not a great match for me... who won the BTC?
|
|
|
|
|
Peru v Denmark is very interesting betting proposition imo
|
|
|

How I can sell or withdraw token which I win ??
You can't, they are play tokens only. For the BookiePro beta. BookiePro goes live later this year with real BTC betting  But right now, in the beta, you use the play money ("BTF" or "BitFun") to win BTC prizes. Every World Cup match, the person who wins the most BTF gets BTC prizes.  |

In games of pure luck (roulette) maths is a more or less a waste of time long term - you are going to lose in the long term, maths can help you find the game where you will lose your money more slowly, or allow you to have strategies that allow you to lose more slowly.
In games where skill is involved, then maths can be your friend (but also your enemy).
For example, in sports betting (requires lots of skill), understanding the following mathematical concepts can make a big difference, some of them are 100% necessary:
- what do prices reperesent (e.g. 3.0 = 33.3% chance of something happening)
- staking (how much should you stake on each bet)
- statistical modelling sports events using past data (a h-u-g-e subject)
Poker is another good example, but the maths is relatively straightforward to learn - everyone just learns the same maths (probabilities) and pot payout calculations. Poker is so much psychology as well (yuk!).
Of course, managing your own psychology is ANOTHER super-important part of long-term winning in gambling. But without some good understanding of the maths... you are probably getting nowhere.
Wow mate it is the best short description of the can-math-help-in-gambling issue that I have read so far. With such an attitude I am positive you are going to be OK and it doesn't even make much sense to wish you good luck, which I am going to do nevertheless  good luck! thanks Pan! good luck to you too! |

Man walks down street and finds 10 dollar bill on the floor. "I would pick this money up... but other people could have seen this money and picked it up too. "I don't like this. It is unfair to me." So he leaves the money and walks away." |

hey andre, i had my mind blown about this months ago when i heard about the project. BookiePro is two things in one: (1) A Betting Exchange A complete unknown for most people here - next level sports betting, makes sportsbooks look like kindergarten. Back and Lay opens up a whole bag of profit-making opportunities if you have the betting chops. (2) IT'S BUILT *ON* A BLOCKCHAIN So everyone here who is interested in BTC because it's decentralized... you are still betting with centralized sportsbooks... private servers, centralized database, one bad actor and your money's gone etc etc. BookiePro is built on a blockchain. Read that again. The actual place where you make your bets is a blockchain. Everything is out in the open. It's bringing the BTC ethos to the whole betting operation. Kicking the scummy bookmakers out of the game. Revolution! App is free to download, 5 BTC giveaways for WC 2018... what's not to like lol www.BookiePro.fun |

but i guess we do need liquidity on BookiePro.
OK people, all aboard! World's first fully decentralized Betting Exchange!

good spot! @bookiepro, can you update the link please?

shhh! why are you telling everyone? |

What is the main issue with KYC ? Why is it so bad and frowned upon by people ? Can't it prevent misbehavior by users and be a positive thing in some of the cases ?
My guess is that its often a trust issue. Not everybody is keen on sending their personal information to strangers, especially unlicensed ones. If the platform is "trusted" and licensed, users would be less apprehensive about sending in their IDs. Crypto-currency gambling exploded with the promise of keeping their users anonymous. but that is no longer the case, some of them use KYC as an excuse to keep deposits. Nitrogen has been the best non-kyc book so far,with fair odds. coinbet24.com has been great in that regard, but their odds are horrible. Exactly it's a trust issue. Bitcoin allowed us to take this out of the equation, and centralized crypto exchanges, centralized BTC sports books, etc etc etc, have spent years trying to bring it back in. But BookiePro is built ON a blockchain... so it is decentralized all the way through. That's why there is no KYC... |
