How a book runs

A round, in four pulls.

Mate Bets matches a real bookmaker's flow but uses fictional credits. Same scoreboard, none of the stomach pain. Free for one book of up to ten regulars.

I
Open a book
Name your league, send the invite code. Every member starts on 1,000 credits.
II
Add an event
Real fixture or in-joke. Quick Lines pulls live odds for actual sports — or write your own with custom odds.
III
Take the bets
Members stake on either side. Odds lock at the moment a bet is placed, so the early movers get the prices.
IV
Settle up
Landlord declares the result. Payouts auto-credit. The chalkboard updates in front of everyone.
