It seems like Ginebra's win streak is about to come to an end. Meralco is currently dominating the game with a 15-point lead, and with less than 5 minutes remaining, it's unlikely that Ginebra, the 'never say die' team, will be able to mount a comeback. I hope you guys win this game because it's evident that Meralco will bounce back after their disappointing loss.
Just giving my insight as I read it somewhere that arbitrage is closely being monitored by bookies to avoid such an edge from the gamblers.
Indeed, they closely monitor arbitrage betting since it guarantees a win for the gamblers. It's generally acceptable to engage in arbitrage betting using two different gambling sites as it's less likely to be noticed. However, if you consistently perform arbitrage betting on a single site, especially with substantial amounts, they are likely to become aware of it. It's important to note that while it may not be illegal, at least according to the article, it is closely monitored by the platforms.

Is Arbitrage Betting Legal?
Arbitrage betting is not illegal, but bookmakers try their best to stop it. While operators cannot technically take away the profits that are made, they will try to limit accounts and cancel bets to halt arbers.
This means that even for low-lying, profitable arbers, not all risk is eliminated: They are playing a cat and mouse game with the bookies in order to not get caught – or “gubbed”.

Just one question to the veterans out here, if i bet for Ginebra now for that ML odds, would i be violating bookies' TC since i already bet for Meralco last night with an odds of @2.05?
Firstly, I am not a veteran, but I can answer your question based on my experience. I have done that before, and I have had no issues when it comes to waiting for the bets to be settled. In my opinion, there is no violation involved in taking advantage of such opportunities to make money by betting on both teams and accepting the odds offered. Such opportunities are rare, and besides, the potential winnings are typically just a small percentage when betting on both teams with underdog moneyline odds.
I have also tried it once, and I didn't encounter any problems, so I believe it's a normal way of betting, similar to hedging your bets. This type of betting is commonly known as 'arbitrage betting.' By the way, I hope @bisdak40 didn't bet on Ginebra because Meralco is currently leading by double digits, indicating that they are likely to win the game.
I think what Kabayan bisdak is trying to imply is the chance of being notice by the sport bookies, yes you can do that kind of betting when there's adjustment that take place, but we also need to consider that if the bookies notice you and if you are using a huge amount of money, arbitrage betting can be the reason why your account can be freeze or the amount of your allowable bets can be decreased.

NorthPort ML @1.97 vs NLEX
Meralco Bolts ML @ 2.05 vs Ginebra Kings
^^ My bets for tomorrow's games. Still betting on the underdogs but these games is pretty even that either team could be tag as the underdog. Of the two, i have a feeling that Ginebra's winning streak will be broken by the Bolts tomorrow, winning three games in a row was impressive with a depleted line-up but against Meralco i think they will lose
.
Good luck on those who will bet tomorrow.

The Ginebra Kings are currently on a good momentum, so it's a tough call, my friend. However, there's always live betting available where you can place bets in case you think Meralco would mess up again. You know, this game will be unpredictable as we are still in the PBA ON TOUR. Meralco might bounce back big time after a disappointing loss in their previous game, so anything is possible.
The odds for the game between Meralco and Ginebra has shifted my friend with Ginebra now as the underdogs, I noticed this early in the morning. Maybe the bookies realized that Meralco has a stronger line-up than Ginebra or just the money has flowed in favor of Ginebra when they open the betting.
Ginebra 2.27 vs Meralco 1.56

Hopefully in the next match Magnolia will perform well again with the aim that we can bet there.
They are very consistent, so there is a 100% reason to bet on them. Personally, I would take whatever spread they have in their next game because I know they have a high chance of covering it. Sometimes, we have to be cautious when choosing the underdog, as they could be a big trap that results in losing money. What may seem attractive to us may not reflect the actual game, as seen with Meralco being an underdog with a +12.5 spread. In reality, they were simply dominated. 
Magnolia seems so serious about their games, maybe they want to finish this tournament without a loss so I will be considering betting for them next time around.
I'm a little bit profitable for last night's games because i have added a bet that Magnolia would score +103.5 @1.96, a good catch since most of the time Magnolia score more than 120 points so just over 100 points is a good bet for Magnolia, bookies might have missed this one hehe.

I saw the betting opportunity but didn't dare to risk it despite the fact that Magnolia could easily win.
In several matches Magnolia did play quite well and this is the reason for doubt whether last night's game they could win or not but the doubts made me regret a little for missing it.
Hopefully in the next match Magnolia will perform well again with the aim that we can bet there.
Not for Mags, as they continue their clean records with another dominating performance. From start to finish, they did not give any chance for Meralco to rally back, after establishing that huge double digit lead in the first half. It was very clear that they were not willing to give hope or anything for Meralco.
Paul Lee led the almost complete squad of Magnolia, seems that they are serious in this On-tour game hahaha..
Bawi ka lang Kabayan sa game, not sure if same as well with your bet as odd is different from both games.

Great catch! Taking another kind of bet, especially if you also watch them over, that's a kind of opportunity where observation really matters. I also think that it might be a missed as most of Magnolias game they managed to cover that range, another additional profits
to your bankroll, Ikaw na talaga Kabayan!
In terms of Magnolia, might be better to back them up or look for value bets if there are available. Good Luck! Go for more!

The way they are playing shows their seriousness, as they continue to win by large margins. As we can see in the (https://pba.ph/recap?match=2274102), it is evident that Magnolia is utilizing their regular season lineup, although without the involvement from Calvin, but still possessing a strong enough roster to dominate a team missing their starters.
Right now, it's time to relax and wait for the game to start in Wednesdays, that would give us enough time to analyze the upcoming games.
We've witnessed the never-say-die attitude. That's what they demonstrated with their big run, which ruined the chance of DYIP in that game. Even though they were on tour and missed their starters, Ginebra still played very well in their two consecutive wins. So, I guess we can trust them in their succeeding games.
Yeah, lost big time on that game, i thought that was money in the bag for DYIP as they led most of the game but suddenly a run by Ginebra Kings ruined it all. That was the Gin Kings third consecutive win so we might be careful on betting against them the next they are playing.
Blackwater +2.5 @1.86 vs Beermen
Meralco +12.5 @1.96 vs Magnolia
I hope this time around that both underdogs will cover the spread or win their games tonight.

Magnolia continues their dominant performance, but hopefully, Meralco will be able to cover the spread. Currently, Magnolia is already leading by double digits, but the game is far from over. Hopefully, you'll secure a win on that. By the way, congratulations on your win in the first game! Blackwater did a great job and came out victorious. I hope this time around that both underdogs will cover the spread or win their games tonight.

It looks like another win for Bisdak tonight. There are three minutes left in the game, and DYIP is performing well, leading by 4 points. Even if they can't secure the win, they will at least cover the spread, making it a profitable bet. Of course, I hope they will win, so I'm supporting you, kabayan. Get this win again!
Unfortunately, the bet was ruined as not only did the Gin Kings win the game, but they also covered the spread. The game was closely contested in the 4th quarter, with DYIP even taking the lead. However, the Gin Kings managed to go on a 12-0 run, ultimately finishing the game with an 8-point victory.
Not sure what happened but when I did check the score when Kelvinid posted his reply, I also in the impression that it was a win for bisdak, leading 4 points and that additional +4.5 for the handicap, in 3 minutes time frame they can just relax the ball and try to keep exchanging basket, but unfortunately like you mentioned Gin kings made that rally a 12-0 run.
That's how PBA works, especially it's an on-tour game, a classic Gin kings never say die attitude.

That's 12 to nothing run by the Ginebra San Miguel is a big nightmares For the terrairma Dyip because they will leading that fight then in the end of the fourth quarter the will see themselves as a losser. Which means that they are too clumsy they have the opportunity to win that match because they are in a strong lineup while the barangay ginebra are not complete to compete because they start players are representing out country.
