Hey guys, I was wondering what is the best Site to gamble BTC on for Sports?

Please don't suggest Cloudbet, they've already scammed me.

Also, what is the legal ramifications for betting BTC in USA? Do they recognize it as a currency and therefore gambling?

I think you should go for directbet.eu that is the best site when it comes to sports gambling, I am regular user on that site and I have a very good experience as they have never cheated, and your winning bets are transferred to your accounts in a quick time.

I'm not good in sports betting, so i didn't try this place in practice, but so far the nicest place I've ever seen for betting sports live was in Betcoin.tm.
They have no deposit bonus after registration, so probably you can try without risk, but for details you have to read their thread.
Till now i didn't hear about any issues with them.

The only i can suggest for you is directbet and also you can try nitrogensports but i think directbet.eu is more popular than nitrogensport..
Sorry to hear that you are scammed in cloudbet but  did you confirm that the cloudbet are scam you need to have some proof and submit to their support maybe they are some bug..

That is true. They are very well reputed site and so for I never had any kind of issues with them. All my winnings hostly deposited to my address without any delay. You also no need to open any account to bet on there site. There support also quite good and fast.

Directbet site is best for people who hate to open account and deposit before betting. I really like this site and I always only this site for sports betting even some people complain about there low odds. Also handle all your queries quite professional and always respond very fast.

I'd vouch for -> https://betbtc.co .

 How about giving/sharing more info?

directbet.eu is the best gambling site for sport betting also very popular in this forum and many people use thi site for their sport betting

Most users on this forum gamble  in Nitrogensport and Directbet you can try it out and compare which is best
For deposit and withdrawal think the best Directbet  :)

Nitrogen, Directbet, FortuneJack, LuckyBTC are all reliable options for Casino and Sports betting. As far as legality goes, it's illegal almost everywhere in the US and you "cant" use $$ for online gambling but.....a shit ton of people do it anyway so you have to weigh that risk. BTC is recognized as a commodity by the SEC.

if you had a bad experience feel scammed beacause of very long time payout settled. then you must try directbet as people here suggested. why directbet? you will never feel scammed because you know what ? make bet on directbet are instantly settled to your bitcoin address once the game finished , you don't need an account to deposit just pick, place and have fun!

Why play at directbet? Their lines aren't fair and it only takes a couple of minutes to get paid at books with fair lines. It should be embarrassing admitting playing unfair lines. It says I'm a loser!

I think Bitcoin is still not regulated in the USA it's actually banned in few countries and I am seeing a lot of Americans betting on sports with bitcoins every day so you are safe for now. And if you like to wager on American Sports I would recommend NitrogenSports they have a really nice selection there for all kind of lines.

Nitrogensports and directbet are the best place for sports gambling. i think it's safe for you to bet/gamble, you can also use vpn to visit gambling site if you're worried.

100% agreed, especially DirectBet which my site of choice for sports betting. Great support, no registration required and plenty of options to choose from. They also have a regular casino site with games and slots. If you are also into that I can also recommend LuckyBTCCasino which is in my signature and it's a great one too.

There are not legal norms or bodies specially against gambling off the bitcoins.The laws governing the usual gambling scenario covers up the bitcoin gambling scenes as well.Doesn't make a difference anyway.As for  question,I would suggest directBet. Anyonymous/fast/instant/good odds and quite good promos for new betters.

From own personal experience, I can recommend directbet and nitrogensports. Been using them for over a year, with no problems whatsoever.

as Peeps Place explain in table picture here the bitcoin sportsbooks rank based on user reviews regarding lines, support , legalities etc

first , NitrogenSports
second , Betcoinsports
third , Jetwin
fourth , bitcoinrush
...

i would recommend directbet too as they have a perfect service and supportthe only minor from directbet is yeah the very low odds.

You can see what happened to him in his previous two posts https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1349351.msg13747805#msg13747805 and https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=333552.msg13747856#msg13747856.

can you add more explication for the Cloudbet? How have scammed you ?

i suggest nitrogensport because have the odds more high, directbet is good for immediate payment, but more odds is low if comparated to another book

All of what you mentioned and to add some.

It's comprehensive and an overall rating.

1. Nitrogen, Betcoinsports and Cloudbet dominate the bitcoin sports betting market world wide. They are the biggest bitcoin sportsbooks with the most clients and seem to be safe. Jetwin has a clean record as does Bitcoinrush. DirectBet has the biggest backing here at bitcointalk.

2. Of the three biggest books, Cloudbet has the most hiccups as far as withdrawal times, customer support and other complaints.
 
3. In order to have a grading of "A" or "B" deposits and withdrawals must be done within a 15 minute window. Exceptions may be given to books with poker rooms. More fraud occurs in the poker rooms and books may need more time. There are also exceptions for large withdrawals and red flagged accounts.

4. DirectBet confiscated a player's deposit and winnings claiming an attempted hack. DirectBet has been made aware that confiscating a players deposit (bet in DirectBet's case) will prevent them from being a "B-" or above. Books rated "B-" and above are recommended. A book will never be recommended when they confiscate a player's deposits.

5. Email must be responded to within 1 day. The time frames set for deposit/withdrawals and email response were set with the help of feedback in the rating's thread.

6. Offerings and theoretical hold (margins) are included in the ratings.

thanks for telling us. i am quite happy with directbet until u tell me this which i feel very suspicious on playing on directbet.

you're welcome.

To add one more thing, the Super Bowl is a bad time to try suspect books. If a book is having problems, they normally will close shop after huge events such as the Super Bowl or World Cup. "A" and "B" books are best to play with Super Bowl day.

After the Super Bowl withdrawal times will be checked on all books and upgrades/downgrades may occur.

Directbet. Heard this from a couple of friends now. Think it is worth it to try it out.

It is actually the other way around. Bitcoin gambling is regarded in the same way as standard FIAT gambling services by US law - therefore is illegal.
That is also a reason many bitcoin gambling sites (PrimeDice) ceased their activity on US soil (if you are US citizen you can still access them and play via VPN).

directbet is solid if you want to control your funds and get paid to your wallet
after winning (downside is for every bet you have to go to your wallet and send
to their address then wait for it to show up etc)


If you are ok with leaving a balance use nitrogen I keep a bitcoin in at all times and
its easy to get down on games quickly without having to send it back and forth all
the time.

We at DirectBet believe that the 'No Account, No Deposit' type of wagering is the future of Bitcoin Betting.

DirectBet is the Safest Digital Currency Sportsbook as you do not need to have an account at DirectBet and we do not take deposits.

The "My Account" -> "Deposit" type of wagering belongs to the 90s. Today, you can bet with your coins and keep them safe in your wallet under your control while they are not in a wager.

Please feel free to contact us if you have any questions about this revolutionary type of betting.

All the Best,

i know , and evreyone already knew about it. most concern about directbet is yeaaa their lines absolutely not fair compared to other sportsbook or maybe fiat sportsbook. but i think they are currently improved their lines become better one. and the most important you must noticed is directbet was the fastest payout sportsbook which noone can not provide it and people want it.

I have never had a problem with DirectBet what so ever, not with their odds, payouts or support and according to me they're one of the best Bitcoin Sportsbooks.

As for your other questions about BTC gambling legality in USA, I think it is legal, since you're allowed to gamble online in US.

I could not say better. For me, this is the best betting site ever (even if I never tried any other ;D) ! The transfer of your winnings is quick. They'll never scam you.

On BetBTC you can both place anonymous bets or create an account and betting via account (more control).
Our model is different from another bookmakers, here you play against other users and not BetBTC.

We are a betting exchange meaning that we win when you also win.

This is the example of an anonymous bet, couldn't be more simple:
