Cappers, touts, twitter loudmouths — it doesn’t matter. Everyone’s locking up something, but not everyone guarantees a win. At OddsShopper, it’s important for us to present ways to profit like our free arbitrage tool, available to guarantee profit. Yes, that’s right — when using an arbitrage (or arb) system, a bettor is able to secure guaranteed profit no matter the outcome. It’s simple: Bet both sides at two different books with enough on each to ensure profit. The best part about arbitrage is it doesn’t matter which side of the bet hits; it’s going to lock in bankroll profit.
Finding these opportunities isn’t easy. That’s why OddsShopper uses its branded algorithm to properly identify winning bets. Here are the best arb bets for Friday, Nov. 17!
Arbitrage Betting: Guaranteed Betting Wins Today | Nov. 17
D’Angelo Russell’s made 3-point prop sits at 2.5 on the night. The Lakers are taking on the Trail Blazers, and Russell is healthy. Those are the only important pieces of information needed before using the free arbitrage tool. A bettor can easily head over to Unibet and place a $385.42 wager on the over to pay out $1,013.66 if it hits. The same bettor will take $614.58 and bet under 2.5 made 3’s at FanDuel for a winning wager of $1,013.66.
The tool does the work and math already, establishing the bankroll for both bets at a combined $1,000. That leaves $13.66 guaranteed profit no matter which side hits. It’s a long play, but constantly checking the site for updates will help maximize returns.
LeBron James is currently questionable for this Lakers-Trail Blazers game but has some good arb possibilities. A bettor can take advantage of the same process as above but with more books to choose from. Starting at BetMGM, a bettor can go over 39.5 points for James, wagering $526.17 to win $1,004.51. That same bet but just under can be found at DraftKings. A $473.83 bet will return $1,004.51 if James finishes under his point total. The result is a $1,000 combined wager for a guaranteed profit of $4.51. It may seem small, but there are larger chances throughout the day, so make sure to check periodically on OddsShopper.
