Play-by Play (PXP) Wagering
- Thread starter yak merchant
- Start date
if its similar to the wsex markets I can tell you all you want to know
if it's something else, no clue what cybersportsbook even is

No it's different than the markets. It's a java app that cybersportsbook developed, where you can bet on the outcome of everyplay. Kind of like QB1 or something I guess. Apparently, you bet on whether it'll be a run, a complete pass or incomplete pass on every play.
Cybersportsbook is part of the betwwts family and currently underway putting all offices together since the buyout.
yak, have not had time to check that market......will try in the future.
add..edit....
wondering if liquidty (sp) to close in terms of dollar amounts will be worth it.?
hence i bet your reason for asking...

ummm...IE, could you put that in english for us clueless folks (ie.....ME) that don't have a clue as to what you mean there??
Not a Player versus Player, so there is no liquidity concerns. They are booking it from what I understand. From what I read last year it was max $20 dollars per play, this year it's $100. I just want to know what the overround is, I have a feeling the vig will be outlandish. Good to know they are part of betwwts I guess.
will make a deposit and check it out for you tuesday or wednesday of this week.
get back to you after what i observe.....

took a look for you yak
very similar to the wsex "what will the player do next" for baseball. IMO
It's not a market just a straight bet with odds on whether the player strikes out, lines out, singles, etc.
I'm sure they're just gonna give you odds similar to that and base those on their live oddsmakers for each event before each play.
Not sure why the limits are so low, WSEX you can bet a lot and its the same principal. It must have made them a fortune last year if they are bumping the limits 5x what they were last year.
I'd imagine it'd be difficult and not all plays will be offered, and can probably be a real bitch to run.
I mean 4th and 30 with 1 second on the clock down by 5, I mean how can you not bet pass for the max. I mean, it'll be more interesting to me to see how it is set up. Definitely interesting at least, but not my cup of tea.
Maybe if I misread it or grossly misunderstand it, I apologize. Hope you do well if you try it.

Well looks interesting, but I'll have to do some more research. Looks like the bookmakers are watching the espn feed, as if they cut to the booth, no lines are posted. I have a feeling they'll cut off anybody that makes money at it. Inside info actually applies here for the "run" prop. And I'm sure at some point the TV delay will come into play. The overround looks to be the following: 7% on Kickoffs/Punts. 9% on First Down or No first down. And the play by play (run/Complete pass/Inc pass/Turnover) overound has consistently gotten worse. First series of the game the overound was 15%. Now it's consistently 30% and at times up to retard levels such as 41%. At 15% you might be able to beat it , but at 41% you'd have a better chance getting drunk, and throwing darts at a racing form. Will keep looking into it, but right now I'm thinking I will not be investing the time as the vig is too high, and they've built their Java App so that it's almost impossible to screen scrape so that pretty much takes automation out of the equation.
