I have seen this type of comment a few times here. Why does it matter to a bettor if the stream is delayed by 1-5 mins? How would they even know?



I remember a few years ago reading about a scam at the Australian Open Tennis where there were people inside the stadium who were betting on individual points as they happened.

I guess they could bet before the betting streams caught up.

It seems ridiculous to me that you can bet on individual points, but here we are.
