I am recently dissapointed with your odds. They used to be higer on average at least for horses, however I am not going to bet anymore with you. Sorry and good luck.

We compare our odds to the industry average on a regular basis and find them to be very competitive.

I'd appreciate if you can PM me bets where you believe our odds are bad or wrong and we will investigate it. In your e-mail, please let us know where you were able to find the same bet(s) at significantly better odds.

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 up to 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.

Although I wish the betslip showed "Possible Winnings" based on the wager amount and the odds.  

this sounds like a very nice idea. Especially when you do 6 or 7 bet parlays this would be a helpful feature in order to
determine the right betsize (many users like to rather win 10 BTC instead of 9.867 BTC   )

I´m also quite sure that this could be programmed without much effort.

Our bet slips do not require you to enter an amount. The bet amount is determined by how much you send to the designated address.

So do you want us to display how much you are expected to win after we receive your transfer ? It's basically the received amount multiplied by the bet decimal odds. Is that what you're looking for ?

Or perhaps you are looking for a calculator that will tell you how much you need to send to win a particular amount, i.e. how much to bet to win 10 BTC, before you send your bet ?

I like the idea of "possible profit" after the transfer. I can do the math myself but if you have multiple bets and you're looking to parlay it would make things easier especially if you're doing a last minute wager. The idea of "Bet x to Win X" is ok too, I think that will get you more noobs to make wagers. I say noobs as in the people who aren't familiar with sports betting and want a clear cut example of risk/reward.

I'm cool with just seeing the possible profit on the ticket after the transfer.

Your transfer may also get delayed if you did not include the required transactional fee. If this is the case, please wait patiently, your bet will be processed as soon as it is received.

For fastest instant Bitcoin delivery, we recommend that you use Bitcoin Core or its lighter version Multibit and pay the necessary Bitcoin transactional fee. These wallets can be downloaded from here. If you prefer a web wallet we recommend BlockChain.Info
