So should I make this bet?

[ironm@n]

Go all in man, there's no rush better then the feeling of going all in and winning! Best feeling in the world.

Oh, man. I'm really sorry that you are thinking that way, because it's so typical for a gambling addict. I hope you were joking though.

What I really can't understand in the OP is why it was impossible to withdraw the winnings? The OP is saying of this like it was predetermined, but why?

if i have 1 bitcoin, i think i don't want to go all in but i will only use half or small part for make a bet because i am to afraid to see if somehow i only get loss. i think its because i don't have much of bitcoin so i don't think its good for me to directly get loss with 1 bitcoin. but its depend on what OP want and i only can say good luck with your bet and i hope the OP can win the games.

I also would not put that amount of money into gambling. I think gambling can be a good way to have fun, and maybe make some money. However, I'm not in a hurry, so holding Bitcoin seems to be a better way to make a profit in the crypto space, and the level of risk is acceptable, in my opinion.
This is something that depends on each one, there are people who have lots of money, so it may not be a big problem for them to invest one Bitcoin in gambling.

to me even 1 bitcoin is a big amount to invest in gambling, that is really out of my budget, i think it more that my one month gambling budget. gambling is a risky game for every one either he has good experience in gambling or fresh and new. although the one has a little advantage of previous experience but still no one can for sure that he will win in gambling.

I think he already used that money to play again and lost. So sad to read it. There is a lesson from this story. Self control is very important not only when we did gamble, but when we faced a technical problem, we have to keep patient and don't let such problem gives a big impact to our games. Try to fix the problem first before we decide to play another games.

[Noctis Connor]

wow. that's very huge amount of winning well if i where you i would wait until the support team replied on me . maybe there's a problem about their system but don't worry they will give you your winnings. just be patience or try other bitcoin wallet address . works on me when coinbase is not available i cant get my winnings so i use other bitcoin wallet site. and it workds.

[OrangeII]

it was a good win. sometimes taking a risk is in need, but you have to accept all that is likely to happen to you if you fail. however, win the game it was really very good. perhaps at this moment you have to be quiet, because if you try to do the same thing, and then fails, all your pleasures will be lost.

[maydna]

Taking a major bet with one whole BTC with funds that are not available for me to use anyways.

So my question is: Should I do it and take the risk? Since it the sportsbook site is not allowing me to to withdraw my winnings on their site for the last 12 hours with no response from them when I have tried to contact them all day today.
how do i print screen

This would be a big thing if it did win and this would definitely not count in my favor if it did actually win.
But I have been taking high risk bets since they told me I could not withdraw and have made 0.5btc into 1.15btc since.

i think it is up to you sir because only you that can manage your bitcoin but i only can give suggestion that maybe you don't have to use 1 bitcoin to make a bets, but maybe you can do with less amount for example 0.5 bitcoin or less from that. but if you are really sure for the games, then go ahead with high bets.

Feelings regarding on this scenario of winning would be really great and most gamblers already experienced this thing. Regarding on the situation if you do have the balls to make another bet with 1 bitcoin then you should do it as if you know the risk if you will failed and about the problem of no response from the support on the site seems too suspicious for me.

Lol what? did you deposit fiat or tried to withdrawal fiat? or was it all pure bitcoin? this isn't a new thing and not only gambling services but eobot(cloud mining scam) did the same thing with my brother, after a few month of mining they blocked his account and said sorry you are not verified so you wont get any coins.
When fiat money is not involved anyone telling you to provide ID for withdrawing bitcoin is just trying to scam you and you should know this already.
If you can send credits to other users then better try that sending to your alt but if they are doing this with all players then no use in doing that and this will be the end of their business.

Yes it seems that they pulled what happened on the Eobot scam.
They have no right for asking for ID to prove anything when it is to with bitcoins. People are anonoymous using it and want to stay that way. Even when I did send it they denied to send me the bitcoins which pissed me right off. Directbet.eu does not involve themselves in asking for ID when making and settling your bets so what makes them think and all the other casinos dealing with bitcoins think they have the right to ask for this before allowing a withdrawal of any amount!? That makes absolutely no sense to anyone with a brain in their head!
Screw these guys and their f*cked up casino.
They will have their casino and their connection to the other ones they own audited and sued for embezzlement soon enough.  I swear that will happen the way they think they can get away with stealing bitcoins from people this way.
I have no worry on that from happening.

Yes seems the match already finished. I guess we can learn something from this, the first when you doubt for gambling, better you do not force yourself to gamble because everything begins with doubt will ended with disaster and also when you doubt on something never put huge money or you will regret.

They are stealing funds and not paying their players when they win coming up with everything possible outside of the law of their license to not pay them their winnings. This in itself is not right!
They are out of the U.K I have valid reason to believe this but their casino(s) are registered in Cuaco where they think just having them licensed their they are safe from the law and where they think nobody can touch them when stealing from their customers. This is embezzling funds which is illegal in any part of the world under all legal jurisdictions no matter where they think they are protected in where operating out of.

[LLec]

Really that was amazing better contact support because if you try to play again means you will loose those money also. It's better quit the game and try to withdraw that amount, if you want to play again try with small amounts if possible.

What do you think i did?
Support did nothing for this and just made it worst by delaying and delaying it until I just put it all down so I can just finish with them.
They came up with a false accusation that I had 10 different accounts which has no merit in this case because their is substantial way to prove that they were my accounts. As I mentioned to PeepsPlace during that time which was the Christmas/New years holidays I had over 10 other people using the same connection that I was on when I registered for the sportsbet account. The other people here wanted to try their luck too so they all wanted to compete against each other with using this site.
So we were all using wifi connection and that is connected to the same internet connection. So of course they will show up as the same ip address. No kidding! But that is a loophole that they can put in place when ever they want too in order not to have to pay anyone they do not want to with this clause in their shady TOS rules. I just knew they were going to pull a fast one and not pay me out my rightful winnings so I put it all in an attempt to empty out the account so I can close it. And I eventually did and told them I would make sure they do not dupe any one else on the forums to fall for their scamming casino sites (vegascasino.io / bitcasino.io / sportsbet.io all are under the same owner! So avoid all of them. You can confirm this by just connecting to the live chat on each site you will see the same person's name is going to connect to you. )and their scamming ways.

You might want to put Sportsbet.io in a D rated site to place bets on.
They freeze you from making withdraws when they just feel like it or when you have a substantial amount of bitcoins to withdraw.
You can read about it on my thread when i won more than 1 bitcoin in my account and had my withdrawal denied all the sudden when I just did 1 withdrawal previously of 60mbtc with in a time frame of 24 hours prior.
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1738312.msg17590963#msg17590963

If that is unethical to do to a participant on a site that they place alot of bets on then I don't know what is.
They also are the same owners of bitcasino.io and several others under the same brand.
All from the same pile.

Thanks for the information. It will definitely be looked into.

Do I have permission to ask sportsbet.io about your account? Books require it before they talk to a 3rd party.

Go ahead. Cause I did everything that they asked for. Submitting my identification on their site to receive payment from what their support told me. I have that archived. But they base it on not knowing that there are several individuals who use the internet connection where I was staying at during that time period I was using their site. It was the freaking holidays for god's sake!
There are 25 people visiting and in the very same house hold. If half of them want to use the same internet connection on their devices then who am I to regulate who goes to which site on the connection?
That is their basis of not allowing me to withdraw within a 24 hour period of the last one that was successfully processed mind you only 60 mbtc and not the 429mbtc that I requested that was denied all the sudden because they saw the same connection come in just a week ago which was Christmas day for fucks sake. I have over 10 cousins and brothers that go on the internet and are wanting to use the same sites as the others use. They are sheep you know that want to go and do what the others are doing to "get into the action" so to speak.
It is wifi and it is secured so they do not have right to come up with excuses such as these that they have given me.
I have since asked them to close the account so I have nothing more to do with them.
If they argue with me on this or do anymore accusations on me with my internet activity using their site I will sue them because they asked me to send in my passport and proof of address which is illegal where I live! These companies do not have the right to give out any confidential information about their players and in closing my account none should be on their system and on their files about me.
You can ask them but all they can tell you is of what happened as I have just told to you right here.
Once closed it should be erased from them and their customer database. Which I highly doubt it either.

PM sent. They have been good in the past in getting back so we should hear from them soon.

Pure bitcoin books should only ask for KYC information in rare circumstances. One reason for using these books is to remain anonymous.

If a book sees 10 accounts from the same IP, they should say something immediately. Don't free roll the player by accepting losses and not paying winners.

[South Park]

Wow that's truly an achievement congratulations to you.

Lost both parlays of one with 1 bitcoin on the line because of the high odds for basketball game at 7.29 so did not expect to win that one.
The other one was for 150mbtc with only one game off by 2 points with a 2 second shot at the end. All other games won and would of had me at 1.25b.
So easy come easy go as they say with gambling for high stakes.
I did start this with 50mbtc anyways. So no big loss for me.

It seems that this is the update that I've been waiting for and it's very unfortunate to know that you lose and it looks like that you are forced to bet with those games. I guess you will not now use sportsbet.io because of that. Try to sports bet with some other good gambling site.

It seems that they held my funds just for this reason because as their review department that they had my account looked at by them knew that I was into taking high-risk bets from my previous parlays that I have done. And was counting on me putting it all on several parlays.

And to the others who are posting after my update post:
I lost the parlay with 1 bitcoin! So the 3 days of winning is over.
It wasn't so great while it lasted because I wasn't going to see that bitcoin anyways and now that my balance is next to zero they will say it is ok to do withdraws from the account. A little to late for that now isn't it?

Man, you should have opened a scam accusation against them and stop betting on the site, some websites don't have automatic withdrawals or  they don't have automatic withdrawals for new members, it’s obvious that any sport book is in business to make money so by delaying your withdrawal they tempted you to bet again and you lost.

Someone with 10 accounts, usually would use a VPN to have different IPs. Therefore, to say 10 same IPs = one account holder is nonsense!

They can also see the operating system of the pc and I am pretty sure that it was not 10 times the same, if different users.

I don't think the IP should be a big issue here, there are people who are just using prepaid connection, hence every time you connect to the internet you will be given a ramdom IP and most likely it will not be the same the as your IP address before. I don't understand what really is the problem here but if everything should be based on the terms and condition of the sportsbet.io.

[sir.humus]

I once was betting on bet365.
Since betting is illegal in my country I wasn't sure they'll accept me.
But I tried, and they did accept my money and my bet.
Then I won, but when I wanted to withdraw my winnings they said my account is not verified.
I tried to get it verified but with no success.
So I just keep on betting over and over again until I lost it all.
Since then I always make bet with a little amount and try to withdraw before putting in a lot of cash.

Exactly!
That should not matter I know.
They are just a bastardized site. That is clear to all here now after all of this has surfaced.
I do not lose sleep at night over any of this.
They will find themselves going under for their operating methods & crooked ways.
I am certain of this.

I think he already used that money to play again and lost. So sad to read it. There is a lesson from this story. Self control is very important not only when we did gamble, but when we faced a technical problem, we have to keep patient and don't let such problem gives a big impact to our games. Try to fix the problem first before we decide to play another games.

Losing a bitcoin in single bet is really an heart breaking event. I never make such a big single bet, maybe because i cant afford to lose that much. But think for a min, if he had won with 1 BTC and doubled it, Wow that would have been great for him. I can only say better luck next time.

[chixka000]

As you have said you can't withdraw it for 12 hrs,, How much more if your amounts get higher the time hold would also increase? IMO you have to just wait and withdraw your amounts that is the best thing that you could do right now (wait)

Already you made good profit better it is not wise to move further because you will be in risk position if you move further, it's better wait for 12 hrs and withdraw your money that is the best way to do it right now.
