Cricket Live Betting — can we get best of both worlds?

Tonight, I'm going to try to get a positive pay out no matter who wins. What should the plan be?
I was thinking on betting on whoever wins the toss, and then keep an eye on progress from there.

Whats the latest time you can bet? And do the odds change or do they stay the same?

Cause I reckon the best time to bet would be after the first innings, but if the odds fluctuate then obviously if the team batting first got 300+ their odds would come right in.

You can bet live.
I did it when Sri Lanka beat Australia.
Sri Lanka got off to a great start (Jayuisira went nuts with the bat) and came into 2.10.

Odds constantly change throughout the match, when Sri Lanka were hammerimg the South African bowling last match, South Africa went out to as much as $2.50, then when Sri Lanka had their el calapso south Africa frimed big time.
Best chance of winning is porbably the over/under batsman runs. Which start off quiet low.

The odds fluctuate like the stock market.
I was going to get on South Africa at $1.25 in the innings break last time, but was working.

I did it today... I put 50 on the Lankans when I found out they won the toss and batted, but that was at $2.05. Then, when Jayasuria was pounding that Stein bloke around, I went 50 on Seth Effrica at the same price.

So an awfully hard way to win $2.50, but with a fair amount of coin it could be done properly.

I was watchig it at the pub on the way home, and had a Sri Lankan ticket filled out and at the ready when the score was 1/19. As soon as I saw Gibbs leading edge that catch back to Vaas, I threw it in the terminal, beforehe could take the catch. It was another $50 on Sri Lanka at the juicy odds of $1.95.

So all up yesterday, I spent $150 for a $200 exactly collect, although if that last one had of lost, it would have lost $50. A bit of a tedious way to win money, but if you do what I did and have the ticket going AS a wickets being taken, you can get good overs.
