Directbet,

what happened to you guys?
you used to have great odds across the board.
why did you change your model/ what made you change it?

look for instance wimbledon tennis tomorrow. you are sistematically offering lower/ lowest odds for the different matchs compared to your competitor?
it was different before.

any explanations?

I remember them changing odds in the past, might be due to the same reason. Either way, they have shown lower odds in the past recent weeks compared to other games . Most of the soccer games still show odds of around 1.01 for over 1 , almost on all games.

Well they are giving still the best odds for in-play I believe , i placed some bet on wimbeldon at player djokovic after he lost 2 sets with 1.76 , while most other sportsbook were giving hardly 1.66 or 1.72 , so please wait for odds to increase or set a negotiate bet

Never compared the in play odds, but yes not all games have poor odds, but many do. However for bitcoin its the only book offering live betting for now, so thats the good part . They do lose out on a lot of players just because of lower odds.

The odds always seem to change for me. Sometimes so fast that the bet Im placing becomes invalid. Was the spread really way off from others for a long duration of time? Im sure most books use the same algorithms to configure the odds..

We have not made any changes to our odds recently.

Can you please PM me specific Wimbledon bets where you believe the odds are out of order ? Thanks.

When comparing our odds, please note that we offer the most rewarding VIP program in the industry, where you can earn unlimited BTC in bonuses every month, so essentially, if you bet frequently, the odds that you are getting are much higher than the quoted odds.

You will also be able to find better odds closer to the event start time, and can use the Negotiate Odds betting option to negotiate better odds.

We explain this in more details here :

Bets are confirmed with 0 confirmation. Payouts are issued after 1 confirmation.

I wanted to start betting so I chose directbet since it seems to be the most popular site here. But the fact that the blockchain is overloaded now makes it bad since you send every transaction immidiately.. Wanted to make some more bets today

Update on Bitcoin Confirmations Delay

Betting with Bitcoins is working well as usual now.

We were able to solve the issue that caused some payouts not to confirm. Please e-mail support@directbet.eu if you have any unconfirmed payout.

Please note that due to the current network state and the fees that we pay for very small payouts, it may take hours for payouts smaller than 0.01 BTC to confirm.

If you like to bet with micro stakes, we recommend that you use Dogecoin, Litecoin or DASH instead. These altcoins are much more suitable for betting with micro stakes, and your payouts will confirm within seconds or minutes.

Please note that due to the current network state and the fees that we pay for very small payouts, it may take hours for payouts smaller than 0.01 BTC to confirm.

Why don't you just charge transaction fees from the betting amount themselves ? Would be much convenient for the person betting small amounts as well.

Thanks for your suggestion.

Currently we prefer to cover the transactional fees for our clients, but we will consider giving an option to set the fees.

In normal network conditions, there is no problem with the fees that we pay for payouts smaller than 0.01 BTC and they confirm rather quickly within a few blocks.

We believe the current delay for small payouts is only temporarily, due to the current Bitcoin network issues, and that all payouts will soon confirm quickly as usual.

sent them a help request with the online form they have .  we shall see how fast they get to a customer.  hope they can help.  have 12+ hour old  unconfirmed wagers that were accepted at directbet.  one was a winning horse race, and the other trying that fun low takeout head up all in poker.  I guess its ok if that bet never gets placed and just goes back into blockchain  as the random event did not happen on it  (dont know if it won or lost)  but the horse race was a win...

Direct bet can y ou check on the odds for this game  ?
Matkowski/Vesnina v Kubot/Hlavackova

Odds on Direcbet for the stronger team is much less than the usually. The other books are offering odds at 1.66 and only 1.5 on direct bet.

Also saw odds on the opponent underdog were more as to balance it. This could actually back fire as the opponents are playing well and are leading . Glad I didn't make the bet.
