    Due to recent "payout" issues, arent Betting Exchanges safer?
    Since Betting Exchanges do not actually lose money when the bettor wins a bet, it would be logical to assume that there should be no pay-out problems, right?

    Not only that, there are no actual "limits" in place. The only "limit" is on the amount/value posted on the exchange. The more volume (and bettors) the higher the limit.

    This is why I am currently focused on Matchbook, Mansion and Betdaq.

    In a betting exchange, if the player/bettor wins, the betting exchange will not feel bad.

    In a sportsbook, if the player/bettor wins, the sportsbook feels bad (which is logical)...especially if they win all the time.

    Is this all logical?

    Most offers on Mansion are made by Mansion.

      But in terms of financials, Mansion is still 100x safer than Matchbook and Betdaq.

        I totally agree regarding Mansion. And their pay-outs are within a few hours only.

        With regards to your other post, I think Mansion's "seeding" the initial figures on the exchange are to the benefit of its customers since it readily creates the volume. Besides, if you don't like the odds, you can always make your own odds.

        Mansion's commission rates are the lowest too.

        I like the "lively" atmosphere of Matchbook since you see the figures move all the time.

          If Mansion didn't seed, they would be a ghost town for US sports. 1 hour ago, they only had one NBA offer on the exchange that wasn't seeded.
