Hi guys, firstly I am sorry for being a bit of a newb. I only joined the forums yesterday but am looking to become an active member. If this is in the wrong section, please tell me Smiley

I am looking to set up a sportsbetting site by october the latest, and have most things already in motion. But I just wanted to know your opinion on what feature would persuade you to use a new sportsbetting site, as opposed to the one you are currently using?

The kind of things that I want to offer is basics such as, instant deposit/withdrawal, low vig, range of sports etc.

But other than these basics, are there any more features - can be general or extremely specific - that would make you want to use a new betting site?

One feature that I am looking to implement is implementing a real time live betting system. However, this costs like thousands of dollars a year in subscription, so want to know all you betting fanatics out there if this would be worth it?

Of course, being a new site I suspect our bet limit would start off low, maybe 2BTC, but this will increase over time given that the site does well enough.

Thanks for any responses in advance guys Smiley

Not to be rude, but the market is already quite saturated with bitcoin sportsbooks and what books offer. Max 20 BTC bets, live betting, a sportsmatch site with 1% vig, etc. I know you probably have worked hard on it and all but it truly would be very hard to beat the current big BTC sportsbooks here. Currently the lowest lines are -104/-104 for any action, -101 for matched bets on another site. If you can do better than yes please join the industry, otherwise I would advise investing else where. Not trying to be mean but telling you the truth. I tried offering a small sportsbook with a lot of benefits and features and there was almost no interest because of the huge limits and already very low vig with the other books.

The only major thing missing is the exotic offerings such as runlines for 1st 5 innings in MLB or buying/selling points for 1st quarter or 1st half for games. Or 2nd half betting for soccer and other sports. Props also. Honestly focusing on just the things mentioned might give you a shot.

Good luck to you regardless.

Plenty of room for another sportsbook work on offering lower vig for live betting the ones currently available are way to high in juice.
