I'm trying to find Ryan's ratings prior to DirectBet bringing in the shills. I copied this at one point but the quote stopped w/o all the books. DirectBet was #7. I do like Ryan's guide because it is poster generated but can be tainted by shills.

Two separate bets on the Sigma FC vs Masters FA game, both bets I sent doge before goals were scored, both times your system took too long to confirm and betting got suspended before you accepted my bet. So your lacklusture systems probably cost me 25k DOGE this time.

I investigated your bets. In both of them a goal was scored before the bets were received \ processed.

When betting LIVE in-play during soccer games please note that if you're watching the game on TV or through the Internet you're seeing it in a delay. Our automated betting system knows that a goal was scored before you actually see it on TV. It may appear to you that you have placed your bet before the goal was scored, but you may have actually placed it after the goal was scored.

Also, it does take a few seconds from the time that you send your bet to the time it is received and processed. While this is not instant, note that other Sportbooks force a betting delay anyhow when you bet in-play. This is done in order not to give an unfair advantage to those who are betting in-play while physically presenting in the game.

The few seconds it takes for your bet transfer to arrive and process is equivalent to such in-play delays that are forced anyhow by other books.

If after reading the above explanation you're still unsatisfied, please PM me and we'll work it out.

DirectBet isn't on par with the "A" and "B" books.

Not sure who these "a" and "b" people are, but DirectBet officially has the 2nd highest rating by members of this forum out of the 18 different betting sites that received votes. (The person collecting member votes did not receive any payments/bribes from any of the books, therefore would be the most official rating thread on the forum.)

Regarding DB scores, it is obvious that most of them came from shill accounts.

We have not used shill accounts to rate ourselves there. All votes are from our clients whom we don't know personally.

We have been the victim of shill accounts, not the beneficial. Several users rated us 1, a rating that is reserved for scams, without any explanation, including yourself.

That's why our rating was initially lower, but as more votes kicked in, the rating became more accurate.

They were #9 until DirectBet brought in a lot of new posters giving DirectBet top votes. If you look at other rating sites, DirectBet is never near the top.

I have nothing against Ryan, and it's good to have multiple rating sites, but bitcoinlivebets was #3 until they went under stealing player's funds. We had a different view point.

bitcoinlivebets is a very shaky book. They have problems on almost a daily basis and automation is never fully working. Each person has different reasons for playing at a book. I think that bitcoinlivebets is at the top of the list of the next book to go under although I hope it's not the case.

i think not everyone agree with you, why still posting in this thread..

Go out doug, ou have your own thread... dont be ridiculous..

we all dis.agree with this, so stop posting this on DirectBets thread..

get out here.. and have your own life.. dont be a stupid dick..

why do i always read your stupid post here on directbet..

you always force yourself on others peoples thought.. why not ask them one by one..

because most of the negative comments here, came from you and only you..

it just really2 show, that you are a puppet of paid advertising..

and i dont know, what the mods are doing with the kinds of you, i think you need to be ban..

I've told DirectBet that I have no right to call them out in their thread if their poll is down. With the misleading poll being up, I'll post information to show that "A" and "B" books are better than DirectBet. Those books earned their ratings.

Peeps, you realize I would think not many people are looking at the poll, but then you keep bumping the thread and people might see the poll, right?

He just asks if people think it's fair that you receive money and give ratings.  Isn't that true, that you do do that?  So I don't get what the problem is.

Why don't you refund non-runners in horse racing? A nice acca I had was ruined by a non-runner and I was puzzled as to why it wasn't just pushed out and the rest of the acca/toto paid. Instead I just lost.

It's misleading since "Reagan" is the owner at peepsplace that puts up all banners and pays the bills at peepsplace. DirectBet is also wrong most of the time to the business relationships that peepsplace has with the books.

 There are many times that books with banners aren't the top rated books. Cloudbet had a "C+" rating while having a banner up at peepsplace. DirectBet just throws a lot of crap on the wall to see what sticks.

Reagan could put up a banner from every book and take them as affiliates but he's not going to ruin his reputation.

If your horse did not run your bet should be pushed.

Please e-mail support@directbet.eu your bet ID and we will gladly look into it.

Hi, why are the lines for the NFL pre-season worse then the industry standards? It's -123.5 and -112.4 for the TB/Jacksonville game tonight at +1.5/-1.5. I think I'm going to have to find a new book, since this isn't even remotely beatable long term.

Odds for everything have got worse & worse lately. I've been using DirectBet for a few months, past few weeks I've been having Bet365 open alongside DB and not once have DB's odds been better than B365.

Hi, why are the lines for the NFL pre-season worse then the industry standards?

We offer many bets at the highest odds, but for some bets, odds might be reduced if they are not reliable. Generally, you will be able to find better odds as we get closer to the event start time as odds are more reliable at that time so please check back later. Also particularly for the NFL, we will be able to offer better odds as we get deeper into the season.

You can also try to negotiate better odds using the Negotiate Odds betting option. This is especially useful in such situations where the odds are not reliable, as it is likely that your bet will confirm at higher odds closer to the start of the event.

There are many times that books with banners aren't the top rated books.

Historically, the top 3 rated books in Peeps Place "ratings guide" were always the 3 books that paid for banners at www.PeepsPlace.com

BetcoinSports purchased a banner on www.PeepsPlace.com last month and lo and behold, they immediately got upgraded !

Previously, CloudBet had a banner at www.PeepsPlace.com and they were ranked 3rd. Now their banner was replaced by BetcoinSports and as a result BetcoinSports are now ranked 3rd and Cloudbet went down the rankings.

These are the facts. Pure facts.
