    DirectBet - The default goes to
    Quote
    Flexible Odds. Recommended In-Play. Confirm bet at the best available odds by the time the bet transfer is received. Odds might be higher or lower than current quoted odds.

    My personal opinion is that the default should be firm odds. Most that play live aren't use to being able to receive worse odds.

    Every time I go in to make a new bet it switches to flexible odds. That's blind betting.

    When you place a bet, the default betting option is what you selected for the last bet.

    If you never placed a bet before, or if cookies are disabled, the default is the "Flexible Odds" option.

    The reason for that is because this is now the recommended betting option for all bets and because it is the most used option, even at times when it wasn't the default.

    In the past, when you selected the "Firm Odds" option, if by the time we received your bet the odds decreased, we tolerated it up to a certain point and still confirmed your bet at the higher ordered odds.

    Now that we are offering the highest possible odds, we can no longer provide that tolerance, therefore, to improve your betting experience and avoid rejections, we recommend the "Flexible Odds" option for all bets.

    If you order a bet long before the event start time, when odds rarely fluctuate, and send out your bet immediately, your bet will confirm at the ordered odds virtually every time.

    Note that when odds fluctuate, the "Flexible Odds" option does offer you some protection. If by the time we receive your bet transfer we do not have odds or have unreliable odds, your bet will be rejected. We will not confirm your bet at unfairly low odds that do not truly reflect the probability of the bet outcome.
