Value bets: questions

What makes a bet a value bet?

Its price pays more than its real chance of winning. We take the chance from Pinnacle, the bookmaker that takes the largest bets from professional punters, after removing its margin. When a licensed South African bookmaker pays at least 3% more than that fair price on a firm market, we list it.

Do value bets always win?

No. A value bet at 2.20 still loses more often than it wins; the point is that, over many bets, prices above the fair price return more than they cost. We log every value bet before kick-off and grade it after, so the record is there to check.

Why do value bets disappear?

Bookmakers move their prices as money comes in, and the sharp market moves too. Most value lasts minutes to hours. Punts Pro shows each one within minutes of the engine finding it; the free one on this page is the smallest edge of the moment.

Will a bookmaker limit me for betting value?

It can. Licensed bookmakers may cap stakes on accounts that keep beating their prices. Bet sensibly, and only what you can afford to lose.
