# Life cycle of odds Life cycle of odds (LCoO) is a term used for markets which are offered pre-match only. These markets are closed before the start of a match, and are cleared as soon as the necessary result is reached, e.g. “*How many points will LeBron James score tonight?*”. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
