“Betfit.com Releases New Betting Exchange
for Online Gambling”
With the launch of the new betting
exchange, BetFit, Global Entertainment, a Costa Rica based
company, has begun a new era in the ever-evolving online
gambling industry. The betting exchange, according to BetFit’s executive director,
Ricardo Silva “is a facility where consumers place
bets between each other on the outcome of a certain event.
Like real world bets about the outcome of a certain game,
one person bets on a certain outcome and another bets against
it. Consumers do not bet with the fixed odds offered by a
traditional sportsbook. On the contrary, they negotiate the
prices of their own bets, thus obtaining better odds. With
betting exchanges, consumers make more profits and have more
fun.”
BetFit is betting (pun intended)
that BetFit will attract clients of traditional sportsbooks
who immediately recognized the inherent advantage of the
betting exchange. Of course, BetFit won’t turn away
customers coming from the already established betting exchange
markets and online gambling sites either.
Analysts are predicting a big shakeup
in the online gambling industry with the advent of betting
exchange sites. The betting exchange sites are definitely
ushering in a new era. Even the name “sportsbook” has been affected since
it has had to acquire a new name (“traditional sportsbook”)
to differentiate from the new one now currently called “sportsbook”.
Meanwhile, more traditional sportsbooks are adapting their
system so it matches the new system (clients from the traditional
sportsbooks are going over to the new sportsbooks as they
begin to understand its advantages).
BetFit itself exhibits many attractive qualities already and
an even newer version of their software, due out in the middle
of 2005, promises to revolutionize the industry even further.
