What are the safest and most reliable sportbooks at the moment?

are there direct opinions of those who have won a lot and have always been paid?

Thanks for your help

Every gambling site that have gained good reputation and providing support for sports betting are safe to spend. If I say you can try Stake (https://stake.com) your mind might think he's doing it for the sake of carrying the signature. That's not what I want. Just give a try with it, and there are more gambling sites for sports betting. Find the one that gives you with the convenience and gains the trust of you.

You are right, it all depends on the player. He can try first the reputable sportsbooks here in the forum. It depends on the features that his after but better try the popular ones here. What I like about stake though is their low btc withdrawal fee as compared to other bookies.

Also, this should be in the gambling discussion board - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=228.0. OP can move it to that board.

-Sportsbet.io
-Stake
-Playbetr.com

These are places which i do hang out when i do tend to make bets but if you do want to see some others then this list will be helpful.

Just exclude 1xbit among the selections.

I don't know why you ask this question.

You were had a problem with stake with your €4,000, and you confirmed you have got your money back from stake. So, the best sportbook for you is Stake.com, or are you afraid to play on stake again and looking for other sportbooks?

Because of the upcoming Super Bowl, now is not the time to try a risky book. If a book plans to run, the best time is after the Super Bowl. The World Cup is another time when you should be careful.

I am sure that every recommended sportsbook are safest and will not try to scam their members because that can ruin their reputations. The problem will come from ourselves, which do not manage our money used for betting. I see sportsbet, playbetr, stake, nitrogensports, betcoin.ag, and the other sportsbook website on here have their reputations to serve their member and will not disappoint their members, as long as their members follow their rules.

Sometimes, a gambler will blame the sportsbook because the gambler cannot withdraw their money, but the mistake will be from the gambler itself, which does not follow the rules.

I use all of these site not just for Booking but for Casino as well Like PlayBtr.com though I disappointed because after 10 deposits yet i did not Get my free spins up to now.
Not only 1xbit but all the gambling businesses that affiliate with this scammer since there are many Sites not that has been proven connected to them.

He's obviously not happy how his money were locked for days because Stake flagged him for multi-accounts. He's only relieved that he got it back after a lengthy process and submitting his personal information. He doesn't want to go over that ordeal again that's why he's asking for a better alternative.

CryptoLoveee, you are already cleared of the accusation from Stake and there's no guarantee that other recommended sports bookie won't accuse you of the same case in the future. In that regard, I agree with janggernaut that Stake.com is your best option now unless you're looking for better odds and incentives.

sportsbet.io is the only i have tried since 2017 and still been playing there from time to time. i'm not a regular sports bettor since i only bet on popular matches, if there is no popular match, i will just not bet. recently i lose to that Mcgregor Vs Poirier fight.

Now that I'm with stake.com and have registered there. I guess I might just bet after all i already have an account.

I only Uses Sportsbet since then but once i tried Playbetr.com and of course they are good too but i stick in Sportsbet for reliability and also for the longevity they stayed in this business.
also their events conducting supported by big companies.

But i Heard that Stake is also good at it since they are the longest  in this forum and maybe outside .

Safest or should we say those gambling sites legitly offering sports betting
 You can find all those sports betting sites here (https://cryptomaniaks.com/latest-cryptocurrency-news/best-crypto-sports-betting-sites). You can also read there the feedbacks so you may decide which site will you going to choose.


Honestly, I rarely won on sports bet. Whenever I do some parlay bets I lose that is why it is better to stick to sports that you know the most. I always go back to the other games like dice as my luck wasn't that good in sports. Anyhow, I know other players who constantly won in sports. They have a background on each teams they are betting, not only relying on odds but also the team's background and previous performance.

I have played at a couple of crypto sportbooks but only Stake and  Sportsbet have stood out for me. Apart from a superior user experience, They have been straightforward with the promotions and has handled any issues raised by other community members pretty well. I started out at Sportsbet.io but I've been playing more at Stake of late and I haven't had any problems with my bets, the markets available or even with withdrawals.

There are other sportbooks here on the forum and people say they're trustworthy but I only have experience playing at stake or SB.

If you're looking for a similar sportsbook like stake I think sportsbet is the closest one as they offer clubhouse bonuses, cashouts and use the same odds providers as well.

Here's some of the sportsbooks i've used in no order (Nitrogensports, Stake, Sportsbet, Cloudbet, Fortunejack, Betcoin) and all of them always pay/process my withdraws.  

Maybe his stake account got limited after what happened and now he's looking for alternatives. Anyway it's better to open as many accounts from different sportsbook as possible so you have a lot of options to choose from.

 

I don't suggest you to listen on recommend although they are helpful but just make them as a basis and  better for you to do a research and select those old sportsbook who have big user base since mostly they are the one who's trusted and gain reputation for long years of doing a business here.

BitDice offers a sportsbook with a big selection of events and has recently had a big overhaul on the site overall. The site is also being improved constantly to bring a continuously improving experience for the players.

He has a lot of choices. If he wants to try another sportsbook, he can do that as he please himself. But he got the experience through stake and it's up to him whether he's satisfied or not.
You have plenty of choices to choose from OP, you can take your time researching and trying each of them if you got a lot of time.

Browse here https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=56.0

The sportsbook that I'm using now are as follows.

1-sportsbet
2-stake
3-Nitrogensports
4-Bitsler

I'm not endorsing it but I'm just sharing my personal choice as I never face any problem with these sites, and I'm sure people here will agree that these are good sportsbook.

Oh that's good as bitdice is now offering sportsbook? I thought after closing the campaign here there will be stopping
Of business but jow as this was mentioned meaning that Bitdice is is renewed ?
Looks like Playbetr.com  is not added on your list mate? They are also a good sportsbook provider.

Is exactly like this, i got my money back but i didnt sleep for 2 weeks so i would prefer to find other options honestly. or at least play in more site and have less money on each one

Another big broblem with stake is that they asked me KYC, and i use a BTC sportbook mainly cause i dont want to make KYC

Do you mean to drop the sites that are paying to those players who are always depositing and withdrawing big amount of money? There are no 100% safe platform but with regards to recommended then it will be better if you will do some background check for the top casinos like stake and etc.

Repuatation is very important especially the time of withdrawal processes whether it will be processed instantly even if you are withdrawing a huge amount of money. But let's see if there are big players here that are willing to share their experience on the casino that they are currently using.

To be frank with you all the other casinos suggested in this thread have done the same thing to other users. You can browse the Scam Accusation board and you'll see what I mean.

I understand the inconvenience that Stake gave you when they locked your account but you are now cleared of the accusation as I said. They haven't permanently banned you from playing have they? You can gamble to your hearts content unless they set a limit to your bets.

They are also a good sportsbook but since I don't usually play with the site, it's in the last of my list, and I think 4 is enough and there are still sites that are being recommended in this thread, so it's not really a big deal though.

It's also a matter of taste. What are the preferences for a user and what priorities do you set?

Some casinos have 10 coins where you can pay, and others also have fiat as payment option. It just depends on where your priority is.

Hey BoXXoB, how are you doing?  ;D Yes, BitDice has overhaul and continue to improved and glad to hear that. (I should know because I'm one of the longest participants of BitDice campaign  :)).

In any case I will just share my personal experience about sport books,

Top on my list is https://sportsbet.io/ and then https://nitrogensports.eu/, so far no problems whatsoever regarding deposits and withdrawal, everything is smooth so I haven't try any sport book besides that two. But there are lot of other sport books out there, just a matter of individual preference I guess.

There are many gambling sites and sports book.
But personally i love using Stake.com and Sportbet.io
Both sites don’t require KYC and both have a good history reputation.
I have made a haslee free cashout of more than 1k usd from both the sites without any difficulties.
I should recommend both the sites to you OP.
Wish you best of luck in Gambling.

all the answers has been laid out above so i think this will be enough to luck this thread OP.


Mine was Stake and Playbetr because these 2 site gives me wins at least enough to be trusted ?  and also these sites are the Most friendly user for me though sportsbet and FortuneJack also offers the same and i heard the Bitdice is now entering this area also .

I play at Sportsbet.io, Betonline.ag and Sportsbetting.ag.
If You prefer to convert crypto to USD, You should choose Betonline.ag and Sportsbetting.ag.
Sportsbet.io give You a choice in which currency to deposit and You can have many wallets as well with different currencies (FIAT and crypto).
I bet with thousands of USD 5k - 10 k and never have problems with withdrawal of reasonable sums up to USD 15-20 k.

Any of the options you received above are reliable, are sites that already have a lot of reputation and would not risk losing it.

Now your choice depends on factors such as: KYC requirement or not, minimum deposit and withdrawal amounts, restrictions on certain countries and the layout and usability of the site that you like best.

Good bets!

So those other 2 from Sportsbet.io is for those prefer betting using Fiat?or USD?
I'm not familiar to those sites because i'm not really good in sportsbetting but i'm trying to improve lol.

But fortune jack is also a good sportsbook and Stake .legit and trusted sites

There are many options that fit your criteria op as the posters above pointed out. Check these links out.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=717790.0

https://www.sportsbookreview.com/best-bitcoin-sportsbooks/

Some of them only accept crypto while some accept FIAT and crypto. Majority of them will limit you if you win too much. Betting exchanges like Fairlay and books like Pinnacle are the only ones that don't limit you no matter how much you win.

Though there are 2 sites that touches my attention and these are the 2
I have not seen these 2 being advertise nor being mentioned in my attention.
This is the most important thing , The KYC because some requires us depends on how much we need to withdraw or when we Win big amount.

But for me KYC in gambling really sucks .

Many people have expressed their opinion about the best bookmaker. I would also seriously consider the element of KYC.
Please note that more and more gambling sites have this as a requirement and that in the long run you should always give it heed.
That is something that you can not avoid if you play at a proper site.

In my experience, they've never asked for it. It's on their terms that it could be something that lies into your account that's why they've asked you.
And as I've said, you can choose from another sportsbook if you want. You're free to do it until you're very much satisfied. You have too many choices that will make you feel happy as a bettor.

I have tested a few, but the two I always come back to are Sportsbet.io and FortuneJack.
When there is a sports event that I want to bet on, I usually compare what odds those two providers offer. In my experience, FortuneJack has slightly better odds, but their deposits aren't instant and you can't withdraw to a native segwit address.

Sportsbet has instant deposits, but slightly lower odds. They do however have an odds booster option where you can increase the odds a few times each month. Their platform seems a bit faster when you submit a bet. With FortuneJack, there is a waiting period before your bet gets accepted.

But in terms of payouts, I have never had problems with either of those two casinos. The withdrawals are free and they cover the transaction fees.   

@bitterguy28,

Betonline.ag and Sportsbetting.ag are sister bookmakers with same odds provider, there You can deposit via FIAT payment methods like Visa, Skrill, Neteller, bank transfer and cryptocurrencies also. But your account's wallet is only in USD, which means in case You deposit via crypto, Your deposited amount is converted into USD.
In case You won, let's say and You want to withdrawal, Your withdrawal will be converted into crypto again, and You will receive crypto in case You choose to use that payment method.

Though there are 2 sites that touches my attention and these are the 2

@Reatim,

You can see here,
https://www.sportsbookreview.com/betting-sites/

Betonline.ag and Sportsbetting.ag are very reputable bookmakers, with Rating A+ and A.

try to go with sports betting website that has earned already a reputation and been running for a long time. i also think that gambling sites with license would be an advantage as well since it is regulated and of course legal.

You can try using Sportsbet.io because it's a sportsbook with good reputation on the forum, many promotions and special offers. Once I started using it, I sort of forgot about those other websites because I didn't feel the need to turn to them.
That being said, I gamble with a really small amount of money, whereas you seem to be into some high-stake betting. The thing is, Sportsbet.io reserves the right to ask you to go through KYC, so you should know that it can happen here.

Before playing any bookies make sure first that you will read their terms and conditions since not all of the bookies have the same ToS on their website some website have some rules that will lead on confiscating your funds so read the ToS first before playing. Well there are a lot of sports betting site here you could try to take a look at https://www.btcgosu.com/bitcoin-casino-games/sports-betting/ for the list and review

I would say the most reliable at this point is Stake.com. But many of the other bookies have better odds.

If you plan to bet big, I will recommend you to stick to Stake.com. If you are a recreational bettor, then you may want to check where you will get the best value instead.

See the Rating of TOP 20 BTC Sportsbooks here: http://100bookies.com/top-20-btc-sportsbooks-eng/

I see many people give advices, and I am sure that 60-70% of people who gave advice don't gamble!
It's not a problem to bet on sports on any crypto sports book, if your bets are not big, you will not have problems with any casino (betnomi, stake, bitdice from recently...and many others)! They are all good, and fast... The problem comes with higher bets! Not every casino gives you a chance to place high stakes, and even if they allow it you can have problems with collecting rewards and withdrawing (you will be asked for KYC and other stuff)!
Many pro sport bettors gives fiat casinos advantage... and they say there's no crypto sports book that can come close to some big fiat sports betting names!

Well, I've played on a bunch of sites and honestly they are around the same with respect to their reputation.

I think that you can't really go wrong with either Nitrogen, Betcoin.ag, or Stake. They have all been around for a long time and have paid out huge winnings without any issues (and their betslip grading are generally all quite fast as well).

As long as you avoid the known suspects such as Cloudbet, or others who tend to hold user funds regularly for KYC purposes, you will be fine.

That's very true. What I noticed here in the forum, there are actually a bunch of reputable sportsbooks here. If I may add FJ, bitsler also. Never had any issue with them. I am a small time gambler by the way.  ;) So don't know if you will be in the VIP status or high roller status, that's when you need to be careful. But those mentioned sites, are quite trusted ones.

Me, I will never become a VIP in a certain site as I don't really gamble a lot, but choosing the right gambling site, it's so easy, we have a community that are willing to help everyone, by checking the ANN thread and the trust profile of the OP, we can already tell on the gambling site's reputation.

Sportsbet seems the best sportsbook at the moment because they have each and every game included into their site with various payment options so users no need to look for other sites for new games. Whenever you are choosing a new gambling site then don't forget to read their terms of service before depositing any money because lot of people claimed that they got scammed but actually they violated the rules of that site.

Very intresting if you never had problems with so much money i think this make a huge difference

I trusted Fortune Jack and Playbetr.com for my Sportsbooking but i also booking now in Stake.com .

Actually i believe that everything has been Given above , almost all of the sportsbook are listed above so you only need to decide , But be Careful in KYC thing if you are not ready to have one.
There are site that requires verification of your legitimacy but some are Just Email , check the TOS briefly for your own assurance .

Yeah Understand your thought and appreciate your comment about them because i use this site commonly for my betting basis , i usually go from site to site finding common stand in my target game and if i found it reliable then i'll place my bet according to my searching ,
i don't just rely in single site instead from almost all of them.
In this way i can find a best result to my sportsbetting activities.

Sportsbet.io is pure scam. They have many members on the forum who support them, they can not be touched.
In any case, do NOT play with sportsbet and 1xbit!!

Same goes with adkinsbet.

Plenty of users defending them

Do NOT play at adkinsbet

I never had a problem with sportsbet.io.

Adkinsbet on the other hand is a whole different story.

So youre making some indirect words for MI6.Dont you?  ;D

Was suppose to say the same thing above ^^ that i dont have any problems with Sportsbet and it isnt a scam and checking out his trust feedback specially from Coolcryptovator.

"Calling a victim off-forum who has a problem with Sportsbet, but he isn't an authorized person from Sportsbet to resolve the issue. I have to say, most probably this was a scam attempt."

---

Going back on topic where i do make use of Sportsbet and dont have problems and having smooth experience compared to other bookies.

It is best to always use well-known, reliable and trusted sportsbooks for gambling & betting. Such as Nitrogensports.eu, Betcoin.ag, Cloudbet.com.

I agree that sportsbooks with ANN here on the forum are reliable! At least the active ones, by that you know that members from here are using it and you can check their reviews by yourself! And I am sure that for any problem community will help, admins from ANN threads, in case we are fair and honest!
Well, I think there is a lot more to be done with crypto casinos and sportsbooks to come closer to some big fiat casinos! But I think we are on the good track, and we will see some of the current casinos developed and updated, as the appearance of new casinos that will be in the spotlight with their site and offers!

To be honest, there are a lot of online sportsbooks out there to consider. I like how your question prioritizes safety and reliability instead of pouncing over sportsbook offering huge bonuses.
I suggest to check for sportsbook that have strong trust factor and longevity. The longer they have been established and have paid players only shows how trustworthy they are.

However, customer service is also huge factor. How they treat their players is paramount in the online gambling industry.

Better refer to this thread as the answers for your questions has been already answered there

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5307006.0

Sportsbook are given with good explanation so best to check them out .

I can't share anything new here that hasn't been shared above but I would like to add that I have really grown to like Sportsbet.io since playing with them seriously last year.

To be fair, I've played at other books too and I can speak kindly to all of them. FortuneJack and Sportsbet both paid me out on big winnings and never missettled. But the level of engagement with community makes you feel safe too.

OP is not asking about secured guaranteed win which is not possible with any sportsbook, he is asking about withdrawing the winning rewards with no issues because there is a lot of instances players lost their winning rewards due to the violation of their ToS.

Any of the reputable sportsbook that have a open ANN thread in this section is safe, or at least as safe as it gets when it comes to a sportsbooks that accepts cryptocurrency as payment.

Among the ones that I personally had experience with more than a couple of times I can suggest Betnomi as it worked as intended and they paid the winnings after a match almost right a way and there was no issue that is considerable along the way, one other one that I might give it a try soon is Stake since I'm hearing good things about it but then I haven't tried it myself yet so can't say for sure.

My suggestion is to just go through sportsbooks that have a topic in this section and read other members comment/reviews and decide for yourself if they are worth a try.

Sportsbet website is the one I mostly use for sports betting, I am trusting them for many reasons and one of them is that they are very active in bitcointalk forum, so in case of any small issue I can contact them here and everything gets quickly resolved.
So far I never had issues with any deposits or withdrawals, and they are on top of my list.

Alternative sports betting websites I use sometimes for better odds or live MMA UFC betting are Stake.com, FortuneJack and Cloudbet.
Do your own research and read their terms before using any of them.

Check out my list of betting websites to avoid:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5283832.0

Unfortunately, the most stable and safest site I know is not crypto - Pinnacle. They are not banning or limiting players, even the whales.

For crypto betting, I trust most in Stake.com. The second place is going to Playbetr.com.

Pinnacle is one of the most known sportsbooks that has ever existed but it's also accepting bitcoin.
(https://help.future.pinnacle.com/en/support/solutions/articles/11000092846-does-pinnacle-offer-bitcoin-as-a-deposit-and-withdrawal-method-)
And you'll see that they have a logo of bitcoin.

Both are good bookies that we have and there are others too, just browse on this section.

its my first time to know pinnacle but i was impressed if it started as a non crypto betting site and dont have restrictions because normally a non crypto betting site do have tons of restrictions including kyc , limiting deposits and withdrawals , banned countries  and crypto betting sites normally have less restrictions because they arent government regulated but they turned out to be stricter but sports bettor can finaly end that bs because pinancle starts accepting btc .
 they can switch  to pinnacle anytime they like

Breaking ToS or something that being applies whenever the house suspected your account.

If you don't have any issues or you are not breaking any rules, aside from providing KYC there's no hassle when you use reputable
casino websites, it's very important to research and deal with every information especially those house rules disregarding this rules
will backfire once something suspicious happened.

Just my personal thoughts only.

1-sportsbet.io
2-stake.com
3-playbetr
4-nitrogensports
5-cloudbet

Maybe some of these sites have issue, but personally I'd never faced any issue, that's my it's my personal opinion only.

You are right on this one
The stake.com platform has proven to be one of the young leading sports booking sites that offer bonuses and also good odds, am betting on stake for over a year now and have had no issue with their services.

Tried and tested and i can vouch for this 3 though Playbetr seems not giving the bonuses of when you deposit 10x , i was waiting for my free spins yet no response till now .
These two seems to me the Odd, but of course i have no experiences because i never use them at all.
\Nope you cannot consider them Young because they have been here for years now and proven their legitimacy .

There have been a lot of mentions of it through the gambling section and I think you've missed it. They're very known not just in crypto gambling but in the mainstream who's been into sports betting for a long time. Anyone can switch and use them if they want to.
I've seen some of the forum members who have experience in using them.

Even reputable websites also out winning rewards on hold number of times for suspicion of multiple accounts or simply they will ask the source of funds which they used to bet or due to odd errors as well. But if you won the rewards and you are facing issues then it can be resolved when the website cares about their reputation in bitcointalk so user should always prefer such kind of sites to ensure the safety of their winnings.

I guess he was highlighting the sports betting section on Stake which was recently introduced which is why I agree him in this case.

Am a Pinnacle user myself for sometime now and have pointed out on many occasions that it is easily one of the best sharp sportsbooks out there. The only con related to it is the KYC part in my opinion.

Great. Thanks for that opinion of yours that you've shared. If that's the case even with a good service, if you don't like complying with KYC, you have a lot of options to crypto bookies that allow players to bet even without complying with it.
But if the overall experience is good, it's you guys, who haven't experienced yet there to decide whether you want to use them or not.

Well, every sportsbook could have problems at some point regarding withdrawals. At least you have to make sure that you play at a sportsbook that has a gambling license.
There were serious issues with Stake.com the last period, their license even almost was terminated. I would avoid that one.
Sportsbet.io scammed already many people, that one should be avoided as well.

Sportsbet accepts fiat, so it hardly makes sense to include it on this list.

Sportbet accepts different payment methods which include cryptocurrencies and fiat as well so it makes sense because it has cryptos too and one of the growing crypto sportsbook in the recent years.

Sportsbet is the most popular sportsbook here in bitcoin, if IIRC, there's was a survey here and sportsbet won the votes of the majority, so there's no doubt it's one of the safest sportsbook at the moment as that's what people are telling.

I would say that you need to read the reply of op that he don't want to go through the trouble he's in on stake. Try checking his post history that his stake account got locked before until he got it unlocked that is why he wants to know other sportsbook to play as he wants.

I like sportsbet to and i see so many people suggest it, but for OP faster reading the result of what he is asking better if he create a poll and put the sportsbook list then let the people here vote on what is the best for them. I think this one will give much easier result also it's good to see who win among them by users voting.
