Bet365 bet delay cooked me

Tried to hit a live soccer line last night, but the odds stalled for like 10 seconds right as I confirmed. By the time it went through, the number was way off and I got stuck with way worse value than I wanted. I get that they do this to stop obvious middles or arb situations, but it feels borderline predatory sometimes. Like, it's not just when there's a goal or major play, the lag seems way too convenient when the odds are in our favor.

Anyone else noticing more of these delays on live bets lately? I know the house has all the leverage online, but it's making me rethink chasing live edges unless I'm sitting there ready to get burned. If they've got some better method for real-time odds, I’d love to know.

10 seconds is ridiculously short lol. I can see why it feels unfair, but I’d rather check the official rules and what actually happened before calling it a scam.
