bovada review after live bets got accepted late and cashout vanished fast.

Had a weird one during the NBA playoffs. Put in a live bet on the over, clicked confirm way before the next play, but it lagged and got accepted almost a minute late. Of course, the score changed right after my confirm, so I ended up with a number way off from what I actually intended. Then when I looked for the cashout, it was there for maybe five seconds - vanished right when I tried to hit it. Felt like it was just taunting me.

I’ve played a fair bit of live dealer roulette and you get the same thing sometimes - button delays, but at least you see the wheel in real time. With these live bets, it’s like you’re always a step behind. Anyone else notice these timing issues getting worse lately? Makes me a little more cautious about putting down fast bets. Just wondering if this is par for the course.

Yeah, that kind of delay would make me way more cautious with live bets, especially when the line can move so fast.
