I was inspired to start this project after watching an arbitrage sports betting video on YouTube. I wrote a script and Discord bot to scrape odds from Australian sportsbooks and applied the Arbitrage and Positive Expected Value strategies mentioned in the video.

In just six months, I turned $700 into $7,000.

As the project reaches a stage where it scrapes over a million odds daily, I am leveraging cloud technologies like AWS Lambda and Azure Functions to optimize computing power and reduce costs.

This involves publishing several webscraping packages to npm and dockerising various functions for deployment on cloud services.

Ongoing and future plans for this project include expanding the web scrapers to cover more markets.
