DirectBet still solid in payouts?

Over $6000 paid out to me here - https://www.directbet.eu/BetStatus.cshtml?BetID=0x0e000d70affdd8b421fca7a3a3b5953b287771d7

The only people crying about not being paid are people who have what appear to be legitimate claims of double spending pointed at them.

They're an honest book, but given the anonymous nature of it you should always play with caution as zero recourse if something goes wrong.  Personally I wouldn't bet any long term events here (or with any other anonymous bookmaker) as who knows what happens 1,3,12 months from now. But a sporting event lasting 2 hours?  You'd need to be horribly unlucky if they got hacked or anything else went wrong in that tiny time window.  I've had probably 10 or so 4 figure USD payments from them and they've all been paid out instantly.

I'd happily wager $10k on Leicester to win their game on the weekend with them, bet placed before game starts and if my bet goes well then money back in my hands 105 minutes later.  Would I use them to bet on Leicester to win the league and need to wait 8 months? Probably not.

$10k?! Betfair to stake such high amounts at Betfair - DirectBet copying Betfair and reduces 15-20%
Would love to bet there but my account is locked there.

There is no way Directbet reduces the odds by that much percentage. It would be obvious and more people would have complained if that was true. You should look at the odds on flashscore , as it displays the odds on majority of sites and then decide on placing your bet if you are getting good odds.

For football I've seen DirectBet offering the same odds as Paddy Power.  For MMA fights sometimes the odds aren't quite so competitive as what would easily be available to me with a 'real' bookmaker back in UK (i.e. pay with my credit card, actually know who i'm gambling with, have recourse if something goes wrong, cant be a hacking bag holder etc etc etc)

Just checking a random game now on DirectBet:

Match Odds
Hull @ 3.25
Leicester @ 2.14
The Draw @ 3.05

on PaddyPower:

Hull 5/2 Draw 9/4 Leicester 21/20

$10 on at 2.14 would return $21.40 with Direct Bet.

$10 on at 21/20 would return $20.50 with Paddy Power

Hi Marino1,

Thank you for your interest in DirectBet

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. Odds might also reduce when there is a heavy betting on a particular selection.

When comparing our odds, please note of the following :

• We offer the most rewarding VIP program in the industry, where you can earn unlimited 10 BTC in bonuses every month, so essentially, if you bet frequently, the odds that you are getting are much higher than the quoted odds. In addition, those who bet frequently earn additional bonuses from various other promotions that we run, such as our regular sports betting contests.
• Other cryptocurrency Sportbooks might offer slightly higher odds, but will limit your action to micro stakes. We do not impose ridiculously low maximum bet sizes. The max bet amount is directly related to the odds provided.
• We have introduced a new feature that allows you to negotiate the odds and you can use it to obtain better odds for your bets. We have implemented this feature for the advantage of those of you who want better odds and it is especially useful when the odds are not yet established.

That being said, we have several big winners here and if you shop around you will find some great betting opportunities and unique bets that are not available in other cryptocurrency Sportbooks.

We also have the best promotions like the Double VIP Rewards on Ether bets which is very significant, special bonuses & prediction games and a Free to Enter Tipsters Championship that we are currently running : https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1248467

Please feel free to contact us if you have any questions.

All the Best,

Michelle

Listen, I generally like you guys, but can you give me one example of a bet currently offered in your book where your book has the "highest odds"? 

[~Bitcoin~]

Has done betting several time in directbet with bitcoin. Later on you guys have added ethereum, are you guys also planning to have ethereum classic in near future?

They always have the worst odds. They are the only book that asked not to be on line comparison sites https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1566142.0

We do not currently have plans to add ETC, but we are monitoring the situation and will re-evaluate at a later date.

Look for example at the upcoming match :

Dortmund v Man City

We offer many bets there at the highest odds. For example, Dortmund Draw No Bet is listed @ 1.92, and if you are a frequent bettor with Ether you are essentially getting 1.96. Man City Draw No Bet is listed at 1.91 and with the VIP rewards it is effectively 1.95.

Under 2.5 goals at effective odds of 2.18 is the highest around, etc.

Keep in mind that if you bet frequently at DirectBet you are essentially getting better odds than quoted on the website.

Next time post the real odds not a made up effective odds. How does 1.92 become 1.96 when your bonus is 20mBTC for every 5 BTC bet?
