Nice setup but the high vig means you aren't going to get much action.

Lower the hold and increase volume. It's a simple way to doing business in a competitive environment.

The site isn't down and actually never really was, except for when we put the maintenance/upgrade page up for a couple hours during the actual transition. The issue is that, unfortunately, some ISP's take longer than others to register DNS changes (it can take up to 48hrs depending on your ISP). You might want to reboot your modem, if you are on cable or DSL, and clear your cache, then refresh the www.coinbet.cc main page. At that point you should be 100% on the new platform. If not, it could be an issue with your ISP just being slow to "catch on" to the DNS change. We tried to make the switch as seamless as possible, but we also did not want to have the site showing a maintenance page for too long for those ISP's that updated quickly.

Most people are currently seeing the upgraded site and new platform and playing without problems. If you have any further issues though, please do email us at support@coinbet.cc

We do apologize for any inconvenience, but hope that the upgraded platform and further new options we are implementing will improve your overall experience. In addition to our sportsbook and casino games, we now have a whole bunch more games, a more intuitive platform, live dealer action, and lots more. As always, we value your suggestions and feedback, so feel free to email us and let you know what you'd like to see us add or change.

Thanks!

Look at that address I posted for sbobitcoin. What are your thoughts on that? Am i wrong in my assumption that its sketchy? It looks as if they have a small amount of deposits but take high bets. Looks like they are 1 big winners away from running. I am sorry to be a pain but I was looking to deposit 20 coins and do 3-5 btc wagers on ncaa tomorrow.

nscala1 - SBObitcoin.com is an agent. They accept one's bitcoins and then deposit 4k in Hong Kong dollars per bitcoin into the book of one's choice of the 3 they are agents for.

They are not taking large bets - Pinnacle, SBOBet and IBCBet take the action and payout. When one cashes out, SBobitcoin collects from the book, and then pays out at the same rate they took in - 4k HKD pays out one bitcoin.

I assume they're storing their btc in cold storage, or convert it to another currency until a cashout.
I'm not sure of this, but I don't see how they could only have taken in 105 btc since opening a few months ago.

I haven't tried a cashout yet. Perhaps i will withdraw what's left in the sportsbook account, and then redeposit it later in the week, just for the experience.

Can others who use sbobitcoin comment please on their experiences.

I took a payout with no problem although I forget if it was instant or not. I went through live chat to do it.

Well, I have tried btcsportsmatch.com and heres my review.


Deposits are near instant. Cashouts are literally instant and automated.

Bets are vig free and great. Might be a tad harder to get action on every single thing you want but when you do it is vig free. Winner of the bet pays 1%. The odds do not compare to anything else. Btcsportsmatch blows it away. Coming as a big player from bit book, I am extremely happy with this site.

You should reconsider your review of grading this book a D. Payouts are instant and betting odds are second to none.

Thanks, I will definitely look into it. Were you making offers or accepting? What did you think of the liquidity of the different markets?

If the team I liked already had an offer on the side I just accepted it. If it didn't i posted it. I was able to get people to accept my offers fairly quickly. Its great for people like me who bet 2-10 BTC a game.

That's great to hear. When I played with them there wasn't any liquidity and when my offers were accepted sometimes I got a different line. I'll go back and try it out again since it's been a while and it looks like things have greatly changed.

They cater to the larger players (small players can still get action), and are impartial as you are not betting against the site like the other books. and 1% is much lower than betfair or matchbook, for the guys who can bet there.

If you hop on the site at any given time, I admit the liquidity is not very high. BUT when i put offers up they were accepted. I am absolutely loving it and my review is completely unbiased. Good luck if you try it. I am dickieV on the website.

From your previous posts, I believe what you say 100%. At first glance it looks as though they are using Pinny no-vig for their MLs. It also looks as though they aren't seeding (placing their own bets) which is a great thing for us since they are not risking anything. That was just a first impression.

Thats funny you said that. The first thing i tried to do when I was glancing at the site was check if they were seeding. It most definitely seems they are not. They never have a losing day because they only make 1% of action so they have no reason to go under from a bad run like most books.

I just received verification on this. If you make an offer at BTCSportsmatch and there is a line change, your offer will stand at the new line. They also have a chat feature. It currently shows 9 members online.

Were your offers accepted immediately or did you have to wait some time?

Books- I don't want to take this thread too far off course but the NCAA tournament is right around the corner and the following may be of interest to players:

1. Are you taking bets on the individual games? sides, totals, props?
2. What are the limits?
3. Will you have live betting?

Hi Waylon, thank you for the response. Our initially very high vig was unfortunately an error from our dev department and we are attending to the problem. Our hold will definitely be competitive.

Kind regards,

The BetVIP team

DirectBet :

1. We take bets on individual NCAA games. We offer bets on MoneyLine, Total Match Points and Spreads.

Currently there are 4 games available for betting :
http://www.directbet.eu/Events.cshtml?EventType=Basketball

2. The maximum amount you can profit from each individual bet is approx. 7.8 BTC, so if for example the bet decimal odds is 1.5, the maximum you can bet is approx. 15.5 BTC.

3. Yes.
