Filter criteria odds does not match Betfair?
-
Hi all
I have made my first filter and I try to make a filter that shovs matches with odds on over 1,5 goal (1.30). I get a fine small list, but the odds in my criteria 1 does not match.The match between Barnsley v QPR says that odds right now is 2.5 (way to high - I think) - but on Betfair it is 1.37 (more correct)
Are the odds not live? Or have I done misunderstood something?

Just to confirm what you guys already figured out, yes the Odds section under "Historical Stats" is based on our stats from previous matches.
The Odds under "Live Betfair Prices" are the current Betfair prices (updated every 5 mins or so).
Another way of looking at it is that the historical odds are based on what actually happened in previous matches and the Betfair odds are the current market sentiment of what's going to happen. Definitely useful for spotting value, in combination with other factors from the historical stats

@martin-futter said in Filter criteria odds does not match Betfair?:
@karsten-nygaard so when you create an odds filter don't use overall, use Betfair as your starting point. Click Betfair then Over 1.5 odds, should work then!
Thanks Martin, that works for me too.
If Overall/odds is selected, then in took "statistical odds".
Selecting Betfair/odds, take "real Betfair" odds; and thats what Karsten needs.
Note: Maybe if somebody only want "value", then could use both filters; OverallOddsOv1.5 Less 1.30 and BetfairOddsOv1.5 greater 1.31. So the difference represent "value". Not considering "fundamentals" that could make BetfairOdds be greater. But thats an statistical aproach.
