by Rajeev Shah is hot off the press (2011) and already almost completely useless. Or to be more specific it's almost completely useless if you have already read anything about betting sports arbitrage. Instead of buying this I recommend you the read wikipedias article on the same topic http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arbitrage_betting its a page long and more comprehensive, you'll save yourself 113 pages and $30. Shah does give some useful sites you can use to try and get some arb oportunities. The only problem is if you actually want to use any of them you'll find without an arbitrage software package that you are too slow and the arbs have already closed. Sports Betting Arbitrage can be highly profitable and is essentially riskless and if you are a complete newbie it maybe worth ppurchasing this book to guide you through.For my money though I'd save the $30, look thorugh the wikipedia article, check out a couple of forums (and to be honest the basics mechanics of sports betting arbitrage are pretty simple) and instead invest the money in one of the betting arbitrage software packages such as 100 PER CENT WINNERS Their servers sends out "spiders" to collect data from the various bookes, the informaton is sent back to the servers to calculate arb opportunities and then the data sent out to you. It makes the process a lot faster and easier than trying to do manual calculations, and these days arb opportunities close so fast it's almost impossible to do the old fashioned way anymore. They offer a free download so you can try out the software first and theres a bunch of testimonials on the site, which gives you a feel for what you can achieve. With the correct sofware you don't actually even need to know exactly why you are making specific bets but I would still recommend getting a basic grounding in the subject matter, however this is included with the software package.
