FAQs

What is ShootingBets?

ShootingBets monitors Pinnacle odds and sends alerts via Telegram when it detects a significant drop in odds, indicating opportunities to bet on traditional bookmakers, who are usually slower to react, before they adjust their odds.

How do I register with ShootingBets?

You can register through this link: https://t.me/ShootingBetsBot. It is necessary to have a Telegram account and previously be registered at Betaminic.com.

Is it free to register with ShootingBets?

Registration is free, but you will receive a limited number of alerts. With a paid Premium account, you will receive all alerts without limitation.

What do I need to use ShootingBets?

You need to be registered with Betaminic.com and have a Telegram account, which is free and easy to create at https://telegram.org/. In addition, it is advisable to have as many accounts as possible with traditional bookmakers to take advantage of the alerts.

How does ShootingBets work?

When Pinnacle drops its odds, ShootingBets sends an alert with the recommended minimum odds. The aim is to try to bet at traditional bookmakers at odds above this minimum odds before they adjust their odds.

What kind of alerts does ShootingBets send?

Alerts include recommended minimum odds for specific events and, in some cases, alternative minimum odds for related handicap markets.

Do you recommend betting below the recommended minimum odds sent in the alerts?

We do not recommend betting below the recommended minimum odds, as good results cannot be guaranteed.

What are the alternative markets shown in the alerts?

Alternative markets and alternative odds are offered in some alerts to help when your bookmaker does not have the same handicap selection available, providing additional options to bet on.

Do I have to bet on every alert I receive?

It is not necessary to bet on all alerts. You can select the ones that best suit your availability and betting strategy.

How long is the value odds available at the traditional bookie before they dropping their odds?

The time available varies from bookmaker to bookmaker, some adjust their odds more quickly than others, but you need to act quickly to place your bet before your bookie reacts and adjusts the odds.

How do I find my bet quickly at my bookmaker?

It is recommended that you use your bookmaker’s search bar to quickly find your selection. This is especially useful on sites with many bookmaker markets such as Bet365.

When do the alerts arrive?

Alerts can arrive at any time of the day, depending on when expert punters place bets that influence Pinnacle’s odds.

Do you recommend odds comparison sites for betting?

Odds comparison sites are not recommended because they tend to update odds more slowly than bookmakers directly.

What do the green and red ticks in the ShootingBets alerts mean?

Green Tick: Indicates that the Bet365 odds for that event are currently above the ShootingBets recommended minimum odds. This pick is highly recommended to look for, as it is likely to find value at any bookmaker, not necessarily Bet365. We use Bet365 as a reference bookmaker, but it does not mean that it is the only recommended bookie.

Red Tick: Means that Bet365 odds for that specific event are currently below the recommended minimum odds. Although the likelihood of finding odds with value is lower, you may still find value at other bookmakers.

What happens if there is no odds indication from Bet365 in the alerts?

In cases where odds cannot be found at Bet365 for a specific pick, we encourage you to look for odds at other bookmakers. The absence of odds at Bet365 does not mean that there are no value odds at other bookmakers. It is always advisable to explore different bookmakers to find the best opportunities.

How are the historical results shown on the website calculated?

Historical results are based on Bet365 odds at the time the alert was sent. They are considered for results if Bet365 odds are above the recommended minimum odds, but this is for reference only.

If I use this service, will bookmakers limit me?

It is possible that, by using this service and consistently following value bets, bookmakers may end up limiting your account. This can happen more quickly at some bookmakers than others. It is therefore important to open accounts with as many bookmakers as possible and spread your bets across all available bookmakers to minimise the risk of being capped.
