Hello !

It's a hybrid-exchange. An exchange meaning you wager against other players, not the site. You do not post bids and offers based on odds, the site calculates all odds at true vig-free (overround correction) and keeps them updated. That is why you see NY Knicks +187/Indiana Pacers -187, for example. True-vig free, good luck finding better on either site!

You can think of it as a vig-free bet matching service rather than an exchange. Someone can post for the Knicks, someone else comes along and wants the Pacers, then they are matched and a bet is created. You can see the open orders (people listed directly under the side they want, with amount) - but you cannot see what has already been matched. So the liquidity is greater than what is visible.

Feel free to pm or email with any other questions!

I won't derail your thread - but yes, all else being equal posting up is just as safe, if not a safer model.

I've heard complaints about line changes with the guys running the 'send coins to bet xxxx' model. Send coins at one line, have it booked at another (typically worse) line.

The reason the post up model is just as safe, with a trusted bitcoin book that has automated deposits and withdrawals - is that many players post up, bet, and withdraw directly after a game. Rinse, repeat several times a day. Risk is exactly the same as the no-account model.

We're not talking about the dinosaur model of having to leave funds offshore because it's such a pain to fund.

Anyway, best of luck and please keep us updated on the situation!

Definitely a black eye for the entire community, really hope you get paid.

There is a reason most people stick to the few established books, most of these places barely have 2 months experience let alone 2 years+

People thinking that making wagers by sending btc per bet is somehow safer than having accounts is clearly a joke. You must trust the operator period, end of story.

The Texas/Houston game has been seeded!

Currently -149/+149 on the moneyline. Ridiculously better than 'dimeline' or whatever the others are claiming to be the best odds of a bitcoin book Smiley

good luck everuone!

MLB Baseball is back - look no further than the best odds around.

Opening game Texas vs Houston:

Sun 3/31 20:05    997    Texas Rangers
M. Harrison -1.5   +115            -145    OVER 8.5   +109
   
Sun 3/31 20:05    998    Houston Astros
B. Norris    +1.5   -115            +145  UNDER 8.5   -109    

True no-vig 1% fee on won amount only. Better than any book out there, and we will be seeding some MLB games!!
13  Economy / Gambling / Re: BTCSportsMatch - Best SportsBetting odds on the planet! on: March 23, 2013, 03:01:43 AM

16  Economy / Gambling / Re: BTCSportsMatch - Best SportsBetting odds on the planet! on: March 20, 2013, 03:53:43 PM
it wont let me make an account

Hello, please contact email supoort for any issues - but on the Signup page, make sure the asterisks next to the fields are removed prior to hitting Submit. They enforce field length minimums, etc.

Thanks!

Yes, if you are concerned about lines moves, you should stick to matching other users existing open orders (so a bet is created right away, at the listed odds) rather than leave open orders yourself.

The lines moving is to protect users who don't want to stare at the screen all day and adjust their orders or get scalped by a pro like at a traditional exchange.

Thanks for the feedback!

this forum is littered with newcomers in the sportsbetting arena...
...No concern about backing or financial stability of one of these newcomer sites.

I believe the BTC community owes thanks to early adopters like yourself for helping build the credibility of the currency. However, as we continue to grow bitcoin it is destructive to peddle fear to your advantage, like a cable news station looking to boost short term ratings.

Yes, the bitcoin community attracts scammers. Yes, some new sites will turn out to be fraudulent.

However, there are also many honest, trustworthy bitcoin sites being created that we should celebrate, not scorn. I say this as one of the newcomers that you say has “littered” this forum. My site, BitBook.biz, works very hard to build trust for bitcoin by processing deposits and withdrawals within minutes of blockchain confirmation (something notably absent from your service). We encourage new users to deposit and withdraw as frequently as they would like, so they can personally build trust for our service and bitcoin in general.

As a member of the BTC community I am grateful for your contribution, but competition from innovative newcomers is good for everyone.

Trust is built over time - I didn't mean to point the finger at anyone in particular, but the list of failed/scam ventures from 2011 and 2012 is unfortunately long. Good luck with your site!

Hello,

Since this forum is littered with newcomers in the sportsbetting arena, we thought we'd clarify a few things about our site as it has been mentioned before:

1) We are affiliated with BTCSportsBet - the oldest and most trusted Bitcoin Sportsbook. No concern about backing or financial stability of one of these newcomer sites.

2) We're a hybrid exchange; that is, like an exchange you match other users. Unlike a traditional exchange, the odds are constantly updated so all bets take place at the current, vig-free odds at the time of the match. This means that users don't have to watch the odds and adjust their orders all the time if the market moves.

3) What does vig free mean? We use the true vig-free calculation (overround correction) so that both sides receives the same, accurate odds at the time. Nearly all spread wagers are at EVEN (or +100, or 2.0, whichever you prefer). It means that a moneyline favorite of -247 means the person with the underdog gets +247

4) What's the catch? The winner of each bet pays a flat 1% fee on won amount only. That's it. That is cheaper than BetFair or Matchbook, and quite simply the best odds on the planet. It is like paying -100.5 or 1.99 on each bet instead of the normal -110 or 1.91

We've had some positive reviews on SBR (that have unfortunately been deleted with the other bitcoin threads) and 2+2. So if you are really concerned about getting the best odds for your sportsbets, check us out. If you don't get matched, then go ahead and bet at a traditional sportsbook like btcsportsbet.

We will also be seeding NCAA Tournament games so users can get action on either side at vig-free,

Let us know of any questions!
