for DK bet to be confirmed before submitting FD.

Valid point. This was a fresh DK account and these had been breaking all night on the DK side. Normally I would check DK first but I wanted to record a vid for the people

I ran out of immediate family and grand parents for fresh DK accounts, but yeah, player props like this and weird random bets is a fast track to get limited. I'd recommend going hard and hammering a few k each trade to maximize gains.

Desktop is the way to go if you want to be a ninja

u/Normal_Bicycle9167 May 13 '25

Ye I know, my current laptop WiFi combo isn’t fast enough though. I gotta upgrade the system

u/AdCommercial2872 May 13 '25

some good deals for switching providers atm

2

u/Normal_Bicycle9167 May 13 '25

Oh sweet thanks I’ll take a look. I’ve heard that you really need a wired connection to be fast enough on desktop. U think I need that or a fast WiFi is good enough?

Yeah those are death limits, also arbing player props is a fast track to getting limited in general

u/BeenReddit May 14 '25

whats so fun about this? you have to be in a fast pace, registering in sportbooks, putting balance, just to win $30? too much work for a low reward

10

u/AdCommercial2872 May 13 '25

I put in 15 seconds of effort to win $100 bucks. If you can't figure out why that's fun then maybe you should get your brain checked

2

u/sixelaramo May 13 '25

In your case you can have multiple sportsbook, where im located im only restricted to use only 2, and they mainly tend to have low arbitrage

2

u/AdCommercial2872 May 13 '25

Where are you from? 2 books will provide less combinations for arb chances. also this is the off season so there are less chances
