1  Economy / Gambling / Re: Overview of Bitcoin Accepting Sportsbooks (with margin/house edge comparisons) on: December 03, 2018, 07:24:28 AM
Since OP said that he will add esport but he still not do it yet and I also doing comparisons on esport too. I decided to shared it here.

I have to included 1xbit here because It provide biggest coverage in esport. Can't skip them sorry.

ESPORT:
- = Not available.
|Sportsbook|Match Winner Margin|Over/Under Margin|Handicap Margin|
|Buff88|5.88%|6.25%|6.21%|
|1xbit|7.40%|9.77%|8.56%|
|mBitCasino|5.88%|6.25%|6.21%|
|Nitrogen|5.97%|-|-|
|Sportsbet.io|5.90%|7.86%|7.97%|

Now compare with real money sportsbook.

|Sportsbook|Match Winner Margin|Over/Under Margin|Handicap Margin|
|bet365|7.61%|9.11%|5.79%|
|Pinnacle|4.87%|-|4.78%|
|gg.bet|5.53%|7.53%|7.41%|

Overall: esport have extremely high margin. Even Pinnacle have 4.87% margin. I hope in future some sportsbook can step up and give better margin than this.

Thanks for doing this! Mind if I add it to the thread (with credit to you)?

Also, what event(s) did you compare? I would expect that margins highly differ in eSports depending on the event - some minor CS:GO qualifier is going to have a higher margin than LoL Worlds.
No problem! You can put my comparisons to main thread. And it's BIG vs HellRaisers which is 3rd place decider match for SuperNova CS:GO Malta. BIG is #10 and HellRaisers is #15. Liquid (#3) also attend in this event but Liquid play in grand final. I pick this because this match is very close. Unlike grand final where Liquid look like big overdog.
Tomorrow will be the first day of one of the biggest CS:GO event ($750,000 price pool. Almost all top 10 team attend) So I might gonna do it again in tomorrow Cheesy

Update
This time I'll use Astralis vs Liquid as the reference of comparisons. It's 5 stars match and one of the best match in this month. So I think all sportsbook will make their margin better than old one

- mean Not available.
= mean odd is same (look at percentage and it will tell which one is duplicate)
|Sportsbook|Match Winner Margin|Over/Under Margin|Handicap Margin|
|Buff88|6.21% (=)|6.53% (=)|6.44% (=)|
|1xbit|4.38%|8.23% (=)|8.82%|
|mBitCasino|6.21% (=)|6.53% (=)|6.44% (=)|
|Nitrogen|-|-|-|
|Sportsbet.io|5.88%|8.23% (=)|8.23% (=)|

Overall: I don't have time to do real money sportsbook comparisons but I can tell that 1xbit match winner margin is less than Pinnacle (4.83%) but Over/under and Handicap still have high margin.
