In sports betting, knowledge is a must. so if you know who is the better or stronger team there is a possibility that you can win unlike in other gambling games.
well yeah if you want to make some good money i think you have to get a lot of knowledge before doing any bets

yeah it is,

But not sports betting itself,
poker should also be considered as one of the gambling game
where gamblers pose a high chance of winning against the house
since poker use a lot of skills rather than luck.

So we should also consider poker as one of the best gambling if you are up on earning something.
Poker is a good game but I don't see it has more fans than sports betting, what I mean is that sports betting has no house edge and easy to play, so I guess this is better thank poker if you are just an ordinary gambler who wants to enjoy or maybe earn at the same time too.


technically both poker and sportsbetting has house edge , which is the cut that the house takes in order to offer the services
so in those the house is  a sure winner without even taking variance like other casino games
some people make money in sportsbetting , but I haven't found many success stories related to sportsbetting unlike poker where you can find tons of good stories

indeed I found a lot of stories about how fiat bookies are starting to ban winners , so I'm really not that sure about sportsbetting

Sane gamblers choose higher odds one, unless that site has other advantages, like directbet, its odds are lowest, but they don't require
username and password, direct deposit or withdraw from btc address.

By odds that are obviously different, like $5 and every other bookie is offering $3.50.
shapeshiftscam -- we don't require any personal verifiable signup material. It's very easy and completely anonymous.

IMO you cannot hold the user responsible for this. YOU are the operator and YOU are offering the odds. In 2 x 2 Event it's not even such a diff for the outsider team. It could be obviously wrong for you, because you are comparing it with somewhere else till user is looking at YOUR site. 

Otherwise I need to loose my time on every single bet to check it on other bookies and I guess in many cases I will choose those other bookies too.
It isn't that special of a condition - a lot of sportsbooks have something like that. Sometimes errors are obvious, and it would be way to costly for ghostbook to pay it out. If I accidentally mix up my odds, and give the heavy favorite @10, and the underdog @1.1, that would be an obvious error. I think your example (ghostbook) is a bad one. For one of my arbs, coinbet24 thought differently and offered @3.5 on an event where cloudbet offered @2.5. It wasn't an error though, and they just thought differently of the games.

yeah I think ghostbook didn't explain that well
in general getting higher odds isn't exploiting , I have bet on many matches where the odds are higher clearly in one book over others
but that's not exploiting , it's just how the markets work and that's why we don't only have one bookie to place our bets at

when people are betting heavily on a specific team on a specific bookie obviously that team will have low odds and the other options will have higher odds
but in other bookie bettors may be going heavily on a draw for example , which means the favor team will have higher odds in this book

Good to see you are improving. And x10 is much better and less exploitable.

What do you mean by "Don't take advantage as we'll be checking during grading"?? You are offering service/odds and at some point users can be fucked/guilty because they choose to bet with you?! For example if I want to bet on my team and see that on other bookies is 1.90 and with you is 2.00, of course I will choose you.

I think he means about the upcoming lines , there may be some bugs in the odds but those bugs are usually easy to detect
as long as the results don't lead to a sure bet then you should be fine , and the bookie shouldn't cancel the bet
but for example if the bookie is offering 2.3 and 1.9 for both under and over 2.5 then this is a clear bug

me as a gambler every time I wan't to make a bet I check the other bookies , I never made a bet in a bookie when there is other bookie offering higher odds for a specific event , so this is not exploiting it's just what sportsbetting about
3964  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Portuguese League Prediction Thread (Primeira Liga) on: September 23, 2016, 02:43:27 PM
for today both of the clear favors are playing home so I won't bet on goals or any other line except the moneyine
so I will parlay Porto and Sproting Lisbona to win their matches , the odds aren't great but I think this is a safe bet with kinda good potential
hopefully it's easy money  Grin
3965  Economy / Gambling / Re: [!] Ghostbook - New Bitcoin Bookie - Only on Tor [!] on: September 22, 2016, 12:35:55 PM
first you said that you don't offer matches for that competition , and I'm telling you you offered all the matches yesterday
the match I bet on was with the other matches in the list !!! so there is definitely something wrong by your side
how am I supposed to trust what you are saying !! you still a new a bookie which is running on the TOR
yes mistakes happen but this is a killer one !! what next , I bet on UEFA champions league and then you tell me that I placed my bet on the next round !!

you and others can tell me if this is a professional way to handle the problems !!

We don't have it listed as EFL, we have it listed as English League Cup. I made a mistake in haste trying to figure out what went wrong. I didn't change your bet if that's what you're implying. All I can say is please make sure that the expiry of the game lines up with kickoff and the league is correct. Two teams playing each other within days in different leagues is stupid imho. If the game pays out on the 25th we have no problem with that. It's up to you.

it's not about the name of competition anyways , my point is that the game was listed with other games under the same tab !!
anyway , since it's funny as hell accident I will let it go but please organize your bookie cause as I said I'm 100% sure that the game was listed with yesterday's games

please refund my bet , I will look for another match
3966  Economy / Gambling / Re: [!] Ghostbook - New Bitcoin Bookie - Only on Tor [!] on: September 22, 2016, 12:18:27 PM
so here is what's going on , two days ago I placed a bet on Bristol to win against fullham
the match was listed with the other games like Swansea vs Man city and Man Utd vs Northamaptown
now they are saying that I placed my bet on the upcoming match , and they don't offer bets on EFL games , which isn't not true cause I said all the matches yesterday were listed in their bookie , I even had pms here with this guys and told him that I was going to bet on Man UTD but their bookie went offline

After a full review of all the football games we had posted that day, we post so many games and leagues I had to check. There was two games listed. One on EFL (22nd) (English League Cup - we classified it as, not EFL, I had to confirm) and one with Championship (25th). You bet on the wrong game. We've offered to refund the bet. The odds were vastly different between the games, surely if you're comparing other bookies you would think somethings not right.

This is an honest mistake and we're willing to refund the bet if you wish. Offer still stands

first you said that you don't offer matches for that competition , and I'm telling you you offered all the matches yesterday
the match I bet on was with the other matches in the list !!! so there is definitely something wrong by your side
how am I supposed to trust what you are saying !! you still a new a bookie which is running on the TOR

so you can judge yourself

so after the last problem with the site I requested a withdrawal request of my last deposit and I received the funds instantly
but I still have a pending bet which was a win yesterday , I placed that bet like 21 hours before the match
so I don't know what's wrong with the site at the moment , cause as I said I received the withdrawal but still have a pending winner bet

 
3969  Economy / Gambling / Re: [!] Ghostbook - New Bitcoin Bookie - Only on Tor [!] on: September 21, 2016, 09:24:08 PM
is there anyone here knows anything about TOR ?? it's been around 5 hours and I can't access the site
and I got some funds stuckin there , so couldn't bet in the latest events  Angry
3970  Economy / Gambling / Re: [!] Ghostbook - New Bitcoin Bookie - Only on Tor [!] on: September 21, 2016, 04:25:56 PM
I was making a deposit , and after that I entered the depo details but when I clicked process it seems that the site went down
will my deposit be credited ?? cause I noticed that you automatically change the deposit address for each transaction

also is there any solution for this ups and downs , I noticed that there are many times in the day where I can't open the site
it shows : Tor2web Error: Generic Socks Error
Sorry, we couldn't serve the page you requested. Please try again later or use a different tor2web server.

I have zero experience with TOR

EDIT : it's been 2 hours and I'm not able to reach the site !!!
3971  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Was there ever a profitable cloud mining site? on: September 19, 2016, 07:21:43 AM
in my experience I don't know any profitable mining site that wasn't or isn't a ponzi
Hashocean was a good ponzi , so maybe it was profitable for many but at the moment there is no good site even ponzis

hopefully because people stopped joining these sites , but yeah other than ponzis I don't know any profitable site that operates or operated before
3972  Other / Politics & Society / Re: "USA military help to ISIS" - today evidence. on: September 19, 2016, 06:39:17 AM
This isn't a surprise at all. Not all that long ago a US Army Intelligence Officer uncovered information showing that the US, Israel, and a host of Gulf nations have been funneling money to ISIS via swiss banks.
Yes ,but not only money i think cause there's a conspiracies and rumors about it that U.S also supply ISIS guns and bullet .as i am wondering about that rumor that where do big calibers and bullets of ISIS are not shorted .
Well as i know U.S they are hiding more activities on the public and they have the power to control over it cause they think they are the most powerful and innovative Country.

They are sending weapons for ISIS too , come on guys the weapons weren't carried by angels who dropped them for ISIS fighters !!

US is clearly involved in funding ISIS with the allies like Turkey , the whole terrorism in Syria is now only serving the US benefits
last attack wasn't an accident . it's just not possible for a country like the US to make such mistake by accident
3973  Economy / Gambling / Re: [!] Ghostbook - New Bitcoin Bookie - Only on Tor [!] on: September 18, 2016, 12:14:00 AM

I can remove the deposit bonus, that's fine. The condition is you need to turnover 5x on games with more than $1.50 odds.
You have a choice, I can remove the bonus now, or leave it but you would need to meet the conditions.

If you bet your deposit but no more, you can withdrawal the winnings, but forfeit the bonus.

Yes I agree about the deposit checks, we're looking at automating the deposit blockchain checking side of the transaction.

Thanks for your questions.

I have bet exactly my deposit , I didn't even add the 1 mbtc that you give as a bonus so I can withdraw if I won without contacting you ??
if you can help now by removing the bonus and the 1 mbtc that would be great , it's annoying me to see extra money in my cashier that I can't withdraw  Grin

keep the good work up guys , and I really hope to see you raising the limits soon  Smiley
3974  Other / Politics & Society / Re: "USA military help to ISIS" - today evidence. on: September 17, 2016, 11:39:18 PM
USA said that it was an accident. Lol fags. Accident my ass. It was clear since the beginning. USA clearly wants to invade Syria and overthrow Assad. Turkey fights against Assad. Isis fights against Assad. Turkey caught while sending missiles to Isis. USA bombs Assad base. All clear as day. USA=Isis.

yeah and their fucked up media says that the Syrian Army is killing the Syrian people and other bullshit !! accident in 2016 with all the technology that US have !!
US and their media is a total joke , they clearly support terrorism and spread lies about what's going in Syria

anyway the Syrian Army is already preparing for taking back that area , it will only be a black point in the US history

are the deposits here need manual confirmation ?? cause I just made a small deposit to test the site and there is a window that asked me to enter how much I deposited and to provide the tx id !!
I'm ok with one confirmation on the blockchain , but if it needs a manual approve then this is not good at all

anyone had an experience with depositing to the  site ?

Hi SyGambler, your deposit has been processed and bonus matched. Have fun.

thanks , I really like your bookie cause you have some matches with higher odds than other bitcoin betting sites
so now my balance showing double my deposit cause I have a matching bonus Huh cause I don't want a bonus if I can't withdraw my money after winning
can I bet my total deposit and withdraw it without the bonus if I won ??

also I think that you should remove the manual approve for deposits , cause it really doesn't make sense
one confirmation should be more than enough
3976  Other / Politics & Society / Re: "USA military help to ISIS" - today evidence. on: September 17, 2016, 11:26:21 PM
yeah we heard the news here today at around 6:00 pm , sadly many of the Syrian soldiers died
and after the US attack , ISIS attacked the Syrian army and controlled that area

people should wake up and realize that  the US is the main supporter of ISIS  , without US and their allies terrorism will disappear

3978  Economy / Gambling / Re: Bitcoin Casino with level up faucet on: September 17, 2016, 09:18:53 PM
bitvest has 20 levels , and by leveling up you can get a higher faucet
but the amount that you claim from faucet doesn't count in leveling up , cause you can claim " tokens " from faucet which equals real bitcoin
and you need to claim at least 200K tokens then you can exchange it to bitcoins , then if you decide to play you can start leveling up

in general when you are playing with tokens you won't level up

rampagejackson = directbet.eu. Both are one and the same.

at first I thought the same , cause ramapgejackson was the only highroller that prefers Directbet
I thought that why is he choosing DB when he can make a lot more in other bookies " due that the odds on Directbet are mostly lower than other bookies "

but as he said , he loves ether and this is a great explanation of what's going on
3980  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why is it Sports Betting is better than other type of gambling? on: September 17, 2016, 12:34:20 PM
sportsbetting isn't the best in my opinion , it's only good for people know what they are doing
people really overrate sportsbetting , I mean for sure there are some people who are making money from it but the majority are losing
and the odds in sportsbetting are usually tricky , simply you can't know if you did a good bet or not
in dice you know that every bet you make you are behind 1% , but in sportsbetting you may be behind more than that and your bet may actually be a +EV one

so it's good only for experts
