This type of betting allows players to make wagers after the game has started, with odds constantly updated based on the current state of play. It requires quick decision-making, as factors like goals, injuries, or time remaining can drastically affect the odds and outcomes. Many sportsbooks offer live odds and a variety of betting markets for in-running bets, such as the next goal scorer, match-winner, or total points.
In Running Example
For example, during a football match, if Team A is winning 1-0 at halftime, a bettor might place an in-running bet on Team B to come back and win.
