Understanding Your Telegram Betting Alert

We'll walk you through how to read and make the most of our Telegram betting alerts. Here is an example of a typical alert, which we'll break down section by section. This alert contains all the key information you need to identify value bets.
๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡ธ LaLiga: the alert starts by identifying the competition. In this case, it's LaLiga

๐Ÿ—“๏ธ 26/09 18:00: Data and hour of kick-off

โšฝ๏ธ Las Palmas - Real Betis Sport (displayed by the emoji) and event.

Bet: Las Palmas ๐ŸŽฏ: the selection to pick.

Market: 1X2: market where the value is detected. Here, it's a 1X2 market, which means you are betting on the outcome of the match (1 for home win, X for draw, 2 for away win).

Soft bookmaker where to take the value and the odd offered (here Betano 3.55, Skybet 3.25, WilliamHill, 3.25).
Betfair EV%, Pinnacle EV%: expected value (EV) of the bet compared to the reference bookmakers (also called sharp bookmakers). More on how we calculate EV% here.

Betfair Exchange Odds: current odds on Betfair Exchange (back and lay odds). More info on how Betting Exchanges work here.

Total Matched Matched Liquidity on Betfair Exchange

Pinnacle Fair Odds: fair odds (or no-vig odds) from Pinnacle. More on how we calculate the fair odd here.

Pinnacle Odds: actual odds offered by Pinnacle.

Pinnacle Margin: margin (or vig) applied on the market by Pinnacle. More on how to calculate the margin applied here.

Pinnacle Limit: maximum amount you can bet on this market with Pinnacle.

Alert number: unique identifier for the alert.
The alert number allows you to easily track and revisit your previous value bets. When you click on "I've taken it" (see below), this unique alert number is registered and helps you identify the specific bet you placed in the past. This feature is particularly useful for keeping a record of your betting history and not place a bet twice in case of doubt.

Below is an explanation of each option available when you've clicked on Options:


I've taken it ๐Ÿ’ต: it marks the alert as a bet youโ€™ve placed. This action is recorded in your history, making it easy to track which value bets youโ€™ve taken. The alert number associated with the bet allows you to look up this specific bet later for review or analysis. This will add automatically the closing alert (closing alert explained below).

Mute ๐Ÿ”‡: mute notifications for this specific outcome. For example, if you mute a draw, you'll continue receiving notifications for home and away selections.

Add Closing Alert: set up a notification to receive the odds 5min before the event starts. This ensures you can have the Closing Line Value. and decide if you want to keep the bet or cash out if it is no longer value.

Already bet?: if youโ€™ve already placed a bet based on this alert and clicked on "I've taken it ๐Ÿ’ธ", you can click this button to receive the alert number that youโ€™ve taken action, preventing duplicate bets for the same alert.

Close Options: close the options menu.
