How Lines Are Selected for BettorEdge Competitions

Competition lines are set based on the current market order at the time of competition creation. Once a competition is created, these lines remain fixed for all participants, ensuring a fair and consistent betting experience.

Initial Line Selection

When a competition creator sets up a new competition on BettorEdge:

• The system automatically imports the current market order price for each event based on the community line.
• These lines reflect the real-time betting marketplace at the moment of competition creation
• The initial lines serve as the default betting lines for all competition participants

Once a competition is created:

• All lines are locked and will not change
• Even if market prices shift dramatically after creation, competition lines remain fixed
• This ensures all participants compete on equal terms throughout the competition

The fixed-line approach offers several benefits:

• Consistency: All participants face the same betting lines
• Planning: You can develop your strategy knowing lines won't change
• Transparency: Everyone sees the same lines from start to finish
• No advantages: Later entrants don't benefit from line movements

When joining a competition:

1. Review the competition lines carefully before entering
2. Compare them to current market prices if you want to spot potential value
3. Remember that these lines won't change even if market sentiment shifts
4. Develop your strategy based on the fixed competition lines
