A Python-based system that monitors sports betting odds across multiple bookmakers to find arbitrage opportunities and sends notifications when profitable opportunities are found.

• Fetches odds from The-Odds-API
• Analyzes odds to find arbitrage opportunities
• Stores opportunities in SQLite database
• Supports multiple sports and bookmakers
• Includes automated retry mechanism

• Monitors the database for profitable opportunities
• Sends email notifications for opportunities with 0.1% - 0.2% profit margin
• Includes detailed betting information and bookmaker links

1. Python 3.6 or higher installed on your system
2. The-Odds-API key (get it from https://the-odds-api.com/)
3. Gmail account with 2FA enabled for notifications

1. Clone this repository: \\�ash git clone https://github.com/ratsam3474/sports-arbitrage-system.git cd sports-arbitrage-system \\

2. Install required Python packages: \\�ash pip install requests sqlite3 smtplib \\

3. Configure API Key:

   • Open arbb.py
   • Replace 'your_api_key_here' with your actual The-Odds-API key: \\python API_KEY = 'your_api_key_here' \\

4. Set up Email Notifications:

   • Enable 2-Step Verification in your Google Account
   • Generate an App Password:
     • Go to Google Account Settings
     • Security
     • 2-Step Verification
     • App Passwords
     • Generate new app password for 'Mail'
   • Open arbitrage_notifier.py and update: \\python EMAIL_SENDER = '[email protected]' EMAIL_PASSWORD = 'your_16_char_app_password' EMAIL_RECEIVER = '[email protected]' \\

1. Start the Odds Fetcher: \\�ash python arbb.py \
   This will:

   • Create the SQLite database
   • Start fetching odds every 5 minutes
   • Find and store arbitrage opportunities

2. Start the Notifier: \\�ash python arbitrage_notifier.py \
   This will:

   • Monitor the database for opportunities
   • Send email notifications for profitable bets
   • Check every 5 minutes

1. Adjust Profit Margins: In arbitrage_notifier.py: \\python MIN_PROFIT = 0.1 # Minimum profit percentage MAX_PROFIT = 0.2 # Maximum profit percentage \\

2. Modify Sports List: In arbb.py, edit the SPORTS list: \\python SPORTS = [ 'americanfootball_nfl', 'basketball_nba', # Add or remove sports as needed ] \\

• NFL (American Football)
• NBA (Basketball)
• MLB (Baseball)
• NHL (Ice Hockey)
• EPL (Soccer)
• UEFA Champions League
• Tennis (ATP/WTA)

1. Database Issues:

   • Delete the .db file and restart arbb.py to recreate
   • Check file permissions

2. Email Notification Issues:

   • Verify App Password is correct
   • Ensure 2FA is enabled
   • Check spam folder

3. API Issues:

   • Verify API key is valid
   • Check remaining API credits
   • Monitor rate limits

• Python 3.6+
• The-Odds-API key
• Gmail account with App Password enabled
• SQLite database

• The system uses The-Odds-API free tier by default
• Email notifications are sent via Gmail SMTP
• Database is automatically cleaned every 5 minutes
• Retry mechanism handles API failures
