Risk disclosure

Every bet WynFynd finds can lose money. Only bet money you can afford to lose. Never bet money you need for rent, bills or debts, and never chase losses.

A both-sides bet makes a profit whoever wins only if every bet goes through at the prices shown. It can lose money when:

• A price moves, or a site stops taking the bet, after you place one bet but before you place the other.
• A betting site refuses your bet, accepts less than you asked for, or changes the price on the bet slip.
• A site cancels (voids) one of your bets, so the other bet is left on its own.
• Two sites use different rules for the same bet. This can happen with overtime, a player who doesn't play, or a postponed game.
• You type the wrong bet amount, side or line.

Bet amounts are rounded, usually to $5 steps, unless you turn this off. Rounding can lower the profit of a both-sides bet. On a small bet, it can even turn the profit into a small loss. The ticket warns you when that happens.

Place Bet 1 first. If it goes through, place Bet 2 right away. Check each price at the site before you bet, and stop if a price has moved. The ticket shows what happens if Bet 2 does not go through.

A value bet (+EV) pays more than our estimate of its fair chance says it should. It still loses often, and you can lose many in a row. The fair price comes from one reference betting site, with that site's cut taken out. The ticket names that site. We use its international prices, not its Ontario ones. They can be old or wrong, and then the bet may have no value at all. Any gain shows up only over many bets, and only if our estimates are right.

Value bet amounts come from your betting money and your Bet size. Bold bets up to twice as much as Normal, so your wins and losses are bigger.

Most win-both bets (middles) lose a little. They pay off only when the final score lands between the two lines, which is rare. A low-cost both sides bet (low hold) costs a little whoever wins. People make these bets on purpose, to keep their money moving at a site. Both are still betting.

Betting sites may lower how much you can bet, or close your account. They often do this to people who make both-sides bets or value bets. Their own rules allow it, and it is common. WynFynd cannot stop a site from doing it.

If a site limits you, tap Site limited me in My bets, or after Skip in Telegram, and enter your new limit. Alerts that need more than that at the site are then marked Skip. On Pro, My bets also shows our guess of which sites may limit you soon.

Most betting sites have rules that let them cancel a bet if they say its price was an obvious mistake. A very big profit is often that kind of mistake. In the bet lists, on tickets and in Bet next, an unusually big profit or value never shows Go. If a site cancels one of your bets and the rest stand, you carry their full risk.

Live prices change every few seconds while a game is on. Betting sites also wait a few seconds before they accept a live bet. By then the price may have changed, or the bet may be refused. Live game alerts stay off unless you turn them on in Alerts.

Prices come from an outside data supplier, not straight from the betting sites. We do not see a price change at the site the moment it happens. How often we get new prices depends on our data plan. A price can change at the site, and we will not know until we get the new one. A price can also be missing or wrong.

Some prices are shown a few minutes late on purpose. This includes any free Telegram or Discord channel we run. It also includes the bets people see without signing in.

Each row in the bet lists, each ticket and each Bet next pick shows how old its prices are. There, a Go turns into Check first once its prices are more than 2 minutes old.

Every alert we send you says what time its prices are from. We update a sent alert when a price or its tag changes, or when you change its amount, not after every check. So the time it shows can be older than our last check. In Telegram and Discord, if we have not checked its prices for 5 minutes, we change its Go to Check first. A notification on your phone or computer is not changed that way: tap it to open its ticket, which shows the current tag.

Check the price at the betting site before you bet.

If a price at a betting site is not what we showed, tell us. In Telegram, tap Skip, then Price was wrong. A ticket on the website may also show Wrong price under each bet: tap it, then tap what was wrong. Reports help us see which sites often show wrong prices. They do not change any bet you placed.

Each bet gets a tag: Go, Check first or Skip. The tag, the score, Bet next picks and payout times are estimates. They come from past data and simple rules, and they can be wrong. Go is not a promise that a bet will go through or win.

You decide every bet and place it yourself. Follow each betting site's rules, bet only in your own accounts, and check every price before you bet.
