# Why do I receive multiple updates to markets with the same id in the odds\_change message?

A market is uniquely defined by its *id* AND *specifiers*. Many markets have multiple lines, and the Betradar system provides odds updates for multiple lines in the same odds-update (e.g. the totals markets). More details on markets and specifiers may be found in the [concept](https://docs.sportradar.com/uof/introduction/key-concepts) section.
