Like others have said, bet on the sport you are most familliar with.

However, in my opinion, I've found soccer to be the easiest to bet on, as the odds are quite good even with the over dogs in my opinion; I've made money betting on bundesliga.

Tennis might be another thing to try, the positive reactions in this thread have compelled me to try it. I'll try it out later and see how it goes.

Possibly, but in my opinion, I wouldn't bet on the semi-finals, as they might not try as hard to get first, and get just enough to qualify so that they don't overexhert themselves.

However, I do believe that you have reason to bet on Bolt in the finals, he will probably win it for sure.

It depends on the performance on the specific teams really, for example, the pro team fnatic has kept the same roster for a few years, but recently have had a huge roster change with godsent, as they are not performing as well as they could have and haven't won a major recently.

It depends on how well the team is doing; if it is doing well it will keep the same roster, however if they have issues the roster will change.

Selfless has made an official announcement here: http://selfless.gg/news/2016/8/14/selfless-csgo-roster-news-apologies-updates

Their roster has been changed; However I'll have to see them play a bit more before I bet on them.

I play sports betting the most, but since the sites I like have already been listed, I will list different ones;

bustabit.com - Fantastic site; it's unique and fun, and very suspenseful. Also, the owner is a nice guy.
satoshigames.io - Good site if you want a casino site; a lot of variety and slots!

I think it depends; as time goes on, the bitcoin community becomes more and more innovative, and things become easier eventually. For example, when faucets started, they were hard to set up, and there were no guides to help you out. Now, it is easy to set up a faucet. It's the same for gambling sites; moneypot has made making gambling sites really easy to create. You don't even need a big bankroll to get started! However, it's a different story if you don't know how to code.

If you know how to code, go for it! Setting up a gambling site can be very profitable if you have the right vision, and can code.

What do you mean? Investing is definitely safer than gambling, even if you include all the risk factors of investing. Did you lose money in the past from your investment? Sometimes, if you start to lose money on your investment, wait a bit more before withdrawing, as in the long term, you will probably profit as long as you don't panic and withdraw.

Unfortunately, there aren't any bitcoin gambling sites that offer this game. Straight up PvP multiplayer games simply aren't that feasible, unless there is a unique twist on them.

Since you said you wanted to play for fun, maybe you might be interested in these rummikub sites? There's no actual money involved though.

It depends where you are located really, maybe try www.nbcolympics.com or nbc.com instead.

Also, sports5 does work for live streaming, maybe try it again? Again, it depends on where you're based, it's possible that sports5 only works for people in certain locations.

Honestly, I think the USA can go all the way to the finals and win the gold medal, as USA has the best basketball team around in my opinion. I think the only way they would lose is if they get too arrogant, and accidentally let the other country get too many points ahead of them. My bets are on the USA.

I think however, that France can win against Spain in the quarterfinals. Might be a long stretch, but I think they can do it, so I'm betting a small amount on them.

I wouldn't say to completely jump straight into card games without any prior experience, maybe practice and do some research first. If you don't know what you are doing, card games are just like dice. Any game without a house edge works, but you need to practice.

There has been a lot of evidence against 999Dice being a trustworthy dice site, so I'm not surprised if something like this happened to you. I'd advise to look around this forum, and find a different dice site to gamble at, as posting your problem here probably won't give you any support from the owner.

I'd say it's more of a judgement call on where to invest.

For example, a new site can be prime to invest in if you only have a small amount to invest, as they won't have as many investors yet, so you can make more profit. Another example of being ok to invest in a new casino site is if the new site was opened by a trusted owner, for example, moneypot.com, which was opened by RHavar, who is trusted in the bitcointalk community. When it was new, I invested there and was one of the first investors, and I made a nice profit due to being one of the first investors when the bankroll was still small. Now, it's harder to make a profit with a small investment, due to the bigger bankroll.

Game: CS:GO
Match: Selfless VS Tectonic
Prediction: Selfless ML

Selfless can easily beat Tectonic, due to more firepower and skill. Not much to say here; just hoping that Selfless gets more used to their new lineup.

Have you even read the OP? He is asking about investing in gambling sites, not playing.


Yes, but the thing is that anybody can run away at any certain time; dicebitco,in was pretty trusted at the time as well. You just have to put faith in the owner really, nothing more. Most gambling sites have more to gain by staying than by running.

Good journey, good luck!

How good are you at sports betting? Are you in profit, or loss from sports betting? What sports do you usually bet on?

Looking forward to watching this, I might try something similar to this!


It's definitely hard, but if he has skill and can pick the right matches, he can pull it off for sure!

It's very possible that it will be Germany vs Brazil for the final.

If this happens, I'd say Germany will win, however it will be an exciting game to watch as the Brazillian team will try and get revenge for their humiliation 7-1 loss back in the world cup. Like you said, we should keep watching in order to make a more accurate prediction.

In addition to the sites mentioned above, you can also try sportsbet.io. The site you use is based on your preference, try them all out and see which one you prefer! Make sure you are betting on "Moneyline" (ML).

I didn't realize the odds were that low, funny that it happens to me often  


I think this is more of a psychological thing; I've also found that it seems like when you bet higher, you lose more. However, the sites are provably fair; they can't do this. It's all in the mind, as we tend to care more about our bet when the amount we bet is higher.

Either way, OP, if you were trying to find the odds to try and make a profit off dice, I'd advise against it, as the house always wins in the long run.

Not really, sportsbetting is a bit of both. Sports aren't that difficult to predict; sometimes there are upsets but not often. You can always analyze games, and see how big a chance of an upset will be. For example, a game in the regular season will have more chance of an upset than in the playoffs, as most teams try their hardest in the playoffs, as they want to go all the way to the finals.

Poker and blackjack are also strategy mixed with luck; however, strategy can help you beat the odds for sure.
