Hello!
I'm a professional arber and I made a bet on 5dimes and an opposite one in last night's match between Olympiakos and Man Utd.
The line was Man Utd +2.5 at 1.063 in 5dimes and Panathinaikos -2 (three-way handicap) at 26.27 odds.
This would give me a 1.76% arbitrage.
After the game, I went to 5dimes to see the bet I took there was cancelled. I spoke to them in chat and on the phone and they said the line was not along with the market. I said I could prove them wrong and sent them the print of my betfair's bet.
Their answer was comic and showing lack of experience on betting which makes me think how can people like this be in front of such a big book. Their answer:
"Your bet is not in the same event or outcome of the one you placed in 5dimes."
I answer them back saying simple math can prove the opposite line at betfair was at 1.04, so 5dimes was along the market, "obvious line error" could not be an argument.
They ask me to present this to FBI as a joke.
How can this be?
