While traditional sports betting involves placing wagers with a bookmaker or sportsbook, a less-known and unique aspect of sports betting is the concept of betting exchanges and peer-to-peer betting platforms. These platforms allow bettors to bet against one another rather than against the house.

Betting exchanges work by matching bettors with opposing views. For example, if one bettor believes a team will win, another bettor can take the opposing view, essentially "laying" the bet. This creates a dynamic marketplace where odds are determined by supply and demand.

One of the key benefits of betting exchanges is that they often offer better odds than traditional sportsbooks. Bettors can set their own odds or accept the odds offered by others, providing more flexibility and potentially higher returns.

Additionally, peer-to-peer betting platforms enable bettors to create and customize their own bets. They can propose unique wagers and invite others to take the opposing side. This opens up a world of creative and personalized betting options beyond the traditional markets offered by sportsbooks.
